Read about all the ways a banana can help you!  Really interesting!

 

 Depression: Eating a banana will make you feel better because they contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

 

PMS: Forget the pills- eat a banana.  The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

 

Anemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

 

Blood Pressure: The banana is high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure.  So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit’s ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Constipation:  High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxitives.

 

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey.  The banana calms the stomach, and with the help of honey, builds up depleted blood sugar level, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

 

Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body.

 

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

 

Mosquito Bites: Try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin.  Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation. 

 

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders  because of its soft texture and smoothness.  It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases.  It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

 

Smoking and Tobacco Use:  Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking.  The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

 

Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body’s water balance.  When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels.  These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.

 

Warts: Take off a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out.  Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape.

 

Brain Power: Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

 

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills.  When you compare it to an apple, it has 4 times the protein, twice the carbs, 3 times the phosphorus, 5 times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals.  It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around.  So, maybe it’s time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, “A banana a day keeps the doctor away!”
