Guest guest Posted May 31, 2007 Report Posted May 31, 2007 I've noticed my son seems to have a reaction from acorn squash -- every time he eats it his bottom gets red. Would anyone know if acorn squash is possibly high in phenols or salicylates? I have been giving No Phenol with each meal but it doesn't seem to make much difference -- bottom is still red after eating the squash. Any insight would be appreciated. Thank you. Martha Quote

Is it an orange color? My son did not tolerate anything orange, even with No-Fenol, until I corrected his carotene conversion problem. Dana Quote
Guest guest Posted May 31, 2007 Report Posted May 31, 2007 Hi Dana - More towards the color of yellow. Thanks for your reply and feedback. Is there a file describing the carotene conversion problem you resolved for your son that I could possibly read? Thanks again.

For my son, certain yellows qualified as " orange " . >>Is there a file describing the carotene conversion > problem you resolved for your son that I could possibly read? I don't remember exactly which page it is on, but it took vitamin C, zinc, selenium, addressing thyroid issues, and ALA chelation before my son's body converted carotenes. Dana Quote
