The Feingold® Association
of the United States

The Feingold Program enables you to determine if additives and/or salicylates could be responsible for your symptoms. Individuals who are likely to respond to the Feingold Program have often been labeled with hyperactivity, ADD (attention deficit disorder), autism, PDD (pervasive developmental disorder), or salicylate sensitivity.

What is the Feingold Program?

The Feingold Program is based upon an elimination diet
             composed of two stages.
Stage I eliminates:
           Synthetic (artificial) colors
           Synthetic (artificial) flavors
           Antioxidant preservatives BHA, BHT, TBHQ
           Foods which contain natural salicylates, such as apples,
                   oranges, and tomatoes
           Aspirin and medication containing aspirin

Stage II:  After a favorable response to Stage I has been established,
           the salicylate-containing foods may be reintroduced and
           tested one at a time, as described in the Feingold Handbook.
