olive oil

Dear ,

Olive oil is very high in salicylates and cold pressed or expeller

pressed olive oil is even higher. In fact any cold pressed or

expeller pressed oil is higher in salicylates than its non-pressed

equivalent. My information is from the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital

(RPAH) in Sydney, Australia, which has studied natural food chemicals

extensively and has a very thorough elimination diet, which excludes

natural and artificial food chemicals and additives, as well as known

triggers such as dairy and gluten etc. RPAH uses the word salicylates

to be an indicator to the quantity amount of the many compounds which

are related and are phenols and mostly salicylates.

I have used the diet for my son and myself and found that we both

have lots of food intolerances and eliminating the offending

substances - salicylates, amines, glutamates, preservatives, gluten,

dairy, soy, eggs, artificial additives of any sort ... -- has given

me a new son and improved my health tremendously.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

I had a reply to a post on another board. The Feingold literature I

was re-reading a bunch of times should be interpreted to mean that

banana, pineapples, and potatoes are both benzoates and medium level

salicylates.

I have asked about the olive oil being a benzoate twice but haven't

gotten an answer yet. Olives are listed as allowed for vegetables as

far as salicylate goes.

What type of oil should we use, sparingly of course, in cooking? I

give my 5 year old son ProEFA, which is a mixture of fish oil and

borage oil, so he's getting some good essential fatty acids daily,

but I thought that olive oil was one of the best ones for cooking

with. . . .

I had even been adding a little olive oil to his pasta occasionally,

just before serving so that it would retain some of the health

benefits. (He's underweight, and since I've taken all hydrogenated

oils out of his diet, I felt I needed to give him perhaps a little

more fat than the ProEFA provides him. He's vegetarian (except for

the fish oil supplement), and really doesn't get much fat at all

except for what I purposely give him.

What oil are you using instead? I've been using olive oil exclusively

since I found out that some kids react badly to canola oil.

I have no idea whether the information I am giving you here is

relevant to your question, but my son has very severe phenol issues,

and he reacts to most oils even with enzymes. I am not on the

official Feingold program for him because he needs even more

restriction than Feingold. I use corn oil for him, and also he can

have safflower oil. I just tried a soy challenge with him, he had

terrible problems with soy before enzymes, and he is okay with soy

now, so I bought some soy oil to use for some variety. I have not

tried re-introducing canola, sesame, or olive with him yet, but he did

not tolerate them before enzymes. He does not tolerate sunflower oil

even with enzymes, or most other nut/seeds like peanuts, almonds, etc.

One thing tho, that I have noticed for him and also for me, is that

oils interfere with his sleeping, no matter what type of oil it is,

and even if he otherwise tolerates it. So I do not give any oils

after lunchtime, otherwise he will be hyper at bedtime, have some

difficulty sleeping, and will wake early. But oils given before

lunchtime, in any form, do not affect his sleeping, or mine either.

I hope that helps you.

Hi

Is there a link for more information on the RPAH diet? My son has many food

intolerances and I believe he has trouble with phenols/salicylates. I am

attmpting a modified Feingold diet with my son in addition to being GFCFSF.

Since you are removing so many foods, what are some typical things that you CAN

eat?

Any info would be appreciated.

Cute. I've used spritz's from a spray can of olive oil. Whole foods also

sells spray cans of other kinds of oil... or you can buy the oil you want

& put it in your own spray can. Not as flavorful, but there's always

plain popcorn. I wish I knew a way to get seasonings to stick to popcorn

without spray.

This was featured in " NATURE " when the article came out.

Only problem is that the equivalent dose comparable to 600 mg of

ibuprofen is a GLASS of olve oil...

SO just keep using it on your salads..

And what if my olive oil doesn't say unrefined? Does it really matter?

Thanks in advance,

Bariani is made by a family originally from Italy but now living in the US.

Don't know about the others. Bariani is what I buy. :-)
