I love eating jackfruit. Or so I did, before I began having allergic reactions to it.
At first I thought it had to do with eating frozen jackfruit, but during the summer I ate some fresh ones and that came out 10x worse; my lips were a little swollen and my throat puffed up a lot.
What the heck is in jackfruits that's triggering the allergy, but I can't seem to find a source with answers. I mean, I ate it before and never got any reactions. Erg!

Jackfruit is a tropic fruit found in Asia.
Up until now, I never had any food allergies. I could pretty much eat everything, even other tropic fruits.

What is jackfruit? We don't have it in the U.S. Do other raw fruits or vegetables bother you? Your reaction sounds like oral allergy syndrome. Are you allergic to any pollen? I used to be allergic to nearly all raw fruits and vegetables. After being on allergy desensitation shots for five years for my pollen allergies, my allergy to raw fruits and vegetables went away.
I don't know if the cure the next person posted will work for you. I, personally, am allergic to his cure.

if your lips are itchy, then you're probably getting an allergic reaction, sometimes i get the same thing with jackfruit and apples as well but i eat them anyway which is probably not the smartest thing to do haha. for the pain, take some tylenol or motrin try to wash fruits and veggies well before you eat them. this allergy is common for ppl who are allergic to pollen as well like me. try some APPLE CIDER VINEGAR, it may help some. i know it sucks =[ hope you feel better!

Making dietary changes is your first line of defense in treating hypothyroidism. Learn here https://tr.im/2IaHB
Many people with hypothyroidism experience crippling fatigue and brain fog, which prompts reaching for non-nutritional forms of energy like sugar and caffeine. I’ve dubbed these rascals the terrible twosome, as they can burn out your thyroid (and destabilize blood sugar).
1. Just say no to the dietary bungee cord. Greatly reduce or eliminate caffeine and sugar, including refined carbohydrates like flour, which the body treats like sugar. Make grain-based carbohydrates lesser of a focus, eating non-starchy vegetables to your heart’s content.
2. Up the protein. Protein transports thyroid hormone to all your tissues and enjoying it at each meal can help normalize thyroid function. Proteins include nuts and nut butters; quinoa; hormone- and antibiotic-free animal products (organic, grass-fed meats, eggs, and sustainably-farmed fish); and legumes.

Interesting problem.....Did you see a doctor for advice?
I never ate Jack-fruit myself, but it does sound interesting.
Could you being having a reaction to the Sugar contents of ripened fruits? Jack fruit is very sweet and so are over-ripe bananas....I think it is called Fructose.

