Reasons to eat banana. BUT why we do not plant banana to support our food industries. I remember during Japanese time we were forced to plant banana and banana can be our food. We need to repeat this. Every house in Felda must have three types of banana trees for raw eating, cooking and pisang goreng (tempura)

 

1.     Bananas come prepackaged in their own wrapping (the banana skin to be precise) which means they are easily transportable.

2.     High in potassium they help to prevent against high blood pressure and reduce stress.

3.     Constipated? Well, bananas are high in fiber and will help to keep you regular.

4.     Bananas have been known to help reduce heartburn due to the natural antacid properties.

5.     Bananas contain tryptophan a protein the body converts into serotonin. The more serotonin in the your brain the more your mood improves.

6.     Bananas are high in Vitamin B.

7.     They help reduce water retention (always a good then when cutting weight or trying fix in that little black dress).

8.     An average sized banana is less than 100 calories.
