One cup of fresh pineapple (approximately 165 grams) is a tropical, nutrient-rich fruit that hails from Central and South America but is now enjoyed worldwide. Bursting with flavor, this juicy delight offers a natural sweetness alongside a wealth of vitamins and minerals, most notably vitamin C and manganese, essential for immune function and bone health. Pineapple is also known for bromelain, a unique enzyme that aids digestion and may reduce inflammation. Low in calories and packed with hydration, it’s an excellent option for a healthy snack or ingredient in smoothies, salads, and a variety of global cuisines, including Caribbean and Asian dishes. However, its natural sugars can be high, so moderation is key for those monitoring their sugar intake. High acidity may also cause discomfort for sensitive individuals when overconsumed. Fresh, vibrant, and versatile, pineapple is a delicious way to brighten up any dish while nourishing the body.
