Benefits of bananas

Bananas are high in potassium, vitamin C, B6, fibre and magnesium. Magnesium helps to maintain the nerve, muscle and heart functions, while potassium can help reduce the risk of heart disease, other heart problems and some cancers.

Bananas are a great energy and immune booster. They can have an antacid effect, and assist in strengthening the stomach lining to protect it from acids, and also helps to release energy from your food. Bananas can also help to lower cholesterol, regulate blood sugar levels and assist in maintaining bowel health.
