I found a list that shows which are the worst offenders of foods with the

highest salicylate values :

http://www.zipworld.com.au/~ataraxy/Salicylates_list.html I hope that it is

correct?

" What are Phenols?

" A group of natural and synthetic compounds that are ingested or

produced to varying degrees by the body or by microbes in the intestine contain

a benzene ring with one or more hydroxyl (OH) groups attached to it. When this

attachment occurs, they become phenolic compounds. These compounds possess

unique chemical properties. They are very soluble both in organic solvents (like

alcohol, ether, and the fatty components of the body) and in water (aqueous

solution), where they are strongly acidic. They exert toxic effects in the

brain, where normally certain enzymes prevent their accumulation. The Feingold

Program is a diet regimen which eliminates many dietary sources of phenolic

compounds. Similarly, antifungal medications eliminate microbes (yeasts and

other fungi) in the intestine which produce a wide variety of phenolic

compounds. "

Now what is fascinating to me is that some of the phenols are produced in your

own body! Yeasts in your own gut produce phenols and correcting gut dysbiosis

(altered gut ecology) is vital. That would entail the use of good probiotics and

antifungals e.g. oregano oil and grapefruit seed extract (GSE) to elimate

phenol-producing organisms.

You see we can be good and avoid all the problem goods, but if the organisms in

our gut are making them we are still in trouble.
