Tag: Low sulfur recipes

Studies suggest that an overgrowth of certain gut bacteria, known as sulfate-reducing bacteria, can convert dietary sulfur into excess hydrogen sulfide gas, causing digestive problems like bloating and gas. Understanding what you can eat on a low sulfur diet can help manage these symptoms and support gut healing.

While no food is entirely free of sulfur, as it is a vital element for life, some contain significantly lower amounts and are recommended for those with specific health conditions. This guide will explore what foods have no sulfur (or very low levels) and the principles of a low-sulfur diet, which is sometimes advised to manage conditions like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).
