Pineapples - packed with goodness
Not only are Dole's Tropical Gold pineapples juicy and sweet but they are a great, natural way to get the goodness of vitamins into a daily diet. Children will love the sweet taste of Dole Tropical Gold pineapple as it has less acidity than normal pineapple and therefore appears sweeter without the extra calories.
This is what Dole Food Company, Inc. tells us about pineapple:
One serving (2 slices, 112g) of pineapple has only 60 calories and provides an excellent source of vitamin C and manganese. Fresh pineapples are the only known source of bromelain, an enzyme whose anti-inflammatory properties may alleviate symptoms of osteoarthritis, making pineapple a Superfood for your Joints. Research shows bromelain may also help heal injuries, reduce inflammation associated with asthma and inhibit the growth of malignant cells in both lung and breast cancer. A nutrient combo including bromelain cut down plastic surgery recovery time by 17% according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
