bananas

Checked my mails and I read a mail which said that bananas are damn good for health. I LOVE BANANAS! ok that sounds pervy but bananas are probably the nicest fruits on earth. Easy and convenient too(:
Bananas contain 3 natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose, combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.
Research has proven that just 2 bananas provide enough energy for a strenous 90 mins workout. No wonder the banana is the number 1 fruit with the world's leading athletes.
Perhaps I should eat a banana before a match since chocolates are expensive. D: Oh, I probably need more than 1 since we have to run like mad women. o.o
Depression
Many people suffering from depression felt much better after eating a banana. They felt relaxed and their mood was improved. Generally, they felt much happier.
HUH? This seriously is replacing chocolates.
PMS
The vitamin B6 it contains regulated blood glucose levels, which can affect the mood.
THIS IS GREAT NEWS OK. :D not that I have PMS or whatever but you know, this can probably prevent mood swings which may hurt others unconsciously. o.o
Blood Pressure
The banana has the ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.
Heck this. At the rate I'm eating my food, it's a matter of time I get a stroke or die or something anyway. D:
Brain Power
200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break and lunch in a id to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.
I wonder why they didn't visit the loo a lot of times at the rate they're consuming bananas. -.- Bananas make one smarter smarter smarter! HEH.
Constipation
High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.
HEH. Bowel movement. MOVE IT!
Hangovers
One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms he stomach, and with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates the system.
ok. good for me in the future I suppose. I love milkshakes. They're just so nice.
Morning sickness
Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.
oO.
Enough procrastinating. I think I shall go back to doing my IDMI stuff. The library is getting noisier and noisier. roar. Shall shut myself up with music.
