RIPE BANANA KILLS TUMORS???

Q. I noticed in a previous post you recommended eating bananas to help a guy’s hangover. I was told that a banana was one of the worst fruits to eat for nutrition. Any thoughts?

A. The buzz on bananas seems to be dependent on which way the wind blows. In other words…whoever is paying for the research seems to get the facts bent in their favor. The carbohydrates are a bit high and the fiber is a bit low, but over all, the occasional banana is still a much better snack choice than any candy bar. One of the consistencies of all banana research is its unusually high (naturally occurring) levels of potassium. This high potassium content was my source for the guy with the hang over. See AMV Facebook post dated Feb. 11th.

Some recent research is showing that spotted bananas (the ones we throw out) may have a tumor inhibiting factor. Obviously more research needs to be done to substantiate this claim. Nonetheless, I don’t known about you but I am sure going to look at spotted bananas in a whole different light.
