Mari and Majo,

hadn't heard re: either one of these regarding sleep...

i do know pineapple helps with digestion due to its high content of the enzyme bromelain.

Bromelain also effective anti-inflammatory and natural decongestant but best if fresh, i don't know what happens when you can it or even flash-freeze. the problem is not the freezing or whatever, it's when it is defrosted ... dunno what those temp changes do to the poor enzyme.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromelain

but, we digress... nice find Mari. thank you. i love cherries. especially good, fresh ones. conversely i despise cherry flavoring. they haven't figured out how to find a simil-cherry flavored ester that doesn't also taste "mediciney" in my opinion.
