Pineapple, widely eaten in Togo, is one of the most effective fruits for purifying the body gently and losing weight naturally. This delicious, fresh fruit has many properties and benefits for the body.

Thanks to its diuretic properties, pineapple helps the body to eliminate excess fluid and prevent fluid retention, while getting rid of the toxins that invade the body. Water retention is generally caused by a sedentary lifestyle, an excessively salty diet or a malfunctioning circulatory system.  Pineapple, like any other diuretic, should be consumed naturally and in reasonable quantities, as excessive fluid loss can lead to dehydration.

Pineapple for weight loss

The first benefit of pineapple is obviously weight loss, because by eliminating excess fluid from the body, you naturally lose thickness in areas where water retention tends to take hold, such as the stomach and thighs. What's more, thanks to their low calorie content, pineapples (glycaemic index 50), which are mainly made up of water, are a fruit that can be eaten without any impact on our daily calorie intake. The fibre contained in pineapple regulates intestinal transit and aids the digestion process. Pineapple also contains bromelain, a very useful enzyme that effectively processes proteins that are difficult to break down. This substance helps prevent constipation or bloating associated with foods that our digestive system has difficulty absorbing. To reap all its benefits, it's best to eat pineapple the same day it's sliced, when it still has all its nutrients intact, including the fibre it contains.
