People like to eat bananas. As a southern food, bananas are often sought after by people from all over the country. However, we cannot eat too many bananas because too many bananas may cause diarrhea, and bananas have a short shelf life. When buying bananas, we must pay attention to the freshness of the bananas to avoid being cheated. So, what are the benefits of eating bananas soaked in water? 1. Treat skin itching Banana peel contains banana peelin, which can inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi. Patients can select fresh banana peels and rub them repeatedly on itchy skin areas (tinea pedis, tinea manuum, tinea corporis, etc.), or mash them into a paste, or boil them in water and wash with them. Use it for several days and it will be effective. 2. Treat oral ulcers Banana peel is a very good Chinese medicine. The dried banana peel can be boiled with another Chinese medicine called: Huotanmu (also called Huotanmao), and then seasoned with appropriate amount of brown sugar. Drinking it can cure oral inflammation, ulcers, and has a laxative effect. 3. Anti-depression The peel of unripe bananas, whether chopped, boiled in water, or squeezed into juice, can fight depression. This is because the green banana peel contains high amounts of 5HP, which can be converted into serotonin after cooking. However, it is important to remind you that patients with kidney disease and diabetes should eat less. 4. Treat chapped skin on hands and feet After washing your hands and feet with hot water, rub the inside of a banana peel on your hands to prevent chapped skin. If there is already a crack, you can rub the banana peel directly on the crack. Generally, it can be cured after several uses. 5. Treat toothache caused by wind and fire Wash the banana peel, add rock sugar into the pot, add appropriate amount of water and simmer. Drink soup twice a day. 6. Treat hemorrhoids and blood in stool Roast two bananas with the skin on over the fire, and then eat them while they are hot. This can improve hemorrhoids and bloody stools. 7. Treat high blood pressure Take 30 to 60 grams of banana peel, boil it into a soup and drink it to treat high blood pressure. 8. Prevent stroke Take 30 grams of fresh banana peel and boil it into a soup and drink it instead of tea. It can dilate blood vessels and prevent stroke and angina pectoris. 9. Treat warts Apply banana peel on the surface of the wart (commonly known as warts) to soften it and let it fall off little by little until it heals. This method can cure warts on the head and face. Apply banana peels several times, pinch them off little by little with your fingers, and it will not recur after it is cured. 10. Anti-depression The peel of unripe bananas, whether chopped, boiled in water, or squeezed into juice, can fight depression. This is because the green banana peel contains high amounts of 5HP, which can be converted into serotonin after cooking. However, it is important to remind you that patients with kidney disease and diabetes should eat less. |
