New Delhi: Jambu is known for its sour and sweet taste. It is not only delicious but also loaded with many health benefits. Jambu is rich in antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, which help prevent diabetes, heart disease and digestive problems.
But do you know that purple colour acts as poison for some people. Yes, consumption of Jambu can be harmful for some people. Let us know for which people consumption of Jambu can prove harmful.
1. Diabetic patients
The naturally occurring sugars in jamun help lower blood sugar levels. But if you are already taking diabetes medications, excessive consumption of jamun can lower blood sugar levels too much, leading to hypoglycemia (increase/decrease in blood sugar).
2. Digestive problems
Jamun is high in fiber, which helps improve digestion. But if you already have digestive problems like diarrhea, bloating or gas, consuming jamun can aggravate the problem.
3. Allergies
Some people are allergic to the color purple. Allergy symptoms may include skin rash, itching, swelling, stomach pain, vomiting, or difficulty breathing. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any of these symptoms after eating jambu.
4. Pregnant or breastfeeding women
Pregnant or breastfeeding women should be cautious while consuming jamun. Some compounds in jamun may stimulate the uterus and increase the risk of premature labor or miscarriage. Some compounds in jamun pass into breast milk and may cause allergies or digestive problems in infants.
5. Atherosclerosis
People with a history of atherosclerosis or blood clots should also not consume berries.
