I'm searching if banana can be considered as superfood. One article I found said it's a 70 years old man's secret to looking young, looking 50 years old only. He eat two bananas a day.
I'm not fond of bananas especially yellowish flesh bananas I like those with white flesh and sweeter small bananas. It's rich source of potassium but I don't know what actually potassium do to our body.
From now on I will always eat bananas. I want to always look young but I already look young for my age. How often do you eat bananas?

@averygirl72 We only eat time by time. As everything also bananas have side effects if you eat too many. They are also known to give migraine and this is my case.

On the average I eat about 10 bananas a day, very ripe with spots on them. Since I eat almost only fresh fruits and vegetables and a banana has about 100 calories, it is how I get my calories to maintain my weight. I think all fruits and vegetables are real super-foods and we should eat a variety of them every day.

@averygirl72 You have to eat them when they are very ripe with lots of brown spots on them. Bananas are recommended to alleviate constipation. I used to be constipated but now it doesn't happen anymore.
The ones that are brown are ready to be eaten.

Maybe it's exaggeration that banana can make you younger but I think it's very healthy

I like bananas. I eat them a few days during the week on my cereal or oatmeal. Bananas are beneficial for heart health as the potassium contained in them helps lower blood pressure and magnesium another mineral found in bananas also helps maintain normal body functions. Never heard of it making you look younger though?

Yes it's delicious to add in cereals or oatmeal. That is true it is good for the heart health because it's rich in potassium and magnesium. I hope it is true it can make you younger. I will try to have them everyday
