It is necessary to consume fruits, including cherries, in moderate amounts, otherwise swelling and heartburn may occur, warned the therapist-doctor, immunologist Irina Yarseva.

"If you have eaten a lot of fruits and have not eaten anything for a long time before that, it means that your enzyme system is not ready. As a result, there will be swelling and irritation," - she said in an interview with RT.

The specialist reminded that it is necessary to wash the berries before consuming them.

According to her words, people who are allergic to birch pollen should not consume cherries, as they may have a cross-reaction to stone fruits.
