Sandy -- Rage and aggression [was Yeast Overgrowth]

[Guest guest]

Hi Sandy,

My child used to rage and be very aggressive at times. It really is awful

for the child and the whole family!

Eliminating the high-salicylate fruits she was eating (strawberries,

raspberries, apricots especially), plus almonds, plus pineapple, from my

daughter's diet pretty much eliminated the spectacular tantrums and the

kicking, hitting, biting, and spitting. Pineapple was the very worst -- I

made the mistake of feeding that to her only once! Since then I won't even

let her touch the stuff with a finger at the grocery store and I won't have

any in the house!

Have you tried keeping a " diet diary " to help you figure out which foods

cause aggression and rage? My child's episodes always started very soon

after eating the food -- certainly within an hour. It was pretty easy to

track down the problem foods once I realized foods were the cause.

Hum, I went to a web site that listed oranges, apples, tomatoes,

almonds, zuccini as high salicylate. These are items that we use a

lot of. Catchup is at almost every meal, he eats a pealed apple

almost every day, an orange several times a week, I have been baking

with almond flour some etc.

Do you know of a site that will give me a complete list? In looking

at a coupld of there were not the ones that you listed.

Yes, it is really awful for everyone in the home including the child

out of control.

I forgot to say that it is always nice to hear about a family that

is no longer there. This is encouraging.

Thanks again,

I will go to the library and try to get this and also look into the

sup. I think I saw something about it awhile ago but there really is

so much activity on this board that I do not even begin to get through

it all. I will try to go back and see if I can locate some of it.

Salicylate list.

No Fenol from Houston Nutraceuticals.

We used No Fenol for a long time and were able to reintroduced foods

they had not been able to eat. After being on SCD, they can now eat

the foods without enzymes.

Thanks again.

It has been bothering me that I will take away most of the few fruits

that he will eat.

I will check this out.
