What can we say - the first major benefit of pineapple is actually obvious as soon as you look at our sunny golden fruit:
Pineapples contain the natural flavoring substance vanillin, which boosts the production of the happiness hormone serotonin and its precursor tryptophan. This alleviates stress and brightens the mood. A real mood booster and in its natural state.
But that's not all: pineapples contain a lot of vitamin C. Vitamin C is essential for a healthy immune system. As a powerful antioxidant, it protects body cells from attacks by free radicals. In addition, the mineral iron is much better absorbed by the body when it is consumed in combination with vitamin C.
Pineapple is also a source of magnesium: for a fruit, pineapple contains a lot of magnesium. This mineral prevents restlessness, headaches, tiredness and, last but not least, muscle cramps.
If you've read this far, you're in for a treat:
The bromelain contained in pineapple consists of two protein-splitting enzymes that play a central role in the digestion of proteins. They help to break down protein molecules from food. This makes it easier for the body to absorb proteins and process them more efficiently. This not only makes proteins from food more digestible, but also promotes and optimizes muscle building.
Digestive problems? Then try our dried organic pineapple. According to numerous studies, pineapple is said to have a positive effect on digestion. The active ingredient bromelain is therefore also good for our stomach.
And last but not least, many studies say that pineapple has a natural balancing effect: the minerals contained in pineapple have a strong alkalizing effect and therefore help to keep the body's acid-base balance in equilibrium.
Well, if you're not already a huge fan of our TWIGA organic pineapple, you certainly will be from now on. Give it a try. Our sunny, golden fruit has become an integral part of our everyday lives.
