00:00When you eat pineapple, your body goes through a quick and powerful chain reaction.
00:04The moment the sweet, tangy pieces hit your tongue, enzymes called bromelain start breaking
00:08down proteins, including the ones in your mouth, which is why pineapple can sometimes make your
00:13tongue feel tingly or sore. As you chew, its high water content hydrates your mouth while
00:17the natural sugars give you an instant energy lift. Once the pineapple reaches your stomach,
00:21bromelain keeps working, helping your body digest protein more efficiently. The fruit's
00:25vitamin C boosts your immune system, supporting your cells, and helping your skin produce more
00:29collagen. Meanwhile, manganese, another mineral in pineapple, helps strengthen your bones and
00:34supports metabolism. As pineapple moves through your intestines, its fiber absorbs water and
00:39softens stool, improving digestion and preventing constipation. The antioxidants in pineapple also
00:44reduce inflammation throughout your body, protecting your tissues from damage. In the end, your body
00:49gets a refreshing burst of hydration, energy, and digestive support, all from a few juicy bites of
00:55pineapple.
