BANANAS

Happy Monday, !
🍌Here’s a little mind-blowing banana fact for you:
Banana trees aren’t really trees. They’re an herb and a distant relative of ginger!
And like most herbs … bananas have some pretty amazing benefits.
First, they’re packed with potassium, which most of us don’t get enough of. (Great for healthy blood pressure, kidney function, and heart health.)
They’re also linked with better blood sugar control.
If they aren’t too ripe, they also have a good amount of insoluble fiber and resistant starch – which is a good-for-your-gut prebiotic. The more ripe a banana is, the lower its fiber content.
😋TIP: If you have a sweet tooth, snack on bananas instead of junk foods with added sugars. Add them to plain Greek yogurt or give them a schmear of almond butter.
Are bananas a staple in your home?! ⬇️⬇️⬇️
