I've gone Bananas!!!


I have been reading about how good bananas are for you, most of us just think of potassium when we think of bananas but they are so good in many other ways.....because bananas have 3 natural sugars, sucrose, fructose and glucose they give a natural boost of energy.

Bananas contain tryptophan which is a natural mood booster, it is an a type of protein that converts to Serotonin, which is known to make you relax.

Bananas are high in Iron.

Bananas boost brain power.

Bananas help cure hangovers, I know none of my readers need this tip, but I'm giving it to you,
just in case........... Make a banana milkshake with honey, the banana calms the stomach, honey builds up depleted blood sugar levels, the milk soothes and rehydrates your system.

Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so they are good for heartburn.

Bananas can help you avoid morning sickness. ( I can think of another way to avoid morning sickness!)

If you get a mosquito bite, rub the affected area with the inside of a banana skin.
Bananas are high in Vitamin B which calms the nervous system.

Bananas can help people trying to give up smoking, (Yeah, just try lighting one!)

According to some research, eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by 40%

BUT! IF YOU ARE ALLERGIC TO LATEX, YOU MAY WANT TO AVOID BANANAS,
THEY CONTAIN SOME OF THE SAME PROTEINS THAT CAUSE THE ALLERY TO LATEX, ALSO, AVOCADOS,CHESTNUTS,KIWIS,PASSION FRUIT, PLUMS, STRAWBERRIES AND TOMATOES. IF YOU HAVE AN ALLERGIC REACTION TO LATEX, ASK YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT THESE FOODS AND OTHERS.
