What is the use of bananas for the body?

Now it is difficult to believe that some 20-30 years ago for the inhabitants of our country bananas were a very scarce treat. Today, a bunch of bananas can be found on every counter selling fruit. And they are even cheaper than apples, so that bananas can be safely called our national fruit, although their homeland is the islands of the Malay Archipelago and India.

Doctors have long noticed that the benefits of bananas are that they can be eaten by adults and children, and cases of allergy to this fruit are so rare that they can be compared with the body's non-perception of ordinary water.

For the inhabitants of the tropics, the benefits of bananas are primarily that this fruit is unpretentious, a poor harvest for bananas does not happen, they do not even need to be grown. Just come, and collect from the trunk of delicious bunches, and then send them to those countries, the climate of which does not allow to grow such wonderful fruits. So the benefits of bananas for the economy of small tropical countries are so great that with the light hand of the writer O'Henry they even got the title of "banana republics".

But not only low cost bananas are useful. In the flesh of fruit, in addition to vitamins, fiber, pectins, proteins, sucrose and a lot of potassium are also contained. The use of bananas in food can increase efficiency, satisfy the feeling of hunger, and recharge your batteries for at least a few hours.

But for those who want to lose weight, the benefits of bananas are very doubtful. Suffice it to mention that these fruits necessarily enter the diet of sumo wrestlers, and the calorie content of bananas ranges from 90 to 120, and sometimes up to 140 kilocalories. And this data refers only to fresh bananas. In dried fruits, not to mention banana chips, calorie content is even higher.

But not everything is so sad, and wishing at all costs to reduce the size of the waist and hips does not need to deny yourself the pleasure of eating a banana. In fact, even if you are not on a diet, it will be very useful to eat one or two bananas half an hour before a meal. Nutritious fruit will not only give pleasure to its taste, but it also reduces appetite, so that during meals you will consume far less food than usual.

For those who are a fan of a variety of diets, the benefits of bananas will be that together with them, the body will inevitably get almost all the necessary vitamins and microelements.

Thanks to the increased potassium content, the banana diet fits the cores, since potassium has a beneficial effect on the tone of the heart muscle, but to people suffering from thrombophlebitis, eating these fruits is contraindicated, since they contribute to the thickening of the blood. Also bananas help with gastritis, but only with low acidity. They envelop the walls of the stomach, and prevent their irritation.

By the way, those who have not yet found the strength to quit smoking, it will also be useful to use bananas without fail, since they contribute to the withdrawal of nicotine from the body.
