thanks! this is one of the best, most concise videos on the subject! my key symptom was my eczema. I had noticed that it was diet related, to have a flair up, and once someone pointed me that direction, I made the connection that many herbs and spices, olive oil, wine and some fruits and veggies would worsen it, which was confusing since you hear that you should eat more of those things. I also have found that making water kefir, using pears, cilantro and limes in the second ferment, as well as using kefir-fermented garlic, has helped a lot. bloating is way down and skin is almost 100% today! in case that can help someone .
Thanks Debbie! So glad they are helpful. Oxalates and salicylates often come hand in hand. Epsom salt baths and an oxalate binder would be my first supporting approach
@@ByronHerbalist could you tell me what an oxalate binder is? Or where I can get one I suspect that the candida overgrowth in the Malassezia overgrowth may be potentially blocking enzymes or some thing I’m not really sure I was seeing a functional doctor, but no longer can afford it. I’m a single mom and just it’s been a struggle and this is been going on for a very long time. I’m very sensitive to even probiotics.
@@ByronHerbalist would sulfur supplements like msm or garlic help I have mthfr gene one variant , I’m confused what I should do also dealing with skin issues
I was recently tested positive for Salicylate sensitivities and so overwhelmed by all the information and not sure what the right course of action was. This video was so informative and helped me, I tried alkaline powders a few months before and wasn’t sure whether it was working or if it was the low inflammation diet. Now in hindsight I I can understand why I did feel better in that period! Thank you so much!
@@jonesy1589sorry for the very late response, I was having stomach issues for a long time with normal drs just treating symptoms I booked an appt with a gastroenterologist and did a blood panel and took biopsy of my stomach, colon and intestines Not sure if it was the blood tests or the biopsy but those tests confirmed the allergy
Wow! I thought that I was gluten intolerant, all of a sudden at the age of 52, I had not drank a beer in about a year, drank some beer and my body freaked out! I had dermatitis, welps, hives, eczema overnight! Saw a dermatologist, he was a loser, did me no good. Well I quit eating gluten, it was not getting better, I was ready to leave the earth, I could not handle the constant itching, rashes, etc. My husband found salicylate intolerance, so we changed my diet to see if it was the cause, and bingo, it was it. I love grapes, well that is a big fat no for me, one of the itchiest foods, same with my daughter. Now that I know my issue and it may lead to more issues, I am staying away from foods with salicylates, I have pretty much went back on a Keto diet. Things are getting better, not perfect, but I feel I need to learn more! Epsom Salt baths will be my nightly routine! As a child, my parents made us soak once a week in Epsom Salt. I had just forgot about it. Thank you for this info, even though some was over my head!
How slow do you increase epsom salt? Then is this something you can ever stop? Do you have a lot of success stories for salicylate intolerance? How else can I get sulfur in my body?
I've had salicylate problems for forty years and never had an Epsom salt bath in my life. So far, I see no reason why anyone would need one. I live on an almost completely carnivore diet and am very healthy that way. Considering the salicylates are fruits and vegetables, I don't suffer anymore and am seventy-one now.
Anyone else have the same symptoms? Fast heart rate, swelling in the throat, feeling dizzy, shortness of breath? I thought it was lactose or gluten, but I’ve been not eating that for a few weeks now, I suspected salicylic acid a few weeks ago as I’ve had few episodes when I’ve been off the gluten and lactose and thought it could be my face wash which contains salicylic acid and my back cream, so decided to throw it. Well I’ve had a few episodes since but didn’t realise it was in foods, which I’ve had today raspberries, grapes, and blueberries, also spaghetti Bolognese which contains tomatoe. Seems like the only option I could be allergic to, I think I can handle it in small amount as I have blueberries in the morning with porridge.
Hi , i have the same , i was full recovered until next morning , till i wash my face and mouth, so im blaming the tooth paste and soap cleanser. What do u think?
Blueberries are high salicylate. My daughter suffers skin problems, and i got her iff dairy and gluten, and she was doing well. Then i gave her blueberries and she flared up. She flared from chicolate aswell, but not from sugar sweets. So i figured it must be the cocoa in the chocolate rather than the sugar. The cocoa and blueberry reactions both led me to suspect salicylate. Less than a week on dairy/gluten AND salicylate free and her skin is closed and healed iver. She went from scratching all night and day, to jot at all now. Using detmasilk clothing too now
My symptoms only triggered after taking aspirin. I was experimenting with 2-3 a week as an anti inflammatory and it took me a while to connect the extreme eczema to the aspirin. Now even herbs such as parsley will trigger the eczema! I’ve been taking gelatin and collagen now for the glycine! I will try the epsom baths thanks 🙏🏽
Please answer: For people with vitamin K deficiency, it is recommended to have grean leaves or vegetables..... but also they are told to avoid salicylates food.................but most greens with vitamin K have salicylates in them.............what are the options left
Todd, do you have a recommendation on how much pot, mag, cal citrate to use? How many times per day? With meals or away? I just tested my urine 5 days in a row and it is consistently under 6.5 usually around 6 and hovering around 5.5 on some days.
Is chorella safe for sal intolerant? What would be the best thing to do ? I suspect this because mthfr and histamine issues . Also dealing with skin issue seb derm .
An excellent video I’m allergic to sulfur and I don’t have a bathtub because we’re living in a travel trailer. I’ve been avoiding sulfur foods and sulfur products for several years because my stomach blew up whenever I ate eggs or cruciferous vegetables however, I’m currently eating some eggs right now will that be enough sulfur? Thank you.
Have you heard of salicylate intolerance symptoms starting the first few minutes of an Epsom salt bath but only if the water is very hot? Symptoms last several hours afterwards: headache, rapid heart rate, brain fog, fatigue, nasal congestion. Would you recommend continuing with the baths in this case in hopes of decreasing sensitivity? Just go slowly?
Actually I think it was the bubble bath causing me issues. First ingredient is "wild yam extract" and I see yams are high in salicylates. I tried again without bubble bath and was fine even in hot water.
I bought a tooth paste , send me to the hostpital yesterday , i got better i came back to sleep, next morning im feeling good i wash my face and mouth, and boom, sick 🤢 close to death.

