What to know about pineapple
Pineapple is low in histamine itself but a strong histamine liberator, meaning it prompts your body to release its own histamine, which can bring on flushing, hives, a runny nose or headache. It is also high in salicylates, a separate trigger. And that famous prickly, raw tongue after fresh pineapple is a third mechanism entirely: bromelain, a protein digesting enzyme that briefly breaks down the surface tissue of your mouth. Three different reasons pineapple trips people up, which is why it catches so many out.
Watch for
- Histamine liberator: although the fruit is low in histamine, it can set off flushing, hives, congestion or headache in histamine intolerant people
- High in salicylates, a separate trigger if you react to aspirin or other salicylate rich foods
- The stinging, raw feeling on your tongue is bromelain digesting proteins in your mouth, not an allergy; it settles on its own and disappears with cooked or canned pineapple, since heat destroys the enzyme
