Bananas are rich in potassium, which can lower blood pressure and protect the inner wall of arteries, and contain a large number of compounds such as angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, which have the effect of controlling blood pressure.
Banana contains a substance that can help the human brain to produce serotonin, which can make people feel happy and relieve pain and depression, so it is called "happy food".

Animal experiments suggest that bananas can enhance human immunity and shrink tumors, and the more mature bananas, the more black spots on the epidermis and the higher the immune activity.
New efficacy of banana diet therapy
In recent years, scientific research has found that bananas have a certain auxiliary treatment effect on common diseases such as cardiovascular system and digestive system.

Excessive serum cholesterol can cause coronary heart disease, but the fruit stalk of banana can lower cholesterol. If the serum cholesterol is too high, 50 grams of banana stalks can be used, washed and sliced, and taken with boiling water for 10-20 days to reduce cholesterol. Of course, the amount of banana stalks should not be too large, otherwise it will cause diarrhea.
Banana peel contains cannabinoids, which can inhibit fungi and bacteria. Banana peel is effective in treating skin itching and beriberi caused by fungi or bacteria. Patients can choose fresh banana peel and rub it repeatedly on itchy skin, or rinse it in water for a few days, which will have an effect.
Patients with gastrointestinal ulcer can eat some bananas to protect gastric mucosa and reduce the occurrence of gastric ulcer. Because banana contains a chemical that can prevent gastric ulcer, it can stimulate the growth and reproduction of gastric mucosal cells.
Banana contains a substance that can help the human brain to produce 5- hydroxytryptamine, making people feel happy and comfortable. Patients with depression, usually eat more bananas, can increase the concentration of 5- hydroxytryptamine in the brain, thus reducing the hormones that cause depression, so that pessimism, disappointment and irritability gradually disappear.
