Pineapple Core??

in Trying to Get Pregnant

Hey Ladies,  this cycle I decided to give the Pineapple core thing a try.   I just sliced up the whole pineapple and have been eating it in chunks (core + the rest of the fruit) since 1dpo (I'm just using OPK's/not charting).

 I was just reading the the GP blog,  and noticed on the supplement page under pineapple it says "make sure it is the core only."    Does anybody know why you are only supposed to eat the core? Does the fruit itself have negative side effects that I should know about?

Thanks!

    Supposedly the actual fruit has a chemical in it that can cause uterine contractions and prevent implantation.

    ya, thanks!  I totally didn't know that. I had tried google,  but I couldn't find much information about it.  I guess I'll just stick to the core.

    The whole pineapple is full of bromine, but it is concentrated in the core.