YES, WHY NOT ? READ THESE CAREFULLY :
When mother Nature has provided us with such a simple and easy treatment to cure diseases and even to avoid them we all must follow the instructions given by her. These Therapies only help Nature to cure us. Let us not ignore Nature in our mad pursuit of science. THIS NATURE'S 'DO IT YOURSELF' ACUPRESSURE THERAPY ITSLEF IS A SCIENCE AND NOT A MATTER OF BELIEF. Try this Therapy sincerely and regularly for at least 15 days and observe its wonderful and amazing result.
When cold continuous even after taking regular treatment over a period of 2 to 5 years, it is termed as 'cold' due to Allergy and when there is congestion, it is termed as Bronchial Allergy. Inspite of researches, this Allergy is not understood and so it is not cured. And as result, the patient has to suffer for entire life and be in a perpetual fear of catching Allergy any time.
It is true that painful tests are taken to find out the cause which creates Allergy. Then Anti-allergic injections are prepared and given to the patients. Then Allergy seems to be cured for a short while, but apperars again and makes the life of the patient miserable. Although Allergy is not fatal, it is considered to be dreaded.
The basic fact is that common cold is not understood and neither is Allergy. Most of the 'Common Cold' is due to excess heat in the body. Now when such common cold continues, the endocrine gland of Thyroid and Parathyroid is the first to be disturbed. As no treatment is taken to correct the function of this gland, it starts functioning less efficiently. This endocrine gland controls the digestion of calcium and so when this endocrine gland does not work efficiently slowly, but steadily a deficiency of calcium is created in the body. Disturbance in the Thyroid/Parathyroid gland leads to disturbance of Adrenal gland, which controls 'fire' element of the body, i.e. spleen, liver and gall bladder and it also controls proper oxygenation. Thus, less functioning of these vital endocrine glands reduces the of resistance power of the body.
This vicious cycle continues. The drugs consumed to cure common cold only increase heat in the body which in turn damages the liver-the radiator of the body. Moreover, due to the continuation of cold for a period of two to three years, even the lungs lose their capacity to throw out toxins gathered from the blood. The net result is that the body develop Allergy for something. The over burdened nerves develop irritation against certain things like perfumes, pollen, dust, etc. And so when the patients come to contact with that particular thing; the nerve get excited.
The Allergy point (Acupressure) No.21 on the front and back of the right hand palm sends signals, one to the liver to slow down its functioning so the excess heat can be produced and the other an SOS to the brain to defend against this enemy. Yhe body knows only one language of defence-it creates Heat. The Brain produces more H+ i.e. Histami. After a while, the brain comes to know that Allergy point had sent a wrong signal and realises that nothing has gone into the system of the body. And so, in order to remove the excess heat from the body it creates cold by taking one atom of oxygen from the air we breathe and mixes it with two atoms of Hydrogen, i.e. H2O= water. These results in sneezing, watering of the nose and eyes, coughing, vomiting, etc. This fight in the body between the excess heat and cold results in brathlessness, depression, etc. This is not understood and so instead of helping to remove the excess heat and increasing the power of resistance of the body by reducing the deficiency of calcium , drugs like anti-histamin are given to curb the Allergy. For the time being, this process of removing the excess heat from the body is arrested. But very soon, the body starts this process of throwing out the excess heat-which is considered to be another attack of Allergy. The vicious cycle continues. And so, even Adrenal gland is more damaged-which damages oxygenation in the body-creates more breathlessness and creates more and more weakness in the body-leading to more depression and the power of resistance of the body becomes so low that the patient develops Allergy even against microscopic dust.
Now, once we have understood about Allergy, 'cure' is very easy. For immediate cure; take treatment on point No. 21 on the front and back of palm on the right hand.
2. Start taking Cal. phos 6 or 12 i.e. 3 pills in the morning and 3 pills in the evening-This will reduce the deficiency of calcium.
3. Take Kali Phos 200-8 pills on the first day and then once a week. Then take Kali Phos 12-3 pills in the morning and 3 pills in the evening. This Biochemic medicine will soothe the excited nerves, and the Allergy will under control. During this treatment, drinking gold/silver/copper charged water of 2 glasses reduced from 4 glasses is also advisable.
TO REMOVE ALLERGY PERMANENTLY THE PATIENT MUST DO THE FOLLOWING :
(a) Treatment of excess heat from the body do this : (i) Take as first thing in the morning 1 teaspoonful of haritki churna (harde powder-powder of terminalia chebula retz)+1/2 teaspoon of sugar for 8 to 10 days continuously, then twice a week. This will also keep the bowels clean.
(ii) Take an equal quantity of cumin seed powder(Jeera), black pepper(Kali Mirch), saunf(Sauwp), amla powder,crystal sugar(Misri), and ginger powder(Saunth). Grind them into powder and keep it in a bottle. Take 1 teaspoonful of this powder with water in the morning and evening.
(b) Drink 2 to 3 cups of green juice adding in it 1 teaspoon of Helath Drink + 1 tablespoonful of honey. This will supplement Vitamin "C" and digestive power and increase the power of resistance of the body.
(c) Drink 2 glasses of charged water reduced from 4 glasse. This will empower the brain and the resistance power.
(d) and also take the following Bio-chemic salts : Cal. Phos 6 or 12 -3 pills in the morning & evening for 45 days.
Kali Phos 200 -8 pills once a week. Kali Phos 12 or 30 -3 pills in the morning & evening.
(e) Treatment of Acupressure is a MUST.
(f) And take Blue Light on the chest and back for 5 to 7 minutes twice a day. That will empoer the weakened lungs. Once you start feeling beeter finish the Pranaym with prolonged breath-alternatively from right and left nostril-repeat it at least 10/20 times. If possile also do Kapabhati and Bhastrika.
(g) In case of breathlessness, do the following :
Ask the patient to lie down on the back between 11 A.M. to 4 P.M. and open his/her mouth wide open. And pour 1 tablespoonful of honey directly into the throat in such a way that honey does not touch the tongue. And thus, just in 45 days , the body would have built up enough resistance power-removed the deficiency of calcium and also empowered all the endocrnie glands. So the patient will become free from Allergy and its fear.
