Are Miracle Fruit safe to eat?
Miracle Fruit are perfectly safe to eat. Years ago, several entrepreneurs tried to get approval from the FDA to use Miracle Fruit as an artificial sweetener, and they went through years of testing. From reports I’ve read, test animals that were fed Miracle Fruit berries for extended periods ended up healthier than the control animals who ate none. I’ve also read that back in the 1960’s, there was a guy trying to start a business selling Miracle Fruit seeds. One man was responsible for getting the seeds from the berries, and he ate 100 berries at a time to clean them. After eating countless thousands of the berries over the years, the man was perfectly healthy. I have not found any evidence of a person being allergic to Miracle Fruit, though I’m guessing that it is always possible. If anyone reading this has any experience with allergies to Miracle Fruit, or can find anything online about it, please email me with the details at webmaster@magicalfruit.com.
