The reason why pineapple hurts the tongue
After the pineapple is imported, the protein in the tongue and mouth is gradually broken down by the enzyme, so the protein covered mucous membrane is exposed. This is the cause of the tingling in the mouth. The tongue is sensitive to the sour taste of pineapple, which leads to tingling. Different from person to person, some people will feel needlework and pain.
However, since protein is often secreted in human saliva, the tongue will be covered with protein again after eating.

How can pineapple hurt your tongue
Pineapple contains an alkaloid, called pineapple prion enzyme, which is a proteolytic enzyme that can hydrolyze muscle tissue and dissolve fibrin in it, so the tongue will feel damaged. Therefore, when eating pineapple, it is necessary to soak pineapple in salt water to minimize the invasion of this enzyme to muscle tissue.
Therefore, in the future when eating pineapple, we must pay attention to using light salt water to soak the pineapple for about half an hour before eating. If you have eaten pineapple without salt water, and your tongue is tingling, you can drink some salt water, or rinse your mouth with salt water. If you rinse several times, you can relieve the tingling.
