The immune system is benefited greatly with this juicer recipe because it is a great source of all three vitamins that are essential to the immune system – vitamins A, C and E. Mango is a great source of vitamins A and C. Pineapple is an extra great source of vitamin C and kiwi fruit are an excellent source of vitamins A, C and E. So we can see that juicing these fruits together is a great immune system boost! Vitamins A and C are needed to synthesize the majority of the antibodies that protect us against bacterial and viral infections and vitamin E regenerates vitamin A and C when they ‘fall in battle’ so that they can fight again.
This tropical power juicer recipe can also help protect us from heart disease if we drink it on a regular basis. Not just great for the immune system, vitamin A and C are antioxidants that help keep our arteries and hearts healthy. As an antioxidant, vitamin C is especially effective at defending LDL cholesterol in our blood stream from oxidative damage. This defensive action is very important because oxidized LDL cholesterol will stick to the wall of the large arteries that lead to the heart and develop into a plaque that hardens and narrows them; this condition is called atherosclerosis and is the number one cause of heart disease!
Studies also show how important vitamin A is for the heart too. Large prospective studies show that people whose diets are highest in vitamin A are considerably less likely to develop heart disease (and cancer for that matter) or die from heart attacks and stroke than those with the least amount of vitamin A in their diet.
Pineapple juicer recipes are a great aid for the digestion. Pineapple contains a digestive enzyme called bromelain that is is very effective at breaking down proteins into amino acids. So effective in fact, that bromelain is extracted from pineapple so that it can be used in meat tenderizing products and sold as a digestive enzyme supplement. Some people drinking several glasses of pineapple juice per day to help them with digestive issues.
