THIS Is What Happens To Your Body When You Eat Black-Spotted Bananas 2x Per Day For A Month


Bananas! Not only are these inexpensive fruits full of nutrients, they’re also delicious! It’s no wonder that they’re a favourite food for so many, including Elvis Presley and those adorable Minions. But because they’re so common and accessible, we often forget that bananas really are a super food. So while everyone else is rushing to the local specialty shop for the latest expensive food craze, maybe it’s time to give the humble banana another look. There’s a good chance that you already have some bananas sitting in your kitchen but what colour are they right now?
As bananas ripen, the yellow peel begins to turn brown and spotty. Eventually, it turns completely dark brown or even black, and we throw it away because we assume it’s rotten.
But according to reports, the more dark patches a banana has, the riper it is, and the more cancer-fighting anti-oxidants it contains. Incredible! In addition, here are some of the other amazing things bananas can do for your body:

  1. Blood Pressure
    The potassium and low amounts of sodium in bananas help to lower your blood pressure and protect you against strokes and heart attacks.
  2. Energy
    Bananas are calorie dense and are a great snack before your workout. The vitamins, minerals, and glycemic carbohydrates will give your body the energy that it needs, and the potassium will also help prevent muscle cramps.
  3. Heartburn
    Need an antacid? Why not use an all-natural delicious solution? That’s right, bananas can provide the soothing relief that you need when you experience heartburn.
  4. Depression
    Bananas can help you fight depression because of its tryptophan, which helps boost your serotonin levels.
  5. Constipation
    Bananas have plenty of fibre to help you with your bowel movements!
  6. Nerves/PMS
    Feeling irritable or stressed out? Bananas are rich in B vitamins, which can help you calm your nerves.

hi

i like to eat KARUPPUPULLI BANANA DAILY...very tasty and sweet too....sometimes cheaper than normal banana...
 
Of course they have very high Glycemic index.

Banana is a popular and tasty fruit which often is restricted in the diet prescribed for diabetic patients owing to the high content of free sugars. However, in under-ripe bananas starch constitutes 80-90% of the carbohydrate content, which as the banana ripens changes into free sugars. To study the effect of ripening on the postprandial blood glucose and insulin responses to banana, 10 type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic subjects consumed three meals, consisting of 120 g under-ripe banana, 120 g over-ripe banana or 40 g white bread on separate days. The mean postprandial blood glucose response area to white bread (181 +/- 45 mmol l-1 x 240 min) was significantly higher compared with under-ripe banana (62 +/- 17 mmol l-1 x 240 min: p < 0.01) and over-ripe banana (106 +/- 17 mmol l-1 x 240 min: p < 0.01). Glycaemic indices of the under-ripe and over-ripe bananas differed (43 +/- 10 and 74 +/- 9: p < 0.01). The mean insulin response areas to the three meals were similar: 6618 +/- 1398 pmol l-1 x 240 min (white bread), 7464 +/- 1800 pmol l-1 x 240 min (under-ripe banana) and 8292 +/- 2406 pmol l-1 x 240 min (over-ripe banana).http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1395467
 
Prasad Ji's post is right...over ripe bananas have a higher free sugar content...so its better not to consume over ripe bananas..I usually mash over ripe bananas and use it as sugar substitute to make payasam..so that way we do not consume the whole fruit cos we are surely going to share the payasam with others too.
 
As kids we had named the over ripe bananas as 'pAtti pazham' because we won't eat them and our pAtti loved to eat them. :)

Luckily she was NOT a diabetic. :cool:

BTW, we adding a mashed banana to neyyappam mix will render soft appams with nice aroma. Yummy!!
