Mangos okay to eat??

Hey everyone.. In a flair right now for over a month but finally comin out of it! :) great feeling... but still on the flair diet... I read somewhere that mangos were okay to eat and easy to digest.. I've been staying away from fresh fruit, is this true about mangos though???? it's like my FAVORITE fruit and if I can eat mangos I would be very very happy

Alright awesome!!! very good news for me! found my new snack for the day! yes yes yes :) haha

Nobody can tell you if your gut will react ok to mangos or not. It's all about trial and error when it comes to diet and UC.

Quincy and Fruitgirl alright and thanks

Mom's picking some mangos up right now on the way home for her lunch break.. gonna try them out and let yall know how it goes... I'm praying they agree with me because they are literally my favorite fruit (Florida born boy) haha

Again, it's trial and error!

I personally stayed away from raw fruits when I was flaring, because chunks of it came out whole in my stool, and that just icked me out. I think I was sick enough that it was too hard to tell if it made things worse, really. Do you like apples? I like to make cooked apples when they're nice and fresh and in season (right now!). I peel and slice a fairly tart apple (Jonathan, Johagold, Granny Smith, etc), then sprinkle just a bit of sugar and salt on it, put in a splash of water and a pat of butter, then microwave. You can cook them just enough to take the crunch out, or cook it all the way down until it's kind of like hot applesauce. It tastes a lot better (IMO), than applesauce, but I think it's easier on the gut than a raw apple.

Now that I'm in remission, I can eat anything. This summer, I ate a ton of grape tomatoes, raspberries, and sweet corn all in one day. The next day, I had some massive pooping. I was a bit scared at first, wondering if a flare was starting again (not due to food, but just starting), but then I reminded myself that was a NORMAL reaction for my colon, or for anyone's!

Mango, papaya, kiwi and pineapple are all natural digestive enzymes, when eaten after each meal they can actually aid with digesting/breaking down your food, less work on the gut when you eat digestive enzymes. People that cannot tolerate them in their natural form use supplement form, often offered in the same flavores as the natural ones.

Ripe mangos give me watery D and green mangos gives me hives. I hate mangos

I just sipped some of the leftover juice from my frozen dethawed peaches.. mistaaaaake. What do you think about peaches?

*shrug* I freeze them and toss em in smoothies. Haven't bothered me. Fruit actually never bothers me unless I'm flaring, and even then it's the fiber. If that's an issue for you, try canned fruit, or try stewing it (warm cinnamon apples mmm).

I've never had issues with papaya or any other fruits or veggies.

:)

Hey everyone about 1 in the morning now and I had TWO mangos and a kiwi earlier.... not making me feel any worse so hey guess i found my new snacks!
