Thereishel: 4. is not true, banana has insignificant amount of
Calcium, it does not help in building bones
5. Banana contains a high quantities of sugar,
therefore it does not regulate blood sugar but
increase it.
6. is false because it cause belly fat and risk of
type 2 diabetes
8. Is scientifically wrong being a candidate for
diabetes 2, increases the chances of stroke and
heart attack. Even when you eat it too much
instead of it increasing your K, it decreases it in
your body and I am telling you what happened to
me personally. I always hv 2.9-3-0 in my body
system but the standard range is between 3.5-5.0

You are a stark ILLITERATE! Imagine you saying banana contains sugar! shocked Did you even go to school at all? Even if you did, your school fees is a total waste! Let me educate you...All sweet fruits contain natural sugars known as fructose which is a natural sugar that has 0% negative health effects unlike the conventional factory processed sugar. This is because fructose has a antioxidant
called phenol plus other fibres which is absent from added sugar! Added sugar lacks the multiple health promoting qualities of fruits provided by phenols, fiber, vitamins, and minerals.

So please educate yourself very well before you come here to preach to us about banana increasing your diabetes (blood sugar) level. Unless it's Mr Biggs Ice-cream or any factory processed fruit juice like chivita that has banana flavour is what you take and that is different from natural banana.
