And here in this blog I will be discussing about the benefits of bananas in detail. So take a glass of banana shake, and get ready to dive into an ocean of information about bananas.
NO 1 Highly Nutritious
Along with their delicious taste, they are one of the most highly nutritious and healthy fruits present in this world. A single medium sized banana contains roughly 112 calories which is almost half of an ice cream cone, and has 0 gm Fat, 29 gm Carbs, 1 gm Protein, 3 gm Fibre, Vitamin C, Folate, Copper, Potassium, Magnesium, Niacin and Riboflavin. Bananas contains mostly water and carbs, along with small amount of protein, no fat, and decent amounts of fibre and many antioxidants. And the carbs present in unripe bananas are mainly in form of starch which is a type of indigestible fibre. As the fruit gradually ripens, it’s taste gets sweeter, but it’s fibre content goes down.
NO 2 Improves Digestion
The dietary fibre present in bananas is linked to various health benefits, and one such benefit is the improved digestion. A type of fibre found in unripe bananas, Resistant Starch, which is a prebiotic that escapes the digestion and directly goes into the large intestine, where it then becomes food for the beneficial bacteria. Furthermore, pectin, a fibre that is found in both unripe and ripe bananas prevents constipation and also softens the stools, making the bowel movement much cleaner.
NO 3 Improves Heart Health
Potassium is one of the most important mineral for maintaining a healthy heart. And potassium also manages the blood pressure. But despite it’s importance, many people don’t get enough amounts of it in their routine diet. But bananas solves this problem by giving you enough potassium, which can help you to lower down the blood pressure and to maintain a fit heart. According to a few researches, people who consume enough amount of potassium have upto a 27% lower risk of any heart disease.
That’s it!
