* You don’t need to eat bananas for the potassium! (Although it is present in bananas, potassium is the predominant nutrient among most all fruits and vegetables.)
* Bananas are high in sugar, so they should not be eaten if you have blood sugar problems.
* Don’t eat bananas on an empty stomach; combining them with a bit of protein will help to normalize the insulin response caused by the sugar in the banana.
* Green-tipped bananas are better for your health than over-ripe bananas.
* On a side note: Because bananas are so popular, rainforests are often destroyed to make way for banana plantations.
