HOW PINEAPPLE HELPS IN CURING VARIOUS DISEASES

-



1. Full with nutrients 

As you can see, this fruit is particularly rich in vitamin C and manganese. Vitamin C is essential for immune health, iron absorption, and growth and development, while manganese offers antioxidant properties and aids in growth and metabolism Pineapples are low in calories but boast an impressive nutrient profile. Just 1 cup (165 grams) of pineapple chunks contains the following nutrients :-

  • Calories: 83
  • Fat: 1.7 grams
  • Protein: 1 gram
  • Carbs: 21.6 grams
  • Fiber: 2.3 grams
  • Vitamin C: 88% of the Daily Value (DV)
  • Manganese: 109% of the DV
  • Vitamin B6: 11% of the DV
  • Copper: 20% of the DV
  • Thiamine: 11% of the DV

Pineapples also contain trace amounts of phosphorus, zinc, calcium, and vitamins A and K.

 

2. Fights disease with the help antioxidants

Pineapples are not only rich in nutrients but also loaded with antioxidants, molecules that help your body ward off oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is caused by an abundance of free radicals, unstable molecules that cause cell damage often linked to chronic inflammation, weakened immune health, heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers.

Pineapples are especially rich in antioxidants called flavonoids and phenolic compounds. Two rat studies show that pineapple’s antioxidants may have heart-protective effects, though human research is lacking.


3. It make  digestion fast and useful

You’ll often find pineapple served alongside meats and poultry in countries such as Brazil. Interestingly, this fruit contains a group of digestive enzymes called bromelain that may ease the digestion of meat. Bromelain functions as a protease, which breaks down protein molecules into their building blocks, such as amino acids and small peptides . Once protein molecules are broken down, your small intestine can more easily absorb them. This is especially helpful for people with pancreatic insufficiency, a condition in which the pancreas cannot make enough digestive enzymes

4. it reduce level of cancer

Cancer is a chronic disease characterized by uncontrolled cell growth. Its progression is commonly linked to oxidative stress and chronic inflammation. Several studies note that pineapple and its compounds, including bromelain, may by minimizing oxidative stress and reducing inflammation . Some studies show that bromelain may also help treat cancer that has already developed .For instance, one test-tube study found that bromelain suppressed the growth of breast cancer cells and stimulated cell death, while a mouse study found that bromelain enhanced the effects of anticancer therapy.


5. Increases full immunity and suppresses inflammation
Pineapples have been used in for medicine for centuries. They contain a wide variety of vitamins, minerals, and enzymes such as bromelain that may collectively improve immunity and reduce inflammation . In an older 9-day study, 98 healthy children ate either no pineapple, roughly 1 cup (140 grams) of pineapple, or roughly 2 cups (280 grams) of pineapple daily. Those who ate pineapple had a significantly lower risk of both viral and bacterial infections. Plus, the children who ate the most of this fruit had almost four times more disease-fighting white blood cells than the other groups
6. it easly show symptoms of arthritis

Arthritis affects more than 54 million adults in the United States alone. Many types of arthritis exist, but most involve joint inflammation . Bromelain’s anti-inflammatory properties may provide pain relief for those with inflammatory arthritis. One study found bromelain supplements to be as effective in easing osteoarthritis in the lower back as regular pain treatment

7. Rapid speed recovery after surgery or strenuous exercise

Eating pineapple may reduce the time it takes to recover from surgery or exercise.

While this fruit helps replenish carb stores after exercise, some of its benefits are also due to the anti-inflammatory properties of bromelain . Several studies have shown that bromelain may reduce the inflammation, swelling, bruising, and pain that often occur after surgery, including dental and skin procedures. It may likewise reduce markers of inflammation . Two research  suggest that bromelain may reduce discomfort, pain, or swelling after dental surgery, more over People with diabetes should be mindful of serving sizes to keep their blood sugar stable

Eat appropriately in which the body need to utilize.

Listed below are some of the benefits which organic products gives to the body rather than inorganic products. 1: New products from farm Organic produce is purchased fresh from farmers. At the supermarket, on the other hand, we don’t know how long the produce has been stored before it has been put on the shelves, nor for how long it is out on the floor. Produce from overseas may also have been travelling for a long time before it has even arrived in the country, let alone made it to the supermarket .  2: Chemical and pesticides free Farmers who follow organic principles do not add chemicals to improve or fasten its growth. Organic fruit and vegetables follow the seasonal cycle and are only available when they grow naturally. In our consumer-driven society, people expect any and ev...
