its not ONLY about sulfur! sulfur is only one single element of the over 100 elements out there, so of course it takes more than just sulfur to get lighter and healthier skin!!
diverse natural antioxidant materials and plenty of patience are imperative when u go au-naturale!
msm, turmeric, vits bacek, pineapple, & thai breadfruit all work best for me!
the beauty of it, is one's lightness endeavors become mere secondary to the healthy skin, body, mind, environment, and overall lifestyle embraced in the process.
and the same logic applies to what u put on ur skin.
in fact, now usually when i touch certain things synthetic (like bp, hq, or corticosteroids), or eat 'white' foods high in starch, sugars, or fats, are the only time i readily get some dark pigmentation back!
even topically, i avoid both hq and even kojic like the plague, bc in my experience they r unstable and oxidize so readily, plus ineffective long-term.
sure, no one food will make u lighter or healthier; but its undeniable, u are what u eat! seriously, i can almost guarantee if u eat nothing but mostly potaters for a year, u'll end up lookin like one!
many other promising natural ingredients to look into for supplemental or topical use: mitracarpus, uva ursi, licorice, ginger, citrus, black/wild rice, pomegranate, chamomile, green tea, aloe, alpha-liphoic acid, ellagic acid, ferulic acid...
fruits, fruits, fruits!
soy
non-fat dairy
multiwholegrains
and of course, sulfur-rich foods like eggs, organ meats, cauliflower, onions, garlic, cabbage, brussels sprouts
...i'm sure i've forgotten some, so ppl plssss chime in!!
