Banana powder

Our freeze dried organic sweet banana powder is wonderfully sweet and absolutely delicious making it a cinch to add to smoothies, desserts and other recipes. Best of all, is that it's great for you. Perhaps instead of eating an apple each day for optimum health, the adage should state that a banana and apple a day keeps the doctor away. The raw banana health benefits may outweigh those of the apple because it has many more vitamins and nutrients than their round counterparts. When compared to an apple, Banana has four times more protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. All of these factors combined make the banana a super food that is an integral part of a healthy daily regimen.

Raw organic bananas contain potassium, protein, fiber, carbohydrates and vitamins: A, B, B6, C and E; and minerals: calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc and folate (also known as vitamin B9 and natural folic acid). It also contains serotonin which may elevate the mood and help fight stress. Being rich in iron, the bananas may stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood, thus helping in cases of anemia. Because of its high potassium, but low salt content, it is indicated for those having problems with arterial pressure and may help the body's circulatory system deliver oxygen to the brain. This also helps maintain a regular heartbeat and a proper balance of water in the body.