Excellent! Please do an in depth video on sulfur intolerance and the inability to turn sulfur into sulfates. 🙏
Thanks Angie! No problem, let me add it to the list now
@angie2129 The trace mineral molybdenum turns sulfur (and sulfite) into sulfate. And sulfate helps remove salicylates/phenols.

Incredible input! That must have been an imbalanced gut biome driving the intolerance with that success
Cilantro has high salicylate content ....
@@Amber4 it is one of the only low salicylate herbs.of course it probably depends what list you look at. I don't seem to react to it.
Thanks so much! I have had histamine symptoms for 6 years. Just found out I have oxalate and salicylate issues. I love your videos!

My symptoms are an increased heart rate and hyperactivity.
Interesting. I would explore histamine here too

Hey Todd, loving those extra details.
you are brilliant. iam just lowering salicylates in my diet to see if that makes a good difference.

Low and slow with nutrients first
How do you work on motility with someone with salicylate intolerance?

Dietary sulphur may be an issue for many people here. It is very individual and based on your tolerance
@@ByronHerbalist so, is an epsom salt foot soak as effective if one doesn't have access to a tub?
@@authorgirlpetparent yes same question.
What is the price of a consult with relevant testing using the OAT, specifically checking histamine, mast cell, gut function, and salicylates please?
there's a little write up here if that helps www.byronherbalist.com.au/appointments/

That sounds more like a histamine/mast cell reaction instead. Hot temperatures can trigger this reaction!

There are of corse people that simply cannot consume salicylates at any cost. Their digestive system is too damaged. What do you suggest for them?
its just my toothpaste that is the main problem
yup, that would do it for some

An Organic Acids Test (OAT) is a urine test that measures the levels of organic acids in a person's urine, which can provide insight into the functioning of their metabolism and potential imbalances in the body.NOT SALICYLATE.
lol, maybe not the oat test you’ve used. Mosaic labs oat has a specific marker for salicylates
