HEALTH BENEFITS OF BANANAS
Bananas are an excellent source of nutrition and have been considered to be one of nature’s perfect foods.
Banana contains potassium and fiber and is also high in Vitamin B6, Vitamin C, and Vitamin B2.
Healthy blood pressure, as well as healthy heart functions, are derived from potassium.
Studies have shown that people who consume bananas and other foods high in potassium are less likely to develop atherosclerosis and high blood pressure.
