3. They promote happiness 

How do you place bananas on a table? To look like smiles or frowns?

Bananas contain vitamin B9, also known as folate, a nutrient that combats depression and anxiety. In fact, a medium-sized banana contains approximately 6 percent of your daily value of folate. In a nutshell, bananas boost your serotonin levels, making you happier.

4. They make you sleepy

Are you struggling to fall asleep? Eat a banana before bedtime! It will most definitely relax you in order to fall asleep faster. This occurs mainly due to the amino acid L-tryptophan that promotes relaxation while regulating sleep.

However, do not exaggerate with banana intake. Most doctors recommend no more than 2 medium-sized bananas per day.

  1. I always knew that bananas were special and arrived in their own unique packaging, but never knew that they were such a superfood. Thanks for the info.

  2. Thanks for all your information about eating bananas. Personally, I consume bananas on a regular basis and at 92 years old, my health is in good shape. I also eat banana and peanut butter sandwiches,
    which are really good. I visited a banana plantation in the Caribbean and it was really interesting to see how they are harvested and made ready for shipment.

  3. Green ones have advantages that yellow ones do not. Green ones ripen into yellow ones. Would eating yellowish-green ones give the best from each type?

  4. I do eat bananas!
    Did not realize all the benefits that they provide the body.
    Very useful information in regard to the health benefits of bananas.
    I shall increase to one per day rather than just a couple per week.
    Thank you
