Health Tips

Carbohydrates
A serving of dehydrated pineapple contains around 25 grams of carbohydrates. This does not fit extreme low-carb diets limited to around 20 grams but works fine with an average intake of 225 grams. Carbohydrates are necessary for maintaining blood-sugar levels and supplying your muscles with energy. Sweetened, dried pineapple contains an extra 10 grams of carbohydrates on average.
Protein, Fat and Cholesterol
Each serving of unsweetened dried pineapple contains no protein, fat, saturated fat or cholesterol. While protein is necessary for tissue repair, a diet high in fat and cholesterol puts you at risk of heart disease, some types of cancer and many other health concerns. Healthy limits are 44 grams of fat, 16 grams of saturated fat and 300 milligrams of cholesterol. For optimum health, average women should consume about 46 grams of protein and men 56 grams daily. If you need to boost your protein for the day, toss in a handful of unsalted peanuts, cashews or hulled sunflower seeds to add around 10 grams.
Vitamins and Minerals
With every helping of dehydrated pineapple, you consume 32 milligrams of calcium, 30 milligrams of magnesium, 20 milligrams of phosphorus, 270 milligrams of potassium, 119 milligrams of vitamin C, 45 milligrams of folate, 144 international units of vitamin A and 6 micromilligrams of vitamin K. Each serving contains trace amounts of sodium, iron, zinc, thiamin, vitamin E, vitamin B-6, riboflavin and niacin.
