Jeff Smith
After the excesses of summer, Christmas and, in general, any kind of food, many people look for an effective diet to reduce the extra pounds. One of these is the pineapple diet, mainly spread among the population by word of mouth and considered perfect for reducing weight in a few days. Abuse can lead to nutritional deficiencies so always consult with a doctor.

What is it?

The pineapple diet consists, as explained by the dietitian-nutritionist Jeff Nicola, how to incorporate pineapple in all meals. For example, a menu would consist of a breakfast with sliced pineapple and natural yogurt, a lunch of sliced pineapple, chicken and yogurt, and a dinner with pineapple slices and, again, plain yogurt.

Seeing this limited variety of foods begs to focus on the enormous nutritional deficiencies presented.

This fruit is used to detoxify and stimulate metabolism properties. Thanks to a compound called Bromeliad and the high proportion of water it contains, it makes the pineapple diuretic and a super food.

Erroneous features pineapple

Pineapple, apart from rich in water, contains fiber. Additionally, it contains little fat and has nutrients and vitamins that are essential. These features are similar to those of other fruits. Thus, this diet is considered effective by the enormous power of the fruit laxative but, as explained by the expert, may depend on the individual and the type of other foods they eat.

Problems

Any diet that is done without consulting a specialist can lead to problems for our health. In the specific case of the pineapple, the expert explains that its danger is that we subject the body to a deficiency situation.

The specialist is very clear that health is very important and unbalanced diets produce only frustration and problems. It is advisable, therefore, always turn to experts in nutrition for any kind of diet or because, although we think that we are cleaning or purging our body of toxins and fats. Actually what we are doing is likely endangering our health.
