I have a habit of drinking too much soda while at work so I've been taking pine apple juice and mixing it with a little bit of sprite and it satisfies the craving for carbonated soda, is a lot healthier and tastes great

Thanks for detailed information. I also heard that eating pineapple can reduce weight naturally . Squeeze 1 lemon ,mix in 1 tea spoon of honey ,take it with a glass of water on the empty stomack in the morning and you definetely will reduce weight.

Pineapple supposedly calms children down, it is especially recommended for hyperactive children, such as those with ADHD. Does anyone know the specifics as to why?
Does the pinapple have to be fresh or can you use canned? I am wondering this because I know fresh pinapple is a bit differnt as you can not use it with jello, it will not set. But canned can be used so something must be missing in the canned pinapple.
