Salicylates you eat as food are glycinated and some are also
destroyed in the digestive tract. Thus they do not make it to the
kidneys and cause the problem. Topically applied they go directly
into the bloodstream, in medicinal strengths they overwhelm the
liver's capacity to handle them.
2. Calcium
If you need supplemental calcium the type you use is up to you.
You should check the label for how to take it. The reason I say this is
that there are many types of calcium and doses are different for
each type, plus tablets come in many different strengths.
3. Vitamins
How do I find vitamins that do not contain salicylates?
" Herbal supplements and "natural" vitamins have plant
ingredients in them that are thousands of times stronger than you
would get in a normal food amount. That's why you can't use them
in vitamins. To find OK vitamins, avoid the word "Natural" on the
label and look for plant extracts, oils, or gels on the list of
ingredients. One pesky source of salicylate in supplements goes by
several names. It's called bioflavonoids, but it includes rutin,
hesperidin, and quercitin. So if you see any of those on a vitamin or
supplement label, you can't use them."
Many people believe that plant foods are both necessary and
beneficial for human health. However, not only are fruits and
vegetable not necessary for human health, they can actually be
quite detrimental for some people.
Other blog posts by Dr. Ede’s that discuss the downside to plant
foods are: 1) Grains, Beans, Nuts, and Seeds, 2) Fruits, 3) Fiber, 4)
Carbohydrates 5) Fruits, Vegetables, and Cancer, 6) Whole Grains
and Health, 7) Fiber and Colon Health 8) Is Broccoli Good for You?
Eventually, Amber decided to eliminate all plant foods from her diet
to see what would happen. Not only did she lose her excess body
fat, but her mood improved so much that she was able to stop
taking her medication. As long as she refrains from eating all plant
foods, she remains free of any symptoms related to her Bipolar II
condition. In other words, a “zero carb” or “zero plants” diet has put
her Bipolar II disordered brain into complete remission. Is her
recover due to the elimination of carbohydrates or salicylates or
both? Who knows? Does it really matter? She says that she feels so
much better eating just meat that plant foods are no longer even
tempting to her.

Also, there are reports that oxalates are on the rise in all
vegetable foods due to depleted soils and plant stress. Plants form
and uptake more oxalates in poor soils.

Kelly Hogan did you mean to say you had two ‘zero’ carb
pregnancies? I have a question about salicylates. Can you react to
certain salicylate containing foods and not others? Many on that list
give me reactions. But I can eat coconut oil all day with no reaction?
Not that I am aware of, Amy. But if you eliminate plant foods
and feel better, that would be your best indication.
I’m pretty sure I’m sensitive to them too. Coconut oil doesn’t
make me feel too great, nor do various leafy greens. It’s difficult to
get enough fat on keto without coconut oil, whilst also having
histamine intolerance :(
I’ve ebv from 2y and with up and down they don’t leave me, is
there a link? can i have more information on this mitochondrial
dysfunction?
Thank you for this blog post. I’ve just recently figured out that
after all of these years (10 plus) it is salicylates that have been
doing so much damage to my body. So glad to know that I am not
alone. I feel amazing with zero salicylates. Better than I ever
thought that I could feel!!
