	In the [[threefold human organism]], the sulphur process works mainly in the [[metabolic-limb system]] and fires his digestive and volitional activity. Only in midsummer does it reach up into the [[nerve-sense system]] (see below). The sulphur process seizes the [[Physical body\|physical]] and above all the [[etheric body]], but does not penetrate as far as the [[astral body]] and the [[I-organisation]] {{GZ\|\|27\|73f]]. The etheric body, however, is precisely the main point of attack of the [[ahriman]]ic powers. Higher sulphur intake causes dizziness and a dulling of consciousness; [[sleep]], when [[I]] and astral body are out, becomes more intense.

	In the [[w:Homeopathy\|homoeopathic]] ~~Materia Medica~~ the ~~Sulphur~~ type is very strikingly described. It is the "ragged philosopher", scruffy, with impure greasy skin and unkempt hair, with drooping shoulders and clumsy gait. He sweats easily, the body exhalations are malodorous. Nervous distraction, digestive and sleep disturbances up to frequent vivid nightmares are typical. Thinking is blurred and unsystematically erratic; however, occasional surprisingly ingenious ideas do occur. A strong self-centredness and complacency is usually noticeable, but only a low ability for realistic self-assessment. In social intercourse, an insensitive aloofness is often noticeable. A certain formlessness spreads both in shape and behaviour, everything seems to melt away. {{LZ\|\|Kent, p. 736 ff}}		In the [[w:Homeopathy\|homoeopathic]] materia medica the sulphur type is very strikingly described.
