Can pregnant women eat jackfruit?

Patient's question:

Patient Gender: Female
Problem Description: Can pregnant women eat pineapple?

Doctor's answer:

It is edible, but some taboos need to be noted.
1. Jackfruit should not be eaten with honey.
Honey and jackfruit are both normal foods that are harmless to the human body. However, when the two foods are eaten together and mixed, their molecular structures change and expand continuously. After consumption, they react with each other to produce some gases, causing the intestines to inflate. In severe cases, it may even be life-threatening.
2. Pregnant women should not eat too much jackfruit, as it can cause chest tightness and nausea. It may also trigger allergic reactions, such as redness of the skin, rashes, itching, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and anaphylactic shock. It is generally believed that this is related to allergies to the bromelain contained in jackfruit.
3. The main edible parts of jackfruit are the seeds, which taste similar to chestnuts. However, they must be cooked before consumption. Eating them raw is not good for the body and is also difficult to digest.
4. When eating, first wipe off the white sap from the skin, then use a small knife to dig out the flesh and dip it in clean water or saltwater. If the white sap gets on your hands, you can wipe it off with a little cooking oil.
