Garlic contains both sulfur and selenium, which are crucial for glutathione (GSH) enzyme production. This sulfur enzyme helps keep cells normal and resistant to oxyradical mutations. In addition, selenium, in a compound with sulfur (S-methylcystine), provides strong protection from cellular mutation and the delaying of malignancy after exposure to a carcinogen. Garlic is Nature’s natural antibiotic without the side effects.
MERCURY (Hg)
Mercury is the most potent enzyme inhibitor and toxic non-radioactive element that has a great attraction to sulfhydryl groups also known as thiols. When Hg binds to the sulfhydryl (SH) groups it inactivates the sulfur. (This also applies to lead, uranium, fluoride, and glyphosate/RoundUp). In turn, this blocks the transsulfuration pathways and enzyme functions, which then produce sulfur metabolites with high toxicity that are difficult for the body to handle.
According to Russian Prof. I.M. Trachtenberg: “Thiol poisons, especially mercury and its compounds, reacting with sulfhydryls (SH) or thiols groups of proteins, lead to the lowered activity of various enzymes containing sulfhydryl groups. This produces a series of disruptions in the functional activity of many organs and tissues of the organism.”
Most people don’t realize that we are all inhaling mercury on a daily basis from various industries such as coal burning power plants, mining, municipal incinerators, crematoriums, the military industrial complex and war machine. Then, there are the big chemical companies and massive factory farms, and investment funds. In addition to this contamination many people are exposed to leaking mercury from dental amalgams and the mercury and aluminum adjuncts from vaccines.
SULFUR BINDING PROCESS
& INSULIN
If the geometry of insulin has been damaged by mercury, the message that insulin has arrived to provide glucose to the cell is not received. Toxic metals such as mercury, aluminum, lead, uranium; pesticides and herbicides such as glyphosate/RoundUp; neurotoxins and endocrine disruptors such fluoride and many plastics damage the sulfur binding process.
No other element has more of an ability to combine with other elements than sulfur. It is present in all proteins. Some of the other important biochemical containing compounds of the body are insulin, glutathione, prolactin, growth hormone, and vasopressin. Except for gold and platinum all metals combine with sulfur to form inorganic sulfides. Sulfur is crucial for detoxification, but when interfered with, it can not do its job properly.

explains that insulin’s three sulfur-containing cross-linkages and the insulin receptor that has a tyrosine-kinase-containing sulfur bond.
When toxic metals or chemicals assault and attached to any of these bonds, they interfere with the normal biological functions of the insulin molecules. If sulfur bondings are weakened by these toxic invaders the ability to facilitate the detoxification of toxic metals, effectively enable the transport of oxygen across the cell membrane; foster healthy cell regeneration; or act as the key agent in the effective utilization of amino acids. Methionine, cystine, cysteine, or taurine can not effectively function with out organic sulfur.
