beetroot allergy

[banned-dot]

Can anyone tell me what it is in the pickled jars of beetroot that i am allergic to? I get large red bumps that are very itchu all over after eating it. I am sure this has only started recently. I can eat fresh beets from the market ok but I had pickled beeroot again on friday evening and started with the rash saturday afternoon at work. I knew it would happen, and I know it has only started recently, well, in the last few months, prior to that i am sure i never got them like this!!

Vinegar perhaps??

yes, vinegar can have a lot of histamine, so try some piriton

Or.........if your rash is the spotty kind, you can make a feature of them and have hours of fun into the bargain by joining the dots and seeing what pictures you can create.

That reminds me of an episode of the Dick Van Dyke show where he thought he had the shape of the liberty bell with ******* lol

It may be vinegar, i donl;t use vinegar at all on anything else, so maybe, what is vinegar again?? I know i know, it's one of those acid questions lol

I have been reading up online about beetroot and actually I have realised that there may be a link between being alergic to something in beetroot and not being able to absorb iron when i have iron tablets, anyone any idea what it might be???
