Low Sulfur Diet 7-Day Plan

Low Sulfur Diet

A nutritious and colorful sulfur elimination plan to support clients with sulfur sensitivity.

Following a low sulfur diet for at least one week can help establish the diagnosis of sulfur sensitivity. This balanced plan focuses on eliminating high sulfur foods to help you identify exactly which foods are responsible for their symptoms.

This program was created using low sulfur foods with the following key considerations:

Fiber

Fiber has several health benefits, including improving digestive health and lowering C-reactive protein (CRP), a substance in the blood that indicates inflammation. Following a low sulfur diet can result in a decreased fiber intake due to the elimination of legumes and most grains. This meal plan provides up to 40 grams of fiber daily from low sulfur fruits, vegetables, seeds, and rice.

Antioxidants

A low sulfur diet may be poor in natural antioxidants contained in several sulfur-rich foods. To prevent this, the plan provides essential fat-soluble antioxidants like vitamin A and vitamin E from seeds and oils, carotenoids from carrots and sweet potatoes, and polyphenols found in apples, strawberries, and blueberries.

Immune Support

The minerals zinc and selenium are critical for immune function. This plan provides zinc from salmon and pumpkin seeds and selenium from chicken, yogurt, and rice. Vitamin C found in foods like bell pepper, lemon, and strawberries, is incorporated into the plan to support the immune system.

Calcium

Calcium is an essential mineral for building healthy bones and is a potential nutrient deficiency on a low sulfur diet as calcium-rich foods like dairy, soy, and several plant-based beverages are avoided. This meal plan uses ingredients like fortified coconut milk, coconut yogurt, and seeds to help boost calcium intake.
