Are bananas good for you?

Are bananas good for you?

Bananas are an excellent source of potassium and supply vitamin B6, fibre and carbohydrate, and some vitamin C. Since they have a lower water content than most fruit, bananas typically have more calories as well as a higher sugar content compared to other non-tropical fruits. Also, its glycemic index is on the borderline of low range. Hence, they can be taken in moderation.
