Banana is one of my favorite fruit and has become Kitana’s favorite. I never knew there were so many positives about eating bananas. I buy bananas every week at home but never knew….
1. Helps with Morning Sickness
Eating a banana between meals helps stabilize blood sugar and reduce nausea from morning sickness.
2. Shines your shoes
Rub the inside of a banana peel on your leather shoes or handbag and polish with a dry cloth for a quick shine.
3. Helps Bug bites
Rub a bug bite or hives with the inside of the banana peel to relieve itching and irritation.
4. Makes you alert
Bananas make you smarter and help with learning by making you more alert. Eat a banana before an exam to benefit from the high levels of potassium.
5. Helps if you quitting Smoking
Bananas contain high levels of B-vitamins as well as potassium and magnesium to speed recovery from the effects of withdrawal.
6. Depression
Bananas help overcome depression due to high levels of tryptophan, which is converted into serotonin — the happy-mood brain neurotransmitter.
7. Cramps
Protect against muscle cramps during workouts and nighttime leg cramps by eating a banana.
8. Swelling
Bananas reduce swelling, protect against type II diabetes, aid weight loss, strengthen the nervous system, and help with the production of white blood cells, all due to high levels of vitamin B-6.
9. PMS
Improve your mood and reduce PMS symptoms by eating a banana, which regulates blood sugar and produces stress-relieving relaxation.
10. Protects against Heart attack and stroke
High in potassium and low in salt, bananas are officially recognized by the FDA as being able to lower blood pressure and protect against heart attack and stroke.
11. Helps with Constipation
High fiber in bananas can help normalize bowel motility.
12. Temperature
Eating a banana can lower the body temperature and cool you during a fever or on a hot day.
