Not like sulfur as in rotten eggs, but as an aminoacid,
then again, i just might think so cause it is a sulfuric amino acid.
Unless you're liver I severely fucked, in which case the cysteine accumulates and is dangerous, (and SAMe would do the trick instead),
it's a great supp to aid the liver producing glutathione.
It's even used for acetaminophen overdose, either as an oral or an injectable antidote to raise glutathione levels and prevent APAP toxicity.
SAMe can also be used as such an antidote.
Anyway, it doesn't help performance.
Even seen studies claiming it hinders performance (muscle growth or whatever), but I doubt that.
