22. Hangover cure – Banana

Banana eaten as fruit or as a banana Milk Shake with honey and lemon juice to taste and sip:

Banana – Contains 3 natural sugars Sucrose, Fructose, and Glucose and Tryptophan – a protein that converts into serotonin, Vit-A, Vit B-6 & B-12, Iron, Potassium. It is low in sodium and fibre and provides an instant energy boost. It reduces the risk of blood pressure and stroke and helps normal bowel motion.

Compared to an apple, a banana has 4 times the protein, twice the carbohydrates, 3 times the phosphorous, 5 times the Vita A and iron and twice the other vitamins and minerals. Perhaps it is time to change that old saying to “A banana a day helps the doctor away” – except that whole apples have an unusual polyphenol composition that is very beneficial.

However, as banana is restricted in the Low-Carb Diet, due to its carbohydrates and caloric content, it should be consumed with care. Of course there is no such restriction on feast days.
