Breathe Better Food Tip

  • Salicylates

    Sweet potatoes, zucchini and peppers can be high in salicylates. If you find them bothersome, try substituting with low salicylate vegetables, like Brussels sprouts or white potatoes.

  • Sulfites

    Parmesan cheese contains sulfites, omit if bothersome.
