Pineapple Health Benefits


Pineapples are consumed fresh, cooked, juiced, and preserved, and are found in a wide array of cuisines. In addition to consumption, in the Philippines the pineapple's leaves are used to produce the textile fiber piñaemployed as a component of wall paper and furnishings, among  other uses.


Along with vitamins and minerals, eating raw, fresh pineapple or drinking fresh pineapple juice provides a number of beneficial enzymes to your diet.

Enzymes found in pineapple include bromelain, which is believed to help reduce inflammation. Other unsubstantiated claims include things like:
·         Helps with the digestion of protein
·         Helps prevent blood clots
·         Reduction of certain types of tumor growth
·         Help improve circulation

Bromelain can also be purchased as a supplement and is sometimes called pineapple enzyme
