One Banana a Day! Did you know that fully ripe bananas with dark patches on their yellow skin produce a substance called TNF (Tumor Necrosis Factor), which helps fight abnormal cells? The more dark patches, the stronger its immunity-boosting properties. Simply put, the riper the banana, the better its anti-cancer benefits. In fact, a yellow banana with dark spots is up to 8 times more effective at enhancing white blood cell function compared to green bananas.
Additionally, a recent survey of 200 students in a London school revealed that including bananas in their breakfast, break, and lunch improved mental alertness and boosted “brain power.” Potassium in bananas plays a key role in supporting normal brain function. Start your day with a banana to enjoy these incredible health benefits!
