Pineapple Intolerance


lmh306

Recommended Posts

So I have a wide range of food sensitivities including gluten, dairy, apples, bananas, coffee and more. I've been diagnosed with leaky gut and hashimoto's and have been trying to cut these things out of my diet.

 

I'm curious about pineapple. That didn't show up on my food allergy test as something I am sensitive to, but every time I eat a little bit of pineapple (not very often) I get the worst stomach pain and feel nauseous. 

 

I'm obviously going to avoid pineapple, but I was wondering if anyone else had a similar problem. 

 

Thanks for your feedback!  :)

Yep, I can not consume it and I have been gluten free for two years.

If you have a gluten intolerance you could have celiac disease or Non-celiac gluten intolerance. From your posting it appears that you did not get any celiac testing. You would have to go back on gluten in order to get tested (how long have you been glutn free? I say this because even the tiniest amount of gluten (medications, lipstick, etc) can set off an autoimmune response. So, be sure to check out our Newbie 101 section under "Coping" for some valuable advice.

I have never been able to eat pineapple without uncomfortable effects. Depending on when and how much I eat, I can get painful raised red patches on my tongue, a prickly feeling in my mouth or numb taste buds. The patchy tongue can also happen from eggplant, walnuts or too much acid of any kind. I wonder if this can be related to Celiac? Maybe I'll post a new topic. :)

There is no gluten in pineapple. Sure, you could be allergic or intolerant for some reason. They have a lot acid. Not sure how they are on FODMAPS or histamines, etc.

I know that pineapple has no gluten, but because having Celiac can make you prone to various ailments (migraine, lactose intolerance, etc) I wondered if it could make someone intolerant to acid foods. The symptoms that eventually lead to my Celiac diagnosis were acid reflux and gastritis, something I still struggle with to some degree. I definitely avoid pineapple, just curious if others experience the same, like me and OP.

I get the sore tongue too.  I think it's just a pineapple thing.

talks  about Bromelain, an enzyme found in pineapple juice and in the pineapple stem.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.

      I would pressure the lab to do the IgA control test for free so that you won't write a poor review about their testing services. You could get this done at any time, whether or not you are gluten-free, however, the celiac disease Tissue Transglutaminase tTG-IgA test must be done after you've been eating lots of gluten for around 6 weeks. This way you could salvage the results of your tTG-IgA test, as long as you were eating lots of gluten beforehand.
