The Philippines has abundant supply of pineapples from local producers. This fruit is popular locally and is also exported. More than just a tropical fruit in salads, cake ingredients and eaten as it is, pineapple is rich in fiber, Vitamins A, E and C as well as minerals phosphorus, iron and calcium. These make pineapple a cheap material for daily detoxification. First, the fiber helps the body eliminate unwanted fat from the diet and the minerals allow a healthy exchange of toxic materials for a natural flush.
The enzyme in pineapple, called bromelain, helps eliminate intestinal parasites. What’s more, the combination of bromelain from pineapple plus resveratrol from grapes has been found to be synergistic in helping people achieve weight loss. Resveratrol is available in the local market as “Slenda”. We therefore recommend that people using the product “Slenda” also eat pineapple as part of a daily healthy diet. Can pineapple juice be substitute? Yes, you can if the juice is made from 100% pineapple.
