9. Recovery Assistance
The bromelain in pineapples strikes again. Because of the benefits of this nutrient, those who eat pineapple often may find that they engage in physical recovery from tough workouts or sometimes even surgery much faster than those who don’t consumer it.4Pavan, Rajendra, Sapna Jain, Shraddha and Ajay Kumar. ‘Properties and Therapeutic Application of Bromelain: A Review.’ Biotechnology Research International, 201 - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3529416/pdf/BTRI2012-976203.pdf.
This is ideal for those who engage in strength training or are preparing for a sporting event or marathon and don’t have unlimited recovery time in the training process.
