10. Suppresses Inflammation
Thanks again to those handy antioxidants found in pineapples, the body may resolve inflammation quicker after consuming this bright yellow fruit.1Brien, Sarah, George Lewish, Ann Walker, Stephen M. Hicks and Dick Middleton. ‘Bromelain as a Treatment for Osteoarthritis: A Review of Clinical Studies.’ Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, vol. 1, no. 3, 200, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC538506/pdf/neh035.pdf. This is important to maintaining balance and wellness in the body, as the immune system doesn’t have to work nearly as hard if the body is doing a good job of keeping inflammation at bay.
Moreover, this ensures that those conditions that feed on inflammation don’t have room to grow.
