Depression: Eating a banana will make you feel better
because they 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.
PMS: Forget the pills- eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it
contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect
your mood.
Anemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production
of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of
anemia.
Blood Pressure: The banana is high in potassium yet low
in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much
so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed
the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit’s
ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.
Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the
diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome
the problem without resorting to laxitives.
Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover
is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The
banana calms the stomach, and with the help of honey,
builds up depleted blood sugar level, while the milk soothes
and re-hydrates your system.
Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the
body.
Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals
helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.
Mosquito Bites: Try rubbing the affected area with the
inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful
at reducing swelling and irritation.
Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal
disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness.
It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress
in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity
and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.
Smoking and Tobacco Use: Bananas can also help people
trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as
well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help
the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.
