Brilio.net - Eating fruit every day is very beneficial because it contains vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. One of the popular fruits is pineapple, which is known for its sweet, fresh, and water-rich taste. According to webmd.com, pineapple contains vitamin C, manganese, vitamin B6, and folic acid.

Some people avoid pineapple because it can cause itching on the tongue and mouth. This is caused by the enzyme bromelain found in pineapple. However, this itching usually goes away after a few minutes because saliva and stomach acid neutralize it.

In addition, many people are reluctant to eat pineapple because its skin is difficult to peel. Pineapple skin has a texture similar to thorns, unlike other fruits that have smooth and thin skin. However, the health benefits offered by pineapple make it worth enjoying.
