Nutritional Benefits
Bananas are rich in potassium, antioxidants, natural sugars
and fiber, all of which nourish and revitalize your body and balance your blood
sugar levels. Plus, bananas promote healthy digestion thus helping your body to
absorb nutrients efficiently. What’s good about this is that a well-nourished
body doesn’t crave junk foods, and it normally lets you know when you are full.
