Pineapple also reduces the recovery time from surgeries, injuries and treats illnesses such as arteriosclerosis and anemia. Pineapple reduces the chances of blood clotting; the calcium in pineapple can help to build up healthy bones. Pineapple is a rich source of vitamin C reducing colds and periodontal diseases and can build up the body’s immune system. Pineapple is also rich in sulfur that can help to digest your food.
