Just bought a pineapple for the first time. Checked a few videos and posts on internet to see how I am supposed to cut it up, everyone said to throw the core away or use it in a smoothie at best. Even my mom said to throw it away.
Anyway, I tried to eat a small amount of it, and then ate the entire core. It’s pretty edible, feels like throwing out pizza crust.
Much more chewable than celeriac. Though I would label it as “Dental floss mandatory” type of food, but so is anything with poppy seeds.
So how do you use it? Do you eat it, throw it out, something else?
I eat it with the rest, nice crunchy texture. It does contain a higher concentration of bromelain; which is good for inflammationand reducing eye floaters. Bromelain is found in the rest of the pineapple and you only get reduction of eye floaters after a few months of daily use.
That eye floater bit sounds sketchy af
You are eating the core/bromelain, not putting it in your eye.
Yes I know, that’s why it’s so weird. In what way does that work?
If you suggested rubbing it in, at least the vector would be clear to me.
It’s there any paper in this, or is it purely anecdotal?
It breaks down the collagen that causes most eye floaters.
There was a 2019(?) study out of Taiwan, 3 months of daily use saw up to a 70% reduction.
I did try it myself and had a reduction, I didn’t follow the study’s dosages so my results weren’t mind-blowing. I will be doing another round at about the highest dosage with all enzymes included, fingers crossed.
