Have you ever ogled at a pineapple? It’s as tasty as it is bizarre looking. You may be surprised to learn that pineapples are native to South America. Today, however, they are mostly grown in Thailand, the Philippines, and other Southeast Asian countries. While you may be tempted to peel and toss the spiky skin, we’re here to tell you not to.
That skin contains some fantastic health benefits. We’ve listed our 8 favorites below. To get the most out of pineapple peels, brew a tea. Wash the peels and then boil the pineapple peel with its pulp. Allow the tea to cool before diluting it with 1-liter water. Strain and enjoy!
