Pineapple for the girl or pineapple for the skin? By dermatologist Laura Habib

Pineapple is a tropical fruit that has been attributed to multiple benefits for general health, especially, at the gastrointestinal level. It has also been described that its consumption can offer many benefits for the skin.

What is the composition of pineapple?

It is rich in vitamins A, B, C, folic acid, minerals such as potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium; among others.

What specific properties does it have in the pineapple?

  • Antioxidant
  • Repairer
  • Anti-inflammatory
  • Draining
  • Detoxifying
  • Regulator of the microbiota

What is the biggest secret of pineapple?

Contains the enzyme Bromelain, which helps to process proteins, thus favoring:

  • Removal of body fat
  • Healing
  • Tissue renewal
  • Elasticity
  • Prevents the formation of bruises or blood clots

Except for allergic patients, all those who like and can take advantage of its benefits, do not hesitate to regularly consume pineapple in infusion, chopped fruit, or green smoothies. I recommend it, especially after dermatological or surgical procedures. Please give it a try, you won't regret it!
