am and pm supplement temperature variables

This recipe is fascinating: https://www.eczemadiet.com/post/turmeric-latte

Do you have any articles on the science of obtaining optimal nutritional absorbtion of am and pm supplements with temperature variables? ie whether the supplements are taken hot vs cold vs boiled

Skinfriend AM Side Effects?

I started taking Skinfriend AM about 3-4 weeks ago, gradually increasing the dose each morning, and for the last 1-2 weeks I've been on a 3g dose. Lately, I've been experiencing more frequent heartburn and severe bloating accompanied by nausea.


I've been sprinkling the 3g over my breakfast (warm rice porridge) and, in the last few days, splitting the dose into two 1.5g doses, one in the morning and one at midday, but the symptoms haven't improved.


I suspect I'm reacting to glycine, as I tested glycine on its own some time ago and had a similar reaction. What can I do now, or how can I still provide my body with the essential nutrients?

In Kszycka's 2017 study, brown rice is classified as having a high salicylate content.

Dear Support Team,


Are you aware that brown rice can cause a severe salicylate intolerance?


In Kszycka's 2017 study, brown rice is classified as having a high salicylate content.


I had previously used white rice, but switched to brown rice due to Candida and now eat it almost three times a day. I've noticed a severe burning sensation in my mouth and itching all over my body.


Could it be that I'm also allergic to the rice bran oil, which I've been using as well?

You said here "Foods can shift between “low,” “medium,” or “high” classifications depending on the portion amount assessed". That's probably why basil and ginger which are high in salicylates are on the eczema diet shopping list.

Leek green vs. white part regarding salicylate tolerance

Dear Support Team, is there a difference in how well the white part of the leek is tolerated compared to the green/dark green part?


I've only been using the dark green part for the past couple of days, as it's lower in FODMAPs.

When it comes to lettuce, I have read that you shouldn't eat the outside leaves. Why is that? On a low SAM diet would it be suitable to eat  the outer leaves after cooking?

What is the difference between Swede and Rutabaga?

Swede is allowed on the shopping list for Australia, but Rutabaga is not allowed on the FID (Food Information Diet). The Food Finder lists Swede and Rutabaga as the same thing; can I eat Rutabaga (which is Swede) on the FID diet?

Hi Matthias, sorry for the confusion! Rowenna is correct- swede and rutabaga are the same thing and they are both safe on FID. Thanks for letting us know as we'll fix that error in the shopping guide!

Einkorn

Does anyone have any information on einkorn as a "histamine liberator" or not? Apparently wheat is in this category but spelt is on the ok list. I'm wondering what opinions on einkorn wheat are in relation to histamines and the skin. Thanks so much!

Hey Eczema Warriors!

I know this forum has been pretty quiet for a while, but I'd love to check in and see how people are doing.

How’s your skin? Are you still following an eczema diet? Have you been able to introduce new foods into your diet?

It would be really nice to hear how everyone is going! New insights, old lessons, or just a quick update are all welcome.

Hope you’re all doing as well as possible, and looking forward to hearing from our beautiful members. xx
