And there are a few more foods that I cannot enjoy to eat. I had a problem with my stomach last year, I don't know what is the cause and how did it start, it started in my few months of working in new company. Probably my body is do not adapt well in the set-up. So I was in constant LBM for almost a year that's why I went to see a doctor, but not regularly. I've had two doctors and I went good on the second one. Now I stop seeing doctor cause I am 80% ok but once in a while if I ate something that my stomach can't take probably, I am having stomach ache, one of which that really makes my stomach ache is Banana. I love eating fruits as long as they are available in my sight. My mother buy banana once in a while and I like eating dessert after meals so whenever there is banana, I eat but after a few hours, I am starting to feel that my stomach is not normal and there is a bit pain I feel for the whole day. Other food that my tummy is reacting bad are cheese, softdrinks and tea. How can I say no to a fruit that is so nutritious and delicious and that my body need? Do you have food that you can't or not allowed to eat?

hi lanie.
i think we are part of the minority who don't eat bananas.
true story behind this is i don't eat bananas because at a young age my grandparents used to have monkeys for pets. we had three monkeys and they had a spacious cage at our backyard. every morning, i would feed them bananas and i remember when i was younger i enjoyed our pet monkeys eating all the bananas that they can consume. when i grew older, i found the sight of monkeys eating bananas disgusting. hence, my dislike for bananas.
i never got over this 'trauma',if you'd like to call it that. anyway, i'm sure there are alternative fruits out there or even supplements that one can take to get enough potassium and nutrients one gets from eating bananas.
have a great day!
cheers!!!

Hi Allen! The reason why I can't enjoy eating banana is not because of trauma of something I've seen but it hurt's my stomach. 95% after I ate banana, I feel stomach ache that I can't explain, whether it's one banana or more. Before I even eat it together with rice but now since I had stomach problem I can't enjoy eating. I love fruits and banana is one of them, so sad that I had to go through that pain after eating something I love.

If you can't eat banana maybe you will try different fruits. If your body react against eating bananas maybe you should not eat them. I had such problems in the past as my body had problems with digesting some of the food like potato, bananas, bread, flour, cakes. The problem was with starch. I was non very strict diet about two years. Later I tried to eat some starch and my body accepted it. Sometimes I have problems with it specially when I eat bananas so still I have to be careful what I eat. I wish you all the best.

I actually eat almost all fruits, it's just that banana is my mother's favorite and she buys it whenever she can so, me as a fruit lover, I eat it. I'm also trying to introduce it to my stomach so it can used to it but most of the time I feel tummy ache :(.

hi:)
I was wondering why banana gives you that reaction, because for what I know banana is good for LBM, because I remember when I have Lbm before my grandma always ask me to eat banana she said it can help to cure it... but if banana gives you that bad effect maybe it's better if you just eat other fruits, because you need lots of fruits for your fiber needs.
