They may aid in digestion, weight loss, and reduce stress. Pineapples contain bromelain, a group of enzymes that may aid in breaking down proteins &amp; much more! Whether you eat it fresh, stir-fried, blended, or roasted this fantastic fruit works well in many dishes &amp; hence why I wanted to try it as a tea. I have soaked other fruits in this manner in the past, with great results. Every 2.5 weeks, I make a batch of Pineapple Tea, which is a great way to use the skin and fruit flesh that is normally discarded.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-image-carousel  su-image-carousel-columns-3
