Here's a question.  If a product contains sulfur, then doesn't that make it 
illegal according to the AERC drug rules?

At Tevis, I was told that Gall Salve was not legal because it contains 
sulfur, which I guess can cover up or mask a drug test.  So if a topical 
salve that contains sulfur is not legal, then wouldn't an oral supplement 
that contains sulfur also be considered illegal?  (assuming that 
"negligible" is still above the level of "zero" tolerance)
