WE don’t want to be the cause of someone losing ground on their clearing and cycling, so we go super sal sensitive with our advice. Even just ONE person being unsuccessful on their clearing because of our advice is unacceptable to us! Here is the list of controversial ingredients we have chosen to to super sal- careful, click the links for more info:
Topical Butters like cocoa, shea and mango seed: https://fibrobuddies.com/butters-like-cocoa-shea-and-mango-seed/
Esters like Jojoba: https://fibrobuddies.com/esters-like-jojoba-and-salicylates/
Chewing Gum: https://fibrobuddies.com/chewing-gum-and-salicylates/
PEG # plant oils: https://fibrobuddies.com/peg-40-and-oils-are-they-salicylate-safe/
Stevia: https://fibrobuddies.com/stevia-as-a-sweetener-and-salicylates/
Toothpastes: https://fibrobuddies.com/toothpaste-toms-of-maine-colgate-and-salf-free-options/
But we don’t choose to go super sal-sensitive lightly! We ONLY go with what we have heard from several other guai support groups leaders, we don’t come up with this stuff on our own! And we are here to help you so that it ISN’T overwhelming and too hard to follow. Check out our Fibro Buddies on the Guaifenesin Protocol support group for more support 🙂
And please don’t let this overwhelm you, this is as far as the changes go between the guaigroup and us. We stick to the protocol exactly as Dr St Amand explains in his book.
I hope this clears a few things up!
And if you want to skip trying to figure out all your products and find sal-safe ones, just go on over to Andrea Rose and buy all your products online from her- guaranteed sal-safe 🙂
*Please note that salicylate sensitivity plays a role in this! My website and support group are VERY sal careful! We have found certain things to block the salicylate sensitive people (such as ACV Vinegars, Stevia, topical butters, gums, certain toothpastes) and want to be extremely cautious with what we say is safe or not. Anybody who is being mapped by Dr St Amand or Dr Congdon is a different story, as they have someone who can help them to know when they are blocking. The rest of us who don’t have mappers have to be SUPER diligent so that we don’t block, since we have nobody to catch it if we do!*
