This alkalizing pineapple green juice contains the perfect marriage of ingredients for total digestive-system balance and cramp-easing abilities. Pineapple is a major anti-inflammatory, due to its special enzyme called bromelain, which aids in the breakdown of fats and proteins, helping to reduce inflammation, and improve digestion.
Inflammation is often seen in those suffering from arthritis and gout, and is also a natural body response to injury. The anti-inflammatory effects of pineapple help ease these conditions, as well as help relax muscles after a workout, and ease painful cramps (helpful for ladies on their moon-time!).
There are also a handful of different greens in this juice, like zucchini, cucumber, celery, spinach and kale, all of which provide chlorophyll, vitamins and minerals to the body, creating an overall alkalizing effect!
