Pineapple (Bromelia ananas Linne) is a tropical fruit with a sweet smelling aroma and a sweet tangy flavor.
Pineapple is a very good source of Vitamin C and Manganese as well as dietary fiber, thiamin, Vitamin B6 and copper. Foods high in Vitamin C such as Pineapple have been shown to support the immune system and possibly enhance iron absorption. However, the real champion of nutrition in this tropical fruit is bromelain, a combination of enzymes that has shown the potential for an anti-inflammatory effect as well as benefiting the digestive and cardiovascular systems
