Enlightened Factoid

Pineapple is the sole source of bromelain, a protein digesting enzyme compound that aids digestion and boosts healing. This powerful anti-inflammatory and analgesic is very effective in treating bruises, sprains and strains by reducing swelling, tenderness and pain.

Choose a brightly colored pineapple with deep green leaves and a sweet aroma that is plump and heavy for its size.
