Calcium and Sulphur: winning duo
The action associated with Sulphur goes beyond the skeleton because wherever calcium plays a role, Sulphur is active.
Calcium and Sulphur
We too often limit the role of Calcium to the skeleton but its action associated with Sulphur goes much further, because wherever calcium plays a role Sulphur is active.
Let us look at the Calcium cycle in the body:
To assimilate Calcium in the body or to activate its production, we need a vitamin, vitamin D which develops on the skin where Sulphur is found.
Calcium circulates in the blood in which sulphur is present (in the plasma albumin and in red blood cells). Now red blood cells are produced in the bone marrow (also presence of Calcium + Sulphur).
Let us recall that Sulphur is an element that regulates osteolysis, that is to say the balance between the "builders" and the "breakers" of bone. The blood therefore transports Calcium and arrives in the liver. And the regulator of the liver is once again Sulphur which acts on the bile to prevent the formation of calculi which are... Calcium salts.
Calcium also serves to oxygenate the brain, and in the cerebrospinal fluid, Sulphur is still present.
It is in the brain that the pituitary gland is located, which itself is in relation with the thyroid, which regulates the level of Calcium in the blood.
This may therefore explain why emotional shocks cause endocrine disorders and bone diseases (return to Calcium). Note that Calcium also oxygenates the endocrine glands.
The thyroid will command the integration or the release of Calcium in the reserves that constitute the skeleton. This then represents, by its presence in all parts of the body, an active reserve to supply Calcium to the cells. It is obviously found at the heart of the nerve impulse, occupying the place of electrical generator activating Sodium and Potassium.
This Calcium cycle shows us sulphur at the beginning of the action (skin) and at the end (bone).
The diagram of a cell highlights that its mechanism actually uses Calcium as a key to open. Sulphur and Calcium would then be a hidden key against water retention? Gypsum, calcium sulphate, was already used in ancient Egypt. And the thermal waters of Brides are rich in Salt, Sulphur and Calcium.
Once again, nature shows us the example; let us therefore take advantage of its benefits
