Lower Blood Pressure

Studies show that the high amounts of potassium in bananas (over 13% of the RDA) can lower one’s blood pressure, which in turn lessens the possibility of atherosclerosis, heart attack and stroke. A great reason to eat fresh fruit every day.

Diet

A single banana has 11% of the RDA of dietary fibre and only about 108 calories. The fibre in bananas not only keeps digestion regular, but also helps maintain low blood sugar and curbs overeating, helping ward off cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, as well as obesity. Vitamin B6 in fresh fruit also plays a pivotal part in cell formation and maintaining nervous system function. B6 also contributes to the maintenance of the lymphoid glands that ensure the production of healthy white blood cells that protect the body from infection.

Cancer Prevention

A large study by the Internal Journal of Cancer illustrates that the probability of developing kidney cancer is greatly lessened by frequent consumption of fresh fruit and vegetables, especially bananas. Incredibly, the probability of developing kidney cancer in female subjects decreased by 50% when eating bananas four to six times a week.
