Fruit for Thought
July 31, 2009
Banana
Benefits:
1. Prevents hair loss
2. Has an anti-aging effect
3. Provides moisture
Bananas are a good source of tryptophan which has a sedative effect on the body. Tryptophan helps to fight stress and calm nerves. Diabetics should avoid consumption of ripe bananas as they have a higher amount of fruit sugar than those that are not ripe. Fruit sugar is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream.
Kiwi
Benefits:
1. Anti-aging
2. Boosts the immune system
3. Prevents wrinkles
Kiwi fruits are high in vitamin C which make capillary walls strong. Healthy capillary walls help transport oxygen and nutrients to the skin.
Raspberries
Benefits:
1. Prevents splitting nails and dry skin
2. Protects eyes and gums
3. Increases water intake
Raspberries are loaded with vitamin C which promotes healthy skin. They are also excellent energy boosters and they prevent finger nails from becoming brittle or splitting
