Βanana is a fruit that is known for the energy it provides to our body. This energy comes from 3 natural sugars contained which are fructose, sucrose and glucose. If we eat 2 bananas, we will get enough energy for a difficult and highly demanding training. It is no coincidence that most athletes consume bananas systematically.

Apart from energy, bananas contain many nutrients that can help us maintain in a very good physical condition. Below I will mention a few diseases in which bananas will be useful to overcome some of our problems.

Anemia: Banana increases the production of hemoglobin in blood. It is considered an ideal food for people suffering from anemia because of its high iron content. So if you anemic, one banana per day is a very good solution for you.

Blood pressure:Banana helps to deal with blood pressure and prevent strokes. Τhis is due to its high content of potassium and low salt content.

PMS - Premenstrual Syndrome: Βanana contains large amounts of vitamin B6. This particular vitamin regulates blood glucose levels and can affect your mood. So instead of taking pills, you better eat a banana.

Constipation : Bananas can also help in the proper bowel function due to high fiber content,so instead of laxatives try to add some bananas to your diet.

Heartburn : If you suffer from heartburns, banana is a great option to get rid of them because it has a natural antacid effect on our body.

Depression : bananas contain a protein called triptophan. Our body has the ability to convert tryptophan to serotonin which is known from chocolate, that improves our mood and makes us feel happy. So next time you feel sad try to eat a banana.

Nerves: Ιf you are nervous try to eat a banana because it is rich in B vitamins which, as we know, help in the nervous system το calm down.

Quit smoking : Βananas can also help in the case of smoking cessation. Its potassium, magnesium, B6 and B12 vitamins help the body recover from the effects of abstinence from nicotine. So those trying to quit smoking you just found a new ally in this difficult effort!

Stress : When we get stressful , our cerebral rhythm is rising, which reduces the levels of potassium in our body. Potassium can assist in normalizing the heartbeat also sends oxygen to the brain and regulates the water balance. So when you feel stressful try to eat a banana, you may calm down. :)

As we have seen from above, banana is a very important food and must be included in our everyday diet. We must change the familiar phrase "one apple a day keeps the doctor way" because in comparison of banana with apple, banana contains more protein, twice the amount of carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals, triple the amount of phosphorus, five times more vitamin A and iron. so "One banana per day keeps the doctor away :)
