A banana a day keeps the doctors away

 

Banana

Its a powerhouse of nutrients, a rich source of cardio-protective potassium, magnesium and niacin. They enhance the body’s ability to absorb calcium and also increase brain chemicals that counter depression owing to tryptophan content. It contains carbohydrate, sugar and fiber, which makes it the most easily digestible fruit .Earlier, the saying, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” now aptly applies to banana (owing to high cost of apples which makes it difficult for common people’s reach) i.e. “A banana a day keeps the doctors away”…….

So, go for bananas, and include them in your daily diet.
