Remember that many
pharmaceuticals contain
sulfites. If you require an
injection, ask if the medication
has been preserved with
sulfites.
Furthermore, many processed
foods have the potential to be
treated with sulfites. It
is best to cook with organic
foods whenever possible.
Pass the catchup - not!
Condiments have the potential of
containing sulfites. So do
dried fruits, wine and spirits.
There are many processed
foods that can contain sulfites.
Some of these include frozen
vegetables and fruits,
guacamole, coleslaw, corn and
potatoes. Any form of
seafood can have sulfites.
Breading mix, brown sugar,
cereal, caramel, syrup,
cornstarch and frozen potato
products should be avoided.
Other items that may be treated
with sulfites include candy,
horseradish, jams, maraschino
cherries, dried noodles and
rice, olives, relish, chips,
pickled products, sauerkraut and
gravy. Sulfites may be
used in trail mix, processed
coconut, colas, juices,
alcoholic products, frozen
breads, canned products, cookie
mixes, dough conditioners,
processed meats and pectin.
There are many more potentially
unsafe foods, so always read
labels. When in doubt,
call the manufacturer. |
