Another List of Banana Benefits

While I am on the topic of bananas, I have a list of other reported health benefits of eating bananas.
Even with these added to the six from yesterday's post, I would be surprised if that were all. I don't really think that we know all the benefits available from any food including the banana.

• Hang over cure - with milk and honey added
• Lower cholesterol
• Stress relief
• Improves nerve function
• Helps in recovery from nicotine withdrawal
• Morning sickness - keeps blood sugar levels stable
• Heartburn
• Helps in calcium absorption
• Protects eyesight
• Anemia - high in iron

Some of the known nutrients in bananas are as follows:

• Potassium - one of the highest food sources
• Fiber
• Calcium
• Magnesium
• Phosphorus
• Selenium
• Iron
• Vitamins B2 and B6
  
• Vitamins C and E
  
• Niacin
• Folate
• Pantothenic Acid

So there you have it. Not only are bananas good for us, they are a very handy package. Already naturally prewrapped, I call them the original fast food.

Enjoy some today and continue in good health,
