Comfortable with wine, dried fruit and cured meats again: molybdenum keeps the enzyme that clears sulfites working.
- Sulfite handling. Sulfite oxidase needs molybdenum to turn sulfites, from wine, dried fruit, cured meats and your own metabolism, into sulfate.
- Three working enzymes. Sulfite oxidase, xanthine oxidase and aldehyde oxidase all depend on molybdenum. They break down sulfites, purines and aldehydes from food, drink and normal metabolism.
- Sulfur amino acids, put to use: the ones in eggs, meat and garlic.
- You control the amount. A dropper, not a fixed tablet.
- Sodium molybdate, a water-soluble form, in reverse-osmosis water with fulvic acid and sorbic acid. Vegan and gluten free.
Why it fits bioenergetic, low-toxin living. Your body has its own clean-up enzymes for sulfites and aldehydes, and molybdenum is what they run on. A small, measured amount, with no sugar or artificial flavors or colors.
As one customer put it: "High quality, Stuff is good."
2 fl oz (60 mL), 120 servings. 60-day no hassle returns.

Start low: 2–3 drops a day in 6–8 oz of water, with food.
Raise slowly: over a week or two, go up to 10 drops (100 mcg) a day for adults. Children 4 and up: up to 5 drops in 4–6 oz of water.
If it feels like too much, go back to the last amount that felt good, and talk with your healthcare provider.
Always dilute; don't take it straight or on an empty stomach. Shake well before using.

What does molybdenum do? It's the working part of three enzymes, including sulfite oxidase, which turns sulfite into sulfate.
Do I need it if I eat well? Most people get some from food: legumes, grains, and nuts. The drops are a simple, measured top-up.
How should I store it? Cool and dark, tightly closed.
Molybdenum is built into the molybdenum cofactor, which sulfite oxidase, xanthine oxidase and aldehyde oxidase need in order to work.

Bioenergetic & low-toxin perspective
Ray Peat counted molybdenum among the trace minerals that matter, noting when old experimental diets left it out.
"Several of the B vitamins weren't known at the time, and the mineral mixture lacked zinc, copper, manganese, molybdenum, and selenium." — Ray Peat (https://raypeat.com/articles/articles/sugar-issues.shtml)
A related study, not one Peat cited: Mendel 2013 (above), on the molybdenum cofactor.

Talk with your healthcare provider before use if you're pregnant or nursing, take medication, or have a medical condition. Must be diluted. Don't take it on an empty stomach. Keep out of reach of children. Don't use if the seal is broken or missing.
