Salicylate sensitivity

Whats the best way to go about treating salicylate sensitivity?

Hi,
There is no real best way.
doi: 10.3238/arztebl.2008.0137Moderate high level in food
Limit food with arachidonic acid (AA)
Desensitization with medical supervision (do not last).Note: If AA is under control, the reaction should be more moderate. It takes time. I do not believe in this clue. Very difficult to prevent. Possible.
Perhaps quercetin anhydride could help to maintain the reaction to a moderate level since it calm down the mastocyte reaction. In cure, not continuously. 2 softgels/day.
Drink green tea infusion instead of coffee (histamine).
Vitamins D, C, and B12, along with magnesium, are known to help stabilize mast cells and reduce the release of inflammatory mediators.
make a search with mast cell stabilizer?
and adapt to your context. -
@LucH Thanks!
I'm not 100% sure its salicylates but when I eat foods, such as honey, olive oil, OJ, fruit, spinach, and some other things the skin on my face gets really flaky and irratated.
Also some things that seem to kind of help are MSM, glycine and Claritin antihistamine.
I also took some MCT oil recently and got terrible acne from it, not sure what that could mean?

@LucH Oh yeah also when I was taking gelatin before I was getting really bad acne too. Any reason this might be? Thanks!

I don't think it's acne but mini-pustules, +/ red, small pimples due to a histamine reaction. Make a search with google pictures: small red pimples and histamine.
More logical when you react to some food that doesn't contain salicylate.
You've overdriven the capacity of the body to deal with histamine. Maximum 150 - 200 units / day but not every days since our capacity is only 50.
Note there are mainly two sources: H3 and L3 should be strictly avoided.
All amines should be limited at the beginning (e.g. banana).
H3 = High level histamine brought by food.
L3 = Liberation (set free). Histamine released, through an allergic reaction.
I've got a useful link to get a pdf if you want it.
Note: We need Cu 1.5 mg for SOD enzyme. Not enough to deal with histamine on a satisfying level. I took 1 000 000 units DAO enzyme, 2x/d at the beginning. 1x/d afterwards.

Debunking Histamine Intolerance (by Jacob Gordon, INHC)
Histamine intolerance comes from an imbalance of consumed/produced histamine and ability to break it down.

In this post, he'll discuss the underlying pathology of the newly demonized phenomenon called histamine intolerance: mast cells, dysbiosis, food poisoning, histamine metabolism/liberators and hormone dysregulation. -
@LucH ok, thanks! When I consume MCT oil or coconut oil I get cystic pimples. Very annoying.

Coconut oil is viricide. Maybe it makes the LPS charge heavier. Possibility. Not sure.
Listen to your feeling. Wait for an improvement. Then take it back but very moderately.
Much fat has a laxative effect too.
