Can I eat mango if I have skin allergies? Why?

There are many friends who suffer from skin allergies in life, but many of them have different allergens. People who suffer from skin allergies should not eat mangoes, because mangoes contain some aldehyde acid, which will have a certain chemical effect on the skin's mucous membrane and easily cause sensitivity.

1. Cannot be eaten. Mango is the fruit of the mango tree, an evergreen tree of the Anacardiaceae family. Especially unripe mangoes contain aldehyde acid, which has a certain irritating effect on the skin and mucous membranes. Mango dermatitis generally occurs in areas that come into contact with mangoes and are not washed with water in time. It is more common at the corners of the mouth, upper and lower jaws or cheeks. The rash is evenly or irregularly distributed light red spots. Dense and small papules or needle-sized blisters can be seen on the erythema. The rash has a mild itching or burning sensation.

2. People with skin allergies should eat mangoes according to their physical condition. Mangoes contain a lot of fiber, which can promote bowel movements and is beneficial for preventing and treating constipation. Mango fruits contain sugar, protein and crude fiber. The content of carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, is particularly high in mangoes, which is rare among all fruits. Secondly, the vitamin C content is not low. Furthermore, minerals, proteins, fats, carbohydrates, etc. are also its main nutrients.

3. Mangoes can cause skin allergies. The main reason is that mangoes contain a lot of irritating substances such as fruit acid and amino acids. When people eat mangoes, it is easy for mango juice to get on the lips, cheeks and other parts of the body, irritating the facial skin and causing facial redness, swelling and inflammation. In severe cases, redness, swelling and pain in the eyes will occur. People with allergies or sensitive skin are advised not to eat mangoes.
