<< Salicylates are relatively high in oranges and salicylate
 allergy/intolerance can contribute to both asthma and eczema. If
 removing oranges helps, check out other foods containing salicylates.

 Other common foods that contain salicylates are:

 Tomato, alfalfa, chilli, onion, broccoli, olives, broad bean,
 spinach, egg plant, mints, meat pastes, most herbs/spices. This is
 not extensive - a full list should be able to be obtained from a good
 allergist or your local asthma foundation.
