Incorporating pineapple into a balanced diet, along with other nutrient-dense foods, may support weight management.
Does Timing Matter?
Eating pineapple in the morning or night can have different impacts depending on your health goals and needs.
Recent studies have explored how the nutritional content of pineapple can influence sleep quality.
Therefore, consuming pineapple at night may support both better sleep and more effective weight management.
Protein-rich snacks can reduce hunger and prevent overeating, which can be beneficial for weight management.
By integrating pineapple into meals, you could enjoy its benefits while maintaining a balanced diet.
