Kiwi is consumed fresh or is processed to fruit salads, granolas, drinks, pastries, fruit pie aromas and to jams. Moreover, kiwi is available as a canned food or deep-frozen.
Cross reactions: Kiwis have common allergenic structures with latex. If one is allergic or sensitised to latex, then there is the possibility of a cross reaction to kiwis. After the consumption of kiwis, allergic reactions may occur even if you have never eaten kiwis before. The indoor plant Benjamin’s fig is another possible source for this allergen. If one is sensitised to the plant, you shouldn’t have it in your rooms. Other possible cross reaction: Kiwis have common allergenic structures with birch pollen, namely the so called Bet V1-allergen. If one reacts allergic to birch pollen or is sensitive to it, allergic reactions are possible if one consumes kiwis. You can find alternatives to kiwis as well as other kinds of fruit when extending the ImuPro Basic to ImuPro Complete.
