Guest guest Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 So I'm finally starting the sulfur foods exclusion trial. It's taken me awhile to get started but it's difficult when it's not your own home or your own kitchen. Anyway, when I was pulling the exclude/ok lists together I realized that I had no idea where nuts fell. After searching the archives, I think I understand that: -nuts and nut flours are generally ok (ie, non-sulfury) -peanuts are a legume and may be sulfury and/or allergic -cashews may have some other problem Does that sound right? I'm afraid I didn't understand what the problem with cashews is... can anyone explain it? Dumb question - what do sulfur-avoiding folks do for salad dressing? I've always used ranch or other creamy dressing, and can't stand a traditional Italian dressing. So I have these allowable salad foods and no idea what to have with them. Any suggestions? Right now I feel really awful. Really, really awful. But I expect that is the caffeine withdrawal. I didn't see anything banning black tea, but I know I have adrenal problems and caffeine is supposed to be bad for the adrenals, so I decided to just bite the bullet and go through the withdrawal. You would not think that just one cup (ok, 14oz mug) of coffee per day could cause this much trouble. I never have soda and only very, very rarely have black tea, so it's just that one mug a day that I have to give up. But I do feel awful... grrh.
