Recently I discovered I have an allergy to mangoes.. which sucks cos i LOVE mango!!..... I could eat them with no reaction to them before, but this summer they made my face swell up and caused dry patches of skin on my face. _________

my mum thinks it may be due to the chemicals they use to grow it and preserving it. I kinna hope its the chemicals fault..i don't like being mad at mangoes =(

so does anyone else have an allergy to any kind of fruit? or any kind of food they like?
( i knew this girl who gets rashes when she eats chocolate..but she just kept on eating chocolate anyway)

Yeah. Sadly for me, I developed allergies to more than one fruit. I don't really know what happened but when I got older I became allergic to apples, peaches, plums, cherries, pears...Those types of fruits. Maybe I'm just allergic to healthy stuff. biggrin.gif

But I can eat the preserved ones that are like drenched in syrup and aren't basically considered fruits anymore. I think it probably has to do with the chemicals too. My mouth and throat usually swells up. Sometimes I'm stupid enough and give into cravings, like caramel apples. :[

Fruit allergy sucks.
Though, it only happens to be sometimes...
My tongues gets really itchy. Especially if I eat kiwis and things like that

Me too T_T I'm allergic to almost every fresh fruit. The one fruit I can eat are tangerines.. o_o
If I eat a fruit my throat and ears get all itchy, my lips swell and my face gets red. ><;;

Someone told me that you can grow out your allergies or you can get shots(or was it acupuncture?) weekly...

I'm kinda allergic to most fruit, it makes me itchy/a little red or swollen where the fruit touches, especially if i have chapped lips.
Fruits like: Banana, mango, papaya, any melon, kiwis, oranges sometimes, cherries, pineapples a little bit. Also, carrots.
The redness/irritation usually goes away really quickly, so I just eat it anyway xD

I think if you eat healthier all the time, your allergies will go away.
I used to have really bad allergies in the spring, and so did my father, and we both started eating WAY healthier. Now I have no allergies at all from pollen and stuff.

About the mango, maybe you should try eating organic ones and seeing if you have a reaction?

I was told by my dermatologist that allergies come and go. Like, my dad was allergic to apples when he was younger but he isn't now! It depends on how sensitive your immune system and skin are. I was allergic to milk when I was little but not anymore! I'm mostly allergic to pears and apples, but eat them anyway smile.gif I react like crazy if I eat those during pollen season (birch tree allergy) because my "system" is more sensitive than normal.

I recently (?) developed an allergy to eggplants...It sucks cuz it's one of my favorite vegetables too. sad.gif Well, all this time I had this tingling itch in my mouth whenever I ate it, but I thought that was normal. One day I ate a wholeeee bunch and my entire left sinus (ears, nose, throat) was itching. I was so sad.
