Pineapple

Pineapple intolerance differs from pineapple allergies in that it does not trigger an immune system response. Pineapple allergies involve the immune system recognizing specific pineapple proteins as harmful, leading to allergic reactions, such as hives, swelling, or respiratory issues.

• Nausea
• Bloating
• Abdominal pain
• Diarrhea
• Gas

If you consistently experience digestive discomfort or symptoms after consuming pineapple and suspect intolerance, consider discussing your symptoms with a healthcare provider. They can help determine whether testing for pineapple intolerance or other gastrointestinal conditions is necessary.

Managing pineapple intolerance involves avoiding pineapple and pineapple-containing products. Pay attention to food labels and restaurant menus to steer clear of pineapple-based dishes. Consult with a healthcare provider or dietitian to ensure you maintain a balanced diet while avoiding pineapple.
