Boost Your Sleep with This Melatonin-Rich Yellow Fruit

Research suggests that consuming pineapple before bed can improve sleep quality due to its high levels of sleep-supportive nutrients like vitamin C, magnesium, and melatonin. A study published in the Journal of Pineal Research found that pineapple, along with other fruits like oranges and bananas, significantly increased melatonin levels in the blood, which can aid in better sleep. The NHS also provides additional tips for improving sleep hygiene, such as maintaining a consistent sleep schedule and creating a relaxing bedtime environment.

"Exploring the Healthful Wonders of Pineapple Nutrition"

Pineapple is a tropical fruit packed with health benefits due to its high vitamin, mineral, and antioxidant content. It contains bromelain, an enzyme aiding digestion and potentially reducing inflammation, which may help with recovery post-exercise and surgery. Pineapple supports immune function, may have cardioprotective effects, and contributes to skin and bone health. However, it should be consumed in moderation due to its acidity and carbohydrate content, which can affect blood sugar levels and tooth enamel.

The Truth Behind the Pineapple Sleep Hack: Expert Verdict

The viral TikTok trend of eating pineapple before bed for better sleep is supported by the melatonin-boosting properties of the fruit, but sleep coach Dave Gibson suggests that Montmorency tart cherries are an even better option due to their higher melatonin levels. Melatonin helps regulate the body's internal clock and promotes sleep. Other foods like eggs, fish, nuts, and certain fruits and vegetables are also good dietary sources of melatonin. However, indulging in junk food can contribute to sleeplessness. TikTok users have shared their positive experiences with pineapple, claiming it helps them fall asleep faster and sleep deeper.

How to Soothe the Burning Sensation of 'Pineapple Tongue', According to an ENT

How to Soothe the Burning Sensation of 'Pineapple Tongue', According to an ENT

Pineapple tongue, a burning and tingling sensation experienced by many after consuming pineapple, is not typically caused by an allergy but rather by an enzyme called bromelain found in the fruit. Bromelain breaks down protein in the mouth's lining, leading to irritation, and the natural acidity of pineapples can further exacerbate the discomfort. While the damage is usually mild and the tissue begins to heal itself after consumption, severe symptoms may indicate a pineapple allergy, which requires medical attention. To prevent pineapple tongue, avoiding the stem, rubbing salt on pineapple, soaking it in salt water, cooking it, or pairing it with dairy-based products can help mitigate the reaction.
