It’s a unique fruit with healthy benefits!
Named after pinecones and pollinated by hummingbirds, pineapple is more than just a tasty treat—it’s also great for your overall health.
Pineapples are high in magnesium, zinc, phosphorus, and vitamins K, A, and C. These vitamins and minerals are great for your bones, eyes, skin, and teeth. They also can increase wound healing and decrease blood clots.
