I'm curious to know whether extended supplementary use of sulfurs (MSM, NAC) can also overburden? And if so, how to wean-off/clear. I began my own use during my father's long, unsuccessful battle against RA, hoping not to succumb to the same. I find in fact that it has now struck me 10 years earlier than it did him. I take 1200mg NAC, 5000mg - 10,000 mg Vit C, high dose B3 (only recently begun, to combat RA), and a B complex (methyl not cyan cobalamine), 7000-10,000mg MSM, 10,000mg collagen daily.
(You're busy, I'm sure so so I just include this FYI - please don't feel obliged to answer individually, but if you drop back into the subject of sulfur clearance issues, I'm keen to hear your thoughts on supplementary use.)
I'm still learning about it myself. My symptoms included worsening arthritis like joint pain in my hands. Acidity seems to be a causal factor. To try to get back to stable health I stopped NAC, MSM, methionine and taurine and switched to magnesium chloride baths and stopped using garlic but I kept onions. Onions have good fiber for the microbiome. That seems to have gotten me back to stable. I tried garlic again and it seems strong. I will leave it out. I use sulfur veggies in more moderate servings too. Or skip them.
Definite bad symptoms occurred with a dried mushroom sulfite source and I have avoided sulfite treated dried fruits for a long time prior to my recent difficulties with joint pain and other mystery symptoms. Racing heart/panic attack, chest pain kind of - sulfur excess gets scary.
I need to make some organized notes regarding the various issues and symptoms and foods - it all got a little complicated.
Feel free to ask questions, I may not know the answer or will look it up or say I don't know.
Thank you - that's really kind and I appreciate the info. It makes me wonder if it's the sulfides in red wine that cause flare ups. I've tried to hard to reduce. And I'm keeping on trying.
Wow! This well researched, great stuff and much appreciated for time and expertise.
I have long Covid and suffer CFS and headaches, for which I take Tylenol, but Tylenol affects sulphate metabolism and liver, so I take sulphur and milk thistle to compensate and glycine, collagen and ribose for CFS. Please keep the light on in our darkness.
And and, AND it's very dangerous.. your backwinds can explode after metho consumption e.g if you get close to the Olympic Torch. So you be careful out there!
Thanks for this as ever Jennifer.

Red wine can also be a histamine trigger or salicylate sensitivity too I think.
It has free amino acids so glutamate as an excitotoxin may be present.
Red wine was one of my first migraine triggers.

Thanks! and for the helpful input.

H2S is a pretty dangerous way to get one's sulfur, being a common cause of oilfield causalities.
It is good to take methyl folate instead of folic acid.
I agree. Some people can't because they over methylate instead of under methylate.
I reckon EVERYONE should avoid taking methylated spirits, period!
