Tag: Excessive pineapple consumption

While one cup of fresh pineapple contains around 82 calories and is a great source of Vitamin C, eating an entire pineapple in one sitting is not recommended and can lead to several unpleasant side effects. The key isn't that pineapple is inherently bad, but rather that excessive consumption of any food, especially a nutrient-dense and acidic one, can shock the body.

Pineapple contains a proteolytic enzyme called bromelain, which breaks down protein and can cause oral irritation when consumed in excess. When you eat too much pineapple, your body may experience a range of side effects, from digestive problems to allergic reactions.
