It's pretty common when your skin won't stop flaring to be told that you might have salicylate sensitivity.
It's become an (unfortunately) popular test for people with eczema.
I get asked a lot about it and whether I think that people should follow it. Being that I'm not a fan of restrictive elimination diets for chronic skin rash issues, I wanted to share my two cents.
The truth is -- salicylate-rich foods are VERY healthy.
They're not bad for you... and reacting to them often means something entirely different than "You should avoid them."
In fact, outright avoiding salicylate-rich foods if you don't have a salicylate allergy is not a smart move. (And I mean a legit allergy... not a sensitivity.)
It puts you at great risk for nutrient deficiencies and can make you unnecessarily miserable in the process.
In today's episode, I'm sharing what a "Salicylate sensitivity" means to me AND what I do about it.
