Banana or banana, which is better?

Doctor CKI Dinh Tran Ngoc Mai, Department of Nutrition - Dietetics, University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, answered: Bananas are known to be beneficial foods for the body, used a lot in daily life. Although they contain many nutrients that are beneficial for the body, the price of bananas in Vietnam is relatively cheap and easy to find anywhere.

Bananas are healthy foods, used a lot in daily life.

According to research, a 100g banana contains about 88 calories. However, 90% of the 88 calories in a banana are carbohydrates, and the carbohydrates in bananas are sugar, glucose, sucrose and fructose. The amount of sugar as well as the glycemic index of bananas depends on the level of ripeness. The riper the banana, the more sugar it contains.

Not only that, bananas also contain essential oils such as antioxidants, protein and low fat content - substances that are beneficial for the body.

The banana is called that because this banana variety has small, round, plump fruits that resemble the shape of an areca nut. Each fruit weighs about 80 grams and has 72 kcal.

Bananas are very nutritious, their characteristics are long and curved, larger than bananas. On average, a 20 cm fruit is about 120-140 gr and contains 120 kcal.

Therefore, depending on the daily fruit needs, the amount of carbohydrates needed, the disease and preferences to choose the type of banana as well as the appropriate amount of banana. For a normal person, weighing 55-60 kg, can eat 250-300 grams of fruit/day, equivalent to 4-5 bananas or 3 large bananas.
