Pear Skins
Hi, how much salicylates does pear skin contain? Reason I ask is that I have been on FID for 5 months, my skin is 60-70% clear. However whilst my ears, face and (mostly) my feet have cleared up, my hands are still problematic (but have definitely improved). My hands were 90% better 2 months into FID but have got a bit worse in the past few months. I started FID by peeling pears for the first few months but since then I have got a bit lazy and haven't been peeling them. I tend to eat 2 pears a day. Wanted to know if there was perhaps a connection. I am strictly following FID otherwise but want to do detective work before I move onto testing. Many thanks, Mark

Hi Mark, the only way to know if pear skin is a problem (for your skin) is to do the test… one week no skins then eat the skins and see if your skin reacts. Let us know how you go!
