Health Benefits of Bananas

Bananas are among the world’s most popular fruits. Bananas are extremely healthy and delicious. They contain several essential nutrients and provide benefits for digestion, heart health and weight loss. Aside from being very nutritious, they are also a highly convenient snack food. Here are some health benefits of bananas.

Contain Many Important Nutrients

Bananas contain a fair amount of fibre, as well as several antioxidants. Each banana has only about 105 calories and consists almost exclusively of water and carbs. Bananas hold very little protein and almost no fat.

Moderate Blood Sugar Levels

Bananas are rich in pectin, a type of fibre that gives the flesh its spongy structural form. Unripe bananas contain resistant starch, which acts like soluble fibre and escapes digestion. Both pectin and resistant starch may moderate blood sugar levels after meals and reduce appetite by slowing the emptying of your stomach.

Aid Weight Loss

Bananas have relatively few calories. An average banana has just over 100 calories — yet it is also very nutritious and filling. Eating more fibre from vegetables and fruits like bananas has repeatedly been linked to lower body weight and weight loss.

Support Heart Health

Potassium is a mineral that is essential for heart health — especially blood pressure control. Despite its importance, few people get enough potassium in their diet. Bananas are a great dietary source of potassium.

Have Benefits for Exercise

Bananas are often referred to as the perfect food for athletes largely due to their mineral content and easily digested carbs. Eating bananas may help reduce exercise-related muscle cramps and soreness.

 5  Surprising Health Benefits of Vanilla

Vanilla is not just a ‘feel good’ scent though.  Its incredible capacity to expedite healing, improve acne and promote hair growth means that it is a great multi-tasking tool to have in your natural health armoury.

Good for your heart

Vanilla can reduce cholesterol levels. This is very important for those who are at high risk of heart attacks and strokes, with lower cholesterol helping to prevent inflammation of the arteries and blood clots.

Anti-ageing Benefit

Vanilla is rich in antioxidants which prevent, and reverse skin damage caused by free radicals. It helps to slow down signs of ageing like fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots.

Healing properties

vanilla is rich in antioxidants, which can help prevent the breakdown of cells and tissues in the body and stimulate the body’s natural regrowth. Due to its antibacterial nature, it also serves to boost your immune system and lower stress on the body, making it much easier to recover from injury or illness.

Help with anxiety

The strong aroma of vanilla is known to have a direct impact on the nerves that induce calm and relieve stress.

Aid weight loss

Vanilla can support your weight loss goals due to its natural appetite-suppressing qualities and because the extract of this plant can also help lower cholesterol, it can assist your body and metabolism to run more efficiently.
