Do you remember the cartoon about Bananaman, the young boy who turned into a super-hero after eating a banana? This is no coincidence at all, since this fruit is really powerful!
Bananas contain three types of sugars: fructose, sucrose and glucose, as well as fiber, and that is the combination which makes the feeling of satiety to last long.
Numerous studies have shown that only two bananas a day are enough for a 90-minute workout. However, energy is not the only good part of this wonderful fruit.
Depression:
Judging by the results of a recent survey conducted among people who suffer from some form of depression, banana can be used as a medicine. The protein tryptophan has the credit for this, since it creates serotonin, which is still known as the hormone of happiness and contentment. Therefore, next time when you are tormented by the PMS syndrome, forget the pain pills and opt for this fantastic fruit.
Anemia:
Given the fact that they are loaded with iron, bananas affect the formation of hemoglobin in the blood and so help in cases of anemia.
Blood pressure:
This citrus fruit is magnificent because it contains very little salt, but large amounts of potassium, which is important for the regulation of blood pressure. If you regularly eat bananas, you will reduce your chances of getting a stroke.
Brain:
Indeed, bananas have a positive impact on the brain, and one study showed that students who eat one banana in the morning, have better concentration throughout the whole day.
Constipation:
As a result of the fibers they contain, bananas help you to quickly overcome the problem with constipation without the use of laxatives.
Hangover:
You had a wild night? No worries, a high-speed banana milkshake will free you from the headache literally in a second. If you add a teaspoon of acacia honey, you will calm your stomach, and you will complement your needs of sugar.
Morning sickness:
The banana will help to reduce or even completely eliminate them, if you choose this fruit to be your snack.
Mosquito bites:
To reduce swelling after a bite of a mosquito or similar insect, rub the place of the sting with the inner bark of the banana and the itchiness will soon disappear.
Nerves:
Bananas are rich in vitamin B which helps to calm the entire nervous system. If you have a stressful job, decide this fruit to be your daily snack.
Hoses:
This magical fruit, because of its soft composition, is used as a dietary food against intestinal disorders.
Temperature regulation:
Pregnant women in Thailand regularly consume bananas as their babies would be born in a “cool enough” temperature.
They cure acne:
Rub the acne with the inside of the bark for around 10 minutes. Leave the remains of on the face as much longer as you can. It would be ideally if you wash before going to bed. Repeat this every day until you see the improvement.
White Teeth:
Rub your teeth with a banana peel for about two minutes at each wash. Manganese, magnesium and potassium affect the whiteness of teeth to a great extent.
Compared with apples, bananas contain four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron.
Perhaps now that you’ve read all this for bananas, you’ll perceive bananas with completely different eyes!
