Cysteine is a nonessential amino acid, yet a
biochemical powerhouse. Ever since the Greeks
used garlic therapeutically, elemental sulfur has
been employed to treat a wide variety of
disorders. Cysteine, a higher quality source of
sulfur than garlic, is active in many different
situations in the body because of its special
properties of the thiol grouping at the end of
each molecule

Thiol compounds not only prevent oxidation of
sensitive tissues, which can cause aging and
cancer, by sacrificing themselves for oxidation
first, but they also help the body process and
render harmless toxic chemicals and carcinogens.
This is what makes cysteine, and its well-known
star derivatives N-acetylcholine-cysteine and
glutathione, extremely powerful
components. Foods rich in cysteine are high in
sulfur. They include egg yolks and red peppers.
Other good sources are garlic, onion, muscle
protein, asparagus, cabbage, Brussels sprouts,
broccoli, cauliflower, etc.
