Why Pinneapple?

most definetly. I'm trading in my supplements for foods during the upcoming months... back to basics

there is that frame of mind coming back into the scene
dr andrew weil is a "new" pioneer in that way of thinking
and alot of the new wonderfoods that you see coming out now such as gojiberries and noni berries are found under other names in chinatown dried
i add gojiberries (chinese wolfberries) to almost everything i eat
i also add lots of seaweed, mushrooms, and bittergreens to alot of my food
alot of the herbs used in thai, lao and southern chinese foods have medicinal properties
even the common artichoke has a very cleansing effect on our livers

I'll have to look for the berry section in my local grocerie store... not chinese but they have a large variety of berries last time I looked.

Good to know! Thank you

lol the chinese wolfberries aka goji berries are sold usually dried
but you can now get a liquid elixir

and remember kiwis are actually berries too
chinese gooseberries
lol

a mindset is to include foods from every colour group in your diet esp dark greens and reds and blues
higher in beta carotenes and antioxidants

bro, you should ask your trainer.....he knows your body, your goals and how you train. he put it in there for a reason right?

My morning shake,
1 cup blueberries
1 cup strawberries
1/3 cup oatbran cereal
1 cup broccoli
2/3 cup milk isolate powder

I've been advocating more consumption of fruit than conventional bodybuilding wisdom dictates for years.

Some of my trainers have included the following in my competition diets : strawberries, kiwi or grapefruit. Pineapple is also a staple of my post competition detox diets.

As Vel said, ENZYMES!

Plus it's an alkaline forming food, to go with your acid forming ones.

Pineapple is also a natural anti-inflammatory.........I ate a lot of it post-surgery.....
