What are symptoms of beet sugar allergy?
I'm very allergic to beets. When I was a child and my mother served beets, I could feel my throat contract when I swallowed them. Then I would get a stomach ache and other digestive disturbances. In adulthood, I tried eating beet tops and became very ill--stomach pains and vomiting. Never again. If you are allergic to beets, read labels. They are used in some health foods as a natural coloring agent. Some yogurts and drinks contain beet juice to give them an attractive pink color. My reaction is tingling on my tongue, burning chest, some tightness in the chest. I took 2 benedryl for some relief until it passes! It took several times for me to realize I cannot juice and drink beets. The feeling is horrible. The reaction, unfortunately lasts for several hours. I also read in the Juiceman book, that drinking too much beet juice can cause temporary paralisis of the vocal cords. Odd, scary actually. Another answer.... My mouth burns, and I get small blisters on my tongue. My throat gets sore, and my intestines feel like I chewed and swallowed broken glass. These symptoms heal in a few days. Also, I never eat anything with just "sugar" listed as an ingredient, because it may be beet sugar. Beets are also used in many whole food vitamins, and small beet greens often lurk in many prewashed salads that contain a large variety of greens - look for red veined leaves. I was told once this was contact dermatitis, and maybe not a true allergy.
