Benefits of Drinking Pineapple Water
Fruit-infused water is a healthy and fresh alternative to other flavored drinks packed with sugars and artificial flavoring. Pineapple water is light, unsweetened and doesn’t have the acidity of regular pineapple. Consequently, it is delicious and easy on even the most delicate stomachs.
Pineapple water contains all the anti-inflammatory and cleansing properties of pineapples. Sip on a tall glass of pineapple-infused water knowing the bromelain in pineapples helps kickstart your liver into synthesizing vitamins and proteins. This sweet drink is packed with enzymes and antioxidants to cleanse your body and promote healthy digestion.
Although this tropical treat is delicious at any time of day, it is the most effective first thing in the morning. Why? An empty stomach will better absorb all the good nutrients pineapple has to offer!
Bonus: The added mint aids digestion and combats headaches!
