Here’s a summer fruit you won’t want to leave out of your diet. Prickly on the outside, sweet and juicy within, the pineapple has been a healthy staple for centuries. One cup of pineapple has only 74 calories and provides 94% of your RDA of vitamin C. It’s also high in manganese, an important mineral for the body’s muscle tone and nerve and bone health. A good source of dietary fiber, pineapple contains the enzyme bromelin, which breaks down protein and may aid in digestion and even help the body heal.
