Help pineapple hurt my mouth and lips

[ken979]

Im eating pineapple to kill parasites in my body

I ate lots of pineapple (almost a whole one) and my lips are bleeding and mouth really sore.

Has anyone experienced this?

It's still hurting :confused:

What should I do, should I stop eating it?

[Revvell]

Yes. Solution ~ don't eat pineapple.

AAHHH, solution via Revell....so simple, yet so profound!!! :)

Listen to her...she's wise beyond her years!!! ;)

Do I stop eating them forever, or wait until sores get better?

Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks

yes i have as well. here's what i do:

you can cut the top or bottom off the pineapple and let it sit on a plate in the fridge for a few hours. this does something chemically and it's easier to eat.

also...

make sure that all the skin is removed. it's often the skin that is making your mouth sore... so be sure every little bit is off.

and...

don't forget you can juice it or smoothie it up... i loooove pineapple juice with a little cucumber and ginger. it takes the extreme sweetness out without taking away any flavour. don't overdo the cucumber though... a little will do.

AAHHH! Wisdom by Aleesha too! You are blessed!!! :)

Also, Google is your friend! Here's what I found:

"Wait until your lips are OK again and put it directly into your mouth without touching them. If it still irritated the inside part of your lips you should avoid pineapple as you may have a slight allergy."

But, honestly the Girls said it best... Trying it in a Smoothie would be interesting... Let us know how you fair after trying it different ways. I too am a pineapple lover! :)

I also feel mouth discomfort after eating pineapple. I'd be devastated if I was allergic to it since its my second-favorite fruit (behind lemons).

A couple challenges with pineapple. It has to be completely ripe or it may cause problems.

Another is not so much a problem as it is the power of the enzymes in pineapple. This creates this situation for some.

I have an allergy of sorts to pineapple. If I eat a little, it works ok. A bit more or two days in a row, massive stomach cramps (folded over kind ugh).

If I eat local...I dont eat pineapple. Not indigenous to where I live atall.

If you want to use food to kill parasites in your body then buy a papaya. Eating 7 to 10 seeds a day for a week will kill parasites. And a papaya has tons of seeds. Google "papaya seeds"

But warning, papaya is kind of bland with a ivory/dove soapy taste. I would cut the papaya in little cubes, and store in the freezer and put some papaya cubes in a smoothie in order to thicken it.

Wow seductive, that's good to know!! Thanks :)
