This tropical fruit is high in the enzyme bromelain and the antioxidant vitamin C, both plays a major role in the body's healing process. Bromelain is very effective in treating bruises, sprains and strains by reducing swelling, tenderness and pain. This powerful anti-inflammatory effect can also help relieve rheumatoid arthritis symptoms and reduce postoperative swelling. This enzyme helps break down the amino acid bonds in proteins, which promotes good digestion. Also the vitamin C and the bromelain, helps suppress coughs and loosens the mucus that often accompanies colds. One cup of fresh pineapple, has 73 percent of the manganese you need a day.
