How Banana Nutrition Can Change Your Lifestyle

By Jessie Atkinson


If it's been a while since you've had a banana then it's time to go out and get one. Eating bananas is one of the best things that you can do for your body. This awesome fruit is loaded with vitamins and minerals which will re-energize you in the short run and keep you healthy in the long run.

One banana has about 105 calories, give or take a couple, and around three of those calories are from fat. They also have 1 gram of protein, three grams of fiber and about fourteen grams of sugar. And how about this, no cholesterol or sodium.

Even though they taste great, you have to limit yourself as far as how many bananas you can eat in one day. The fat and sugar can catch up to you. One banana a day is good to start off with, from there you can see how things go. And keep in mind, your body burns fat as it processes the banana.

In addition, bananas also contain vitamins A, B6, C, Manganese, Potassium and Magnesium, just to name a few. Just one banana is enough to help regulate blood pressure and put a stop to muscle cramps.

Banana nutrition help to prevent heart diseases and also strengthen your bones. Bananas are an anti-obesity food, since they reduce swelling thanks to B6 and create a whole army of white blood cells for your superior immunity.

One of the greatest things I noticed about bananas is the energy I get from them. They give a nice even burst of stable energy that tapers off gradually, not like those energy drinks or junk foods. Plus they make you feel full, so you end up eating less. And the fiber that they have helps your digestion.

There are health experts that say that bananas are way better than any energy drink out there on the market. Next time your around one of those energy drinks take a look at what's inside, can you even pronounce some of the ingredients? Bananas give the body everything that the body needs to go the distance, without the caffeine. The energy boost you get from one banana is of a better quality, because it's natural.

If you find it difficult to eat bananas or if your having a hard time digesting them, then not to worry. There are other ways of eating bananas.

One option would be to add it to your cereal, or have you ever heard of a banana sandwich? How about a smoothie, grab the blender and you can add whatever you like to it. Throw in some ice and some other fruits and there you go, there's no need to add any sugar because bananas are naturally sweet.

They can also be added to fruit bowls or served as sides. So if you need a quick boost of energy and you want something that tastes great and is full of the good stuff, why not have a banana, at least give it a try. Have a banana, they're cheap and they taste great too.
