Many people aren't even aware of Salicylate Sensitivities. I
learned of this when I was trying to uncover some of my son's OCD behaviors. I happened to come across the "Feingold
Diet" and read about Salicylates and discovered my son indeed had this sensitvity, once the offending Salicylate containing
foods were found, the last of my son's symptoms vanished. Salicylates are natural preservatives found in many foods, these foods can act
as a trigger for Tourette Syndrome, ADD, ADHD, OCD, Autism and learning disabilities. Many people who have followed
the Feingold Diet have had amazing results with removing salicylates, including my son! Here is
a list of some main salicylate containing fruits and veggies!
Almonds Apples Apricots Berries Cherries Cloves Cucumbers Currants Grapes Green
bell peppers Nectarines Oranges Peaches Pickles Plums Prunes Raisins Tangerines - Tangelos Tomatoes Aspirin Coffee Oil of wintergreen Rose hips
Non-Salicylate Fruits & veggies
Pears,
Pineapples, Grapefruit, lemons, limes, bananas, kiwi fruit, coconut, dates, figs, mangos, carrots
