Hạ Nguyễn (Theo Healthshots) |

Bananas are a favorite fruit of many people, not only do they provide health benefits but they also aid in your weight loss process.

1. Improve cardiovascular health

Bananas are rich in fiber, magnesium, potassium and have the effect of improving cardiovascular health. According to a study published by the Harvard School of Public Health (USA), eating bananas can help reduce stress on blood vessel walls, thereby helping to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. In addition, potassium in bananas also helps regulate heart rate, blood pressure and keep the brain alert.

2. Speed ​​up weight loss

Bananas are very low in calories, with a medium banana containing just over 90 calories and mostly fiber. This slows down digestion and keeps you full for longer.

3. Improve digestion

Bananas are high in water and fiber, which is great for your digestion. Soluble fiber absorbs water and softens stools, aiding your excretory system. Additionally, when you have diarrhea or vomiting, bananas can help replenish lost electrolytes.

4. Helps treat anemia

Bananas can help control anemia thanks to their high iron content. According to research published by the US National Institutes of Health, the high iron and vitamin B6 content in bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin (a protein responsible for transporting oxygen from the respiratory organs to other tissues of the body) and help regulate blood sugar levels.

5. Stabilize sleep

Bananas are rich in potassium, which helps your muscles relax. The vitamin C in bananas supports brain health by producing serotonin, a chemical that plays an important role in regulating memory, sleep, digestion, and mood.
