why i love bananas

This morning I found a dark brown banana in my fruit bowl. So brown that you couldn’t really peel it anymore and take proper bites. You’d probably think it’s best to throw it out. DON’T DO IT! Grab a bowl, add a scoop of Greek yoghurt and add the soft, sweet, banana into it. Top it off with some chopped walnuts and you’ll have a wonderful (healthy!) breakfast. I sometimes purposely let my bananas go brown and then put them into the freezer to make ice cream out of it the following day. All you need is a mixer and cottage cheese. It’s that simple. The darker the banana, the sweeter it is. You won’t need to ad any sugar. Want to know more reasons why I’m pro bananas?

– Bananas give you an energy boost. The perfect snack for during a workout.

– They consist of so many fibers which is great for your metabolism.

– Bananas help you beat your hangover because they’re filled with magnesium which relaxes your blood vessels and it’ll get rid of your headache.

– Put a banana next to another piece of fruit and that fruit will be ripe in two days.

– They contain some type of ‘happiness dust’ called tryptophan. It makes you happy and gives you a satisfied feeling.
