PINEAPPLE’S HEALTH BENEFITS

Pineapple contains 131% of your daily Vitamin C requirement. Vitamin C is extremely important for both immune function and collagen synthesis.
One medium pineapple contains about 13 grams of fibre, which is extremely important for lowering your risk of colon cancer and managing blood sugar levels.

Bromelain, an active enzyme found in pineapple cores (eat them! ), aids in the breakdown of proteins into peptides and amino acids. Bromelain has also been used to treat ulcerative colitis and acid reflux symptoms.

Bromelain has also been used to treat pain and inflammation, particularly in patients suffering from arthritis.
