Cramps from grapes anyone?

[Veronica01]

Whenever grapes are on sale i like to get the red kind and eat them mono for breakfast, usually about 1.5-2 cups. Even after going raw they still make me feel weird about 30min to an hour later. Not so much lower cramps, but I get kinda light headed/naseous and my lungs/chest feel heavy. I really don't know what it is, sometimes I think watermelon does the same. But I like them. Would it have something to do with the type of acid in them or the glycemic level? Maybe because they are seedless and hybridized?

Veronica, I have experienced that before, similar to what you have described here, I do find that if I eat a lot of red grapes I can get tummy cramps and literally be keeling over, which happened to me 2 years back, hallow'een, I was hungry, so bought a punnet of red grapes and ate them all, felt fine, then within 20 minutes I was curled up on my bed, in pain. I have never had that since, as I don't think I have ate that many grapes since then! But I wouldn't have thought that 2 cups would be enough to result in pain.

I tend o get sugar rushes from High Fructose Fruits like grapes, melons, and pineapples....etc. I get like a light-headedness woosey feeling after eating them. I can get itchy too, and also wake up with a sugar hang-over from them as well when eaten at night.

So, I usually have to go light on them.

That's my experience anyway.
