Pineapple tea, as the name suggests, includes pineapple. But not just the part that you eat. It is made by infusing pineapple fruit or even its leaves in hot water. This tea comes with many benefits as the tropical fruit is highly rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. The tea is known for its sweet and tangy flavour. 

Pineapple contains a digestive enzyme called bromelain. This enzyme is known for its anti-inflammatory properties and its potential to reduce swelling and inflammation in various parts of the body. 

Consuming pineapple tea regularly helps in improving digestion and alleviates digestive issues such as bloating, constipation, and indigestion. It also has many other benefits. Here is why you should consume pineapple tea.

Balances blood sugar levels

Pineapple tea has dietary fibre and nutrients which helps in the regulation of glucose levels.

Weight management

Like many other teas, pineapple tea also helps in weight management. It is very useful when you want to get rid of belly fat. It can work wonders and has a very low calorie count.

Relieves allergies 

Pineapple tea also helps in relieving allergies. If you have chronic inflammation, you may have an overstimulated and overworked immune system. The bromelain enzyme and pineapple tea in general are more helpful for symptom management.
