The annoyance of onlookers: why does eating melons stab the throat?

But onlookers have a sweet worry, that is, sometimes a thorn in the throat occurs after eating melons. Then why is there such a phenomenon? Why is this not the case with some melons?

Some people say that eating melons stings in the throat because the sugar content is too high, causing dehydration of some cells in the throat when eating, which produces the so-called tingling sensation. This seems reasonable, we can recall that we have eaten sugar and honey, their sugar content is higher than muskmelon, why we do not eat the phenomenon of stinging the throat, just feel sweet.

In fact, the culprit of the throat is the protein in melons, yes, plants also contain proteins. Proteins exist in a variety of forms, such as proteins that control the entry of substances into cells on the cell membrane, enzymes that promote life synthesis in cells, and histones for DNA winding. The proteins in melons cause only mild allergies, and tingling in the mouth is the slightest allergic reaction. other serious allergic symptoms include vomiting, rash, difficulty swallowing, and may even cause lower blood pressure. Generally speaking, friends who are allergic to pollen have a very high probability of being allergic to melons, so these friends should be careful when eating melons.

Some onlookers may reflect that some melons prick their throat, while others do not. This is because different varieties or even different melons of the same variety are different. Generally speaking, ordinary allergies do not need to be treated, and if there is a serious case, you need to see a doctor as soon as possible.
