Summary

In this podcast episode, we learn about some food sensitivities beyond the paleo autoimmune protocol: oxalates, sulfur, and salicylates. How common are these sensitivities? How do you know if you have them? And how are they treated? This is a tricky conversation, because orthorexia and food fear are common in our community. I don't want to encourage anyone to restrict their diet unnecessarily. However, for some people, one of these sensitivities might be a missing puzzle piece to their health. My guest is Heidi Turner, an integrative dietitian trained in both western and naturopathic nutrition. She has 15 years experience working with people with autoimmune disease. She excels at helping people identify food sensitivities, treat root causes, and expand their diets again.

So what are those sensitivities, and how do you know if you

have them, how common are they, and how are they treated? Now, this is a tricky conversation because

orthorexia and food fear is common in our community, and I don't want to encourage anyone to restrict

their diet unnecessarily, nor do I want people to get stuck with a smaller

and smaller list of foods.

However, for some people, one of these sensitivities might be a missing puzzle piece to their
