My adult children have developed allergies to fruit?

Question

My adult children, a son 21 years and a daughter 20 years old have in the last 2-3 years developed allergies to fruit. Their tongues and mouth itch like crazy when they eat fruit. Only fresh though..canned doesnt affect them. It started with my son with I think cantalope then as years have gone by his list has gotten longer. My daughter started shortly after him with the list growing also as time passes. It is very aggravating to them because they have always eaten very healthy and fruit has always been a good part of their diet. They now try to eat it because they love it so but stop when the itching gets unbearable. We have spoken to Drs who have of course just said take Benedryl or another antihistimine. Why would they both develop this so closely together? What can they do to eat the fruit they love so without taking drugs.

Answer 2

If itchy mouth is the only symptom, avoidance of raw fruits or vegetables and eating only cooked versions is sufficient.

Individuals with hay fever to certain tree (birch, alder or hazel) grass or weed (such as ragweed or mugwort) pollens may experience symptoms of an allergic reaction after eating certain raw vegetables or fresh fruits. The 'oral' nature of the symptoms presumably is due to the fact that these proteins are digested by stomach juices and do not enter the bloodstream. It is unusual for these symptoms to go beyond the mouth.

Because the allergens responsible for these reactions are usually destroyed by heating or digestion, affected individuals can usually eat fruits or vegetables that have been cooked, baked, or canned. For example, a person may experience itching of the mouth and tongue after eating a fresh apple, but may be able to eat apple sauce or an apple pie without trouble.

Nutritional help for allergies -

1.Vitamin C and bioflavonoids,
2.Vitamins A & E, and Zinc
3.Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA)
4.Enzymes, pancreatic
5.Intestinal detoxification: good colon cleansing products that contain high fiber
6.Garlic, as fresh as possible
7.Cayenne pepper
8.Mangosteen: When the whole Mangosteen fruit is made into a juice it contains over 40 Xanthones. The xanthone is a powerful nutrient with a wide variety of applications. One of the active ingredients is a natural anti-histamine.

NOTE:If the juice is only made from the sweet center, it's pretty useless as a healing agent so it's important you read the label to confirm the juice is made from the whole fruit.

Hi ArmyWIfe

Here are some ideas on how to heal the issue. You also need to learn about cleansing the body of toxins by doing a colon and liver cleanse to heal for long term.

Cause of Allergies
Overall, the underlying causes of allergy and sensitivity are dietary and lifestyle factors specifically titled as imbalanced immune function, barrier function default (such as "leaky gut" syndrome), and toxic overload. Each of these are, in varying degrees, responsible for the development and continuation of allergy and sensitivity.


Herbal Medicine: There are a variety of herbs that offer relief from allergies, such as goldenseal, red sage, and goldenrod. To reduce mucus, try astringents such as yarrow and myrrh (Commiphora myrrha). These help to contract inflamed tissues and reduce secretions and discharges. To strengthen immune response use echinacea, astragalus root, goldenseal root, and Pfaffia paniculata (suma or Brazilian ginseng). These herbs can be effective and safe for treating weakened immune systems.
Eating raw Garlic and Onions will provide relief as well. The more you use the faster the relief will come.

Cayenne pepper is a favorite herb among those treating allergy patients. The active ingredient is a strong anti-inflammatory, and it is recommend to allergy suffers, including asthma patients, as a simple and effective treatment. Sprinkling liberal amounts of the pepper on meals for a few days can provide relief. Or better yet eat them raw and sweat for a few minutes. Watch your sinus clear up quickly.

Although herbal remedies have shown excellent results in reducing allergy/sensitivity symptoms, using herbs to treat allergies involves an individual approach. Some particularly effective anti-inflammatory herbs are stinging nettle, Ginkgo biloba, and licorice. Chinese skullcap, ephedra, and feverfew are others to consider for treating allergy symptoms. Patients whose conditions are severe should consult with a trained herbalist or naturopath.

A major symptom of allergies is gastrointestinal upset, including bloating, gas, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and nausea. Demulcent herbs can alleviate these symptoms (demulcent is a term used by herbalists to describe an herb that has a protective effect on the mucous membranes by minimizing irritation). The most commonly used herbs are marshmallow, slippery elm bark, cabbage juice, okra, fenugreek, and aloe vera.

Homeopathy: Homeopathy has widespread applications for the treatment of allergies. In many situations, minute diluted doses of the substance a person is allergic to can be prepared as a homeopathic solution that triggers the body`s natural ability to heal itself.

Homeopathic remedies are best prescribed by a competent homeopath. Self-diagnosis is discouraged due to the variety of factors that must be considered before the appropriate treatment is selected. However, the following remedies can be helpful: Ferrum phos, lycopodium, and silica.

Juice Therapy: A juice fast of organic vegetable juices for 2-3 weeks can help detoxify the body, thus improving its ability to cope with allergies. Two useful juice combinations for this purpose are beet, carrot, and cucumber; and carrot and celery. For added benefit, add a small piece of ginger root to either juice combination.

Answer 4

It is very possible they could be allergic to the pesticides on the fruits. I know my daughter is. I suggest they get allergy testing done to truly see what it is that they are allergic too. Usually allergies are heriditary.

Answer 5

They both need to see their allergist and see if allergy shots are available for this.
