Hi Arun,

I read the article on your web site at MSN. In researching it I
wondered if we could make some money off our odors by converting
them to fossil fuels? LOL, read below! People with TMAU are told
that their bodies may have adverse effects to sulfa also.

Some how I bet Desmopressin as found in Dr Werner's paper fits into
this. You can tell I don't understand how our body manufactures it
but here is a description from Wikipedia:

Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) or methylthiomethane is an organosulfur
compound.

Organosulfur compounds are organic compounds that contain sulfur
(sulphur). They are often associated with foul odours, but
ironically many of the sweetest compounds known are organosulfur
derivatives. Nature abounds with organosulfur compounds—sulfur is
essential for life. Two of the 20 common amino acids are
organosulfur compounds. Fossil fuels, coal, petroleum, and natural
gas, which are derived from ancient organisms, necessarily contain
organosulfur compounds, the removal of which is a major focus of oil
refineries.
