Bananas are one of the most popular fruits worldwide. A wide variety of health benefits are associated with the curvy yellow fruit. Bananas are high in potassium and pectin, a form of fiber. They can also be a good way to get magnesium and vitamins C and B6. Bananas are known to reduce swelling, protect against developing diabetes, aid in weight loss, strengthen the nervous system, and help with production of white blood cells, all due to the high level of vitamin B6 that bananas contain. Bananas are high in antioxidants, which can provide protection from free radicals, which we come into contact with every day, from the sunlight to the lotion you put on your skin.
Bananas are fairly rich in fiber and resistant starch, which may feed your friendly gut bacteria and safeguard against colon cancer. Bananas may aid weight loss because they’re low in calories and high in nutrients and fiber. Bananas are a good dietary source of potassium and magnesium — two nutrients that are essential for heart health. Depending on ripeness, bananas harbor high amounts of resistant starch or pectin.
Both may reduce appetite and help keep you full. Unripe bananas are a good source of resistant starch, which may improve insulin sensitivity. However, more research is needed. Eating a banana several times a week may reduce your risk of kidney disease by up to 50%. Bananas may help relieve muscle cramps caused by exercise. They also provide excellent fuel for endurance exercise. Bananas make an excellent snack food, dessert or breakfast. Their versatility makes them easy to add to your diet.
Ripe bananas are a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth. What’s more, both yellow and green bananas can keep you healthy and feeling full. Banana peels are usually served cooked, boiled or fried, though they can be eaten raw or put in a blender with other fruits. They are not as sweet as banana flesh. Riper peels will be sweeter than unripe ones.
Here are some tips for using bananas:
Banana Smoothie
Add a sliced banana to your morning cereal or oatmeal for a more nutritious breakfast.
Mashed Bananas
Add mashed bananas to muffins, cookies, and cakes for a naturally sweet flavor.
Work or School
Take a banana to work or school for a healthful, portable snack.
