Bananas are abundant in Brazil and easily accessible to every Brazilian. There is even an interesting idiom used to express that something is very inexpensive - when a Brazillian buys something "dirt cheap", he says he buys it "a preço de banana". This popular fruit should be included in your daily diet, and for more reasons than you could imagine.
Bananas must be one of the most popular fruits in the world, but some people say they are not good for you. That can't be true. Scientifically, that is not true. In fact, bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber and they give you an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. But energy isn't the only way a banana can help overcome or prevent a great number of illnesses, making it a must to add to our daily diet.
Anaemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of haemoglobin in the blood and so they help in cases of anaemia.
Blood pressure: Bananas are extremely high in potassium but low in salt, so they can reduce the risk of blood pressure problems.
Brain power: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlessex, United Kingdom) school were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, ans lunch in a bid to voost their brain power. Research shows that bananas can assist learning making students become more interested and alert.
Constipation: If you suffer from constipation you should drink lots of water and included bananas in your diet, because they are high in fiber. Eating a banana every day can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.
Depression: Bananas 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.
Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.
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, reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.
Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin.
A banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare a banana to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five 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. Maybe we should change that well-known phrase so that we say, "A banana a day keeps the doctor away!"
P.S. Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time!
