Bananas are treasures from skin to flesh

Did you know? Banana is called the "fruit of wisdom". It is the most easily available fruit on the market. It not only provides the human body with rich nutrition and multiple vitamins, but also makes the skin soft and shiny, the eyes bright, the energy abundant, and prolongs life!

1. Prevent and treat gastrointestinal ulcers

Patients with gastrointestinal ulcers often take phenylbutazone, which often leads to gastric ulcer bleeding. If you eat bananas after taking phenylbutazone, you can completely protect your stomach from ulcers, because bananas contain a chemical substance that can prevent gastric ulcers. It can stimulate the growth and reproduction of gastric mucosal cells and produce more mucosa to protect the stomach.

2. Treat high blood pressure

Patients with hypertension and cardiovascular diseases often have more sodium and less potassium in their bodies, and bananas are rich in potassium ions. Potassium ions inhibit sodium ions from constricting blood vessels and damaging the cardiovascular system. Eating bananas can maintain the potassium-sodium balance and acid-base balance in the body, keep the nerves and muscles normal and the myocardial contraction coordinated. Therefore, eating 3-5 bananas a day is beneficial rather than harmful to patients with hypertension and cardiovascular diseases.

3. Treat depression

It has been recently discovered that bananas contain a substance that can help the human brain produce serotonin, making people feel happy, relaxed, lively and cheerful. Therefore, patients with depression should eat more bananas in moderation to reduce the hormones that cause depression and gradually dissipate pessimism, disappointment, world-weariness and irritability.

Using it for several days will be effective.

5. Treat hemorrhoids and blood in stool

Eat 2 bananas on an empty stomach every day, or stew them without peeling them and eat them with the skin.

Therefore, they are less likely to accumulate energy. From this perspective, bananas seem to be an excellent food for weight loss.
