Can you juice pineapple stems?
Just wondering. I mean I'm sure you can, but does it taste foul? Are there any nutrients in the stem?
And what about the core? Can that be juiced too?

Dear Charles,
The ultimate juicing experience involves juicing an 'organic' pineapple in its entirety...skin, core, & flesh. The core contains a concentration of bromelain. The skin adds more pineapple essence (taste) & creamy froth to the mix.
Peace,
Pineapple Head

Alright, I'll try it next time. I have a Super Angel 3500 so it can handle it.

Yeah I would be worried about hurting the juicer but if you have a really good one that's great. Hydraulic press ones also seem like they would be great but really they wouldn't get much out of skin. Bromelain is so important in anti-inflammatory additions to the diet so it is nice to get as much out as possible. The fact tha they are so high in sugar is a concern though for people who are trying to heal from autoimmune related diseases. In that case a supplement of bromelain would be optimal.

Dear Charles,
just to be 100% clear...if by stems, you mean, the crown or head; i have other than ever heard of anyone juicing this part of the pineapple. Of course, this part can be planted for growing more pineapples.
Peace,
Pineapple Head

David Jubb says that aloe skin has many more nutrients than the inner fillet. He says it has tons of vitamin c. I guess pineapple stems are quite nutritious as well.

I think the stems are the healthiet part. Big time cancer fighter.
Put stem in blender with water and pineaplle slices, or the stem with water or the stem with another smoothie
i'm lookin in my qigong food book, unfortunately the pictures and instructions don't make perfect sense to me, so good luck
point is, the stem is way importante, senior gusto.

I am not handy enough.
I would encourage you to eat oranges instead Vampi. Whole food is always best. Oranges are a perfect food; lots of sugar, and lots of fiber to slow down the absorption into the blood stream. Take out all the fiber and you've got a blood sugar spik...
thanks LL...
ohhh Vamps,you are cute
what "groundbreaking discoveries" have been made in recent years, just asking ;)
I only use them if necessary, like if Im ordering at a restaurant, or if someone asks me about my diet.
yes people seems to have this tendency, I do too...
since I find no reason to believe in 'allergies' against 'natural' appropriate stuff, I would think it's more likely just the fact that pineapple if bought in store is pretty much always unripe. Not that it matters to the situation perhaps.
...but...
I write poems (mostly in Seussian rhyme), articles on health, and am working on a couple of books on health...
Nicolas have you ever had a pineapple that does not give symptoms. In my experience around these hoods where we are there are practically no ripe pineapples..or perhaps a few dunno
Yes ma'am. Resting as completely as possible with eyes closed; getting enough water; avoiding too much sun; avoiding toxic substances (personal care products, cleaning products, etc.)
I enjoy writing about the deepest darkest secrets of my heart, about things I dont want to share with anyone..or lack the guts to share. Love letters mostly, but not always. If I have a dream I want to remember Ill write it down.
I'm assuming "fasting properly" means RESTING while fasting?
Come on woman! No time like the present! We may now have one more spot for our March 20 to May 22 internship session; this is truly a life-changing program and an amazing bargain...
Thanks Priyam! You are very kind and generous with your appreciation, and I appreciate the specificity. I agree with you completely that fasting is generally very poorly understood, mostly feared, and almost always avoided.
Though someone once su...
GASP! I would never accuse you of such. Take that back right now.
