Other sweets in terms of energy supply (100g oranges for 43 calories, ripe papaya for 36 calories, longan for 49 calories, custard apple for 43 calories...) The amount of glucide in such a ripe banana is very high, in the form of glucose ( 20%), fructose (1.5%) and sucrose (65%) are precious natural sugars of ripe fruit, easy to digest, quickly absorbed by the body and provide a lot of energy. Through research, nutritionists have confirmed that ripe bananas are foods that are quickly digested by the body and provide a significant source of energy. Just eating a few ripe bananas, the body immediately provides hundreds of calories, so it is a valuable food for people who do heavy physical labor, and sports athletes who need a lot of glucose in the blood. When prolonged strenuous labor takes a lot of energy, the body often has to mobilize blood sugar to supply the muscles. In these cases, the glucose in the ripe bananas will be quickly absorbed into the blood to replenish the sugar consumed by the body, helping the worker recover quickly. In addition, ripe bananas also have many mineral salts (calcium, phosphorus, iron, especially potassium) and vitamins (0.12mg carotene, 0.04mg vitamin B1, 0.05mg vitamin B2, 0.7mg vitamin P6, 6mg vitamin C, etc.) are substances necessary for the body.

The correlation between potassium and sodium is related to blood pressure and the functioning of the cardiovascular system. Sodium is an important component of table salt that can cause a burden on the cardiovascular system between the water in the body, and potassium, on the other hand, helps the body eliminate sodium. Also, foods rich in potassium and low in sodium have the ability to reduce blood pressure in people with hypertension, if eaten regularly 2-3 ripe bananas for a few weeks can reduce blood pressure index. about 10% or more. In addition to the above effects, recent studies also show that ripe bananas have an important place in low-lipid diets, salt diets and for people with high cholesterol in the blood, people with constipation, digestive problems.
