Scientifically called Ananas Comosus:Bromeliaceae, which can be roughly translated to \u201ctufted, excellent fruit\u201d, pineapple got its English name from its resemblance to a pinecone.<\/p><p>Pineapple has been a part of traditional medicine for centuries, obviously for its abundance of nutrients and antioxidants. Pineapple contains a considerable amount of dietary fibre and is an abundant source of Vitamin C, the reason why when ships set sail for long journeys, stack pineapples. Pineapple is nevertheless abundant in calcium and potassium as well. Additionally it is low in fat and cholesterol. It is also a good source of vitamin B1, vitamin B6 and copper. Pineapple can act as a digestive aid and has a natural anti-inflammatory property. Pineapples are primarily consumed as fresh fruit and\/or in dried and canned form and\/or often as juice.<\/p><p>This cylindrical-shaped, compound fruit develops from the fusing of many small fruits into one.\u00a0 The stem serves as the fibrous core to this juicy and fleshy fruit. The flesh colours from nearly white to yellow. A pineapple fruit can grow 30 cm long and can weigh anywhere around 0.5 to 4.5 kg or even more rarely. The waxy, hard rind may be dark green, yellow, orange-yellow or even reddish when the fruit is ripe.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0ce7521 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0ce7521\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4d79865\" data-id=\"4d79865\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f9c70bb elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f9c70bb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Varieties found in Kerala<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ef87171 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ef87171\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2f33c23\" data-id=\"2f33c23\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ef03a3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6ef03a3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4>Vazhakulam pineapple (Kannara)<\/h4><p>Kerala, God\u2019s Own country, has its own local flavoured, GI tagged pineapple, known as the Vazhakulam pineapple.
