About Banana medium size
A medium-sized banana, typically about 7-8 inches long, is a versatile fruit originating from the tropics, often associated with cuisines from South America, Asia, and Africa. Packed with essential nutrients, a single banana provides around 105 calories, 27 grams of carbohydrates, and 3 grams of fiber, making it an excellent source of natural energy. Bananas are rich in potassium, which supports heart health and proper muscle function, as well as vitamin B6 for brain function and immune support. They also contain vitamin C and small amounts of magnesium. Naturally free of fat, cholesterol, and sodium, bananas can be enjoyed fresh, blended into smoothies, or used in baked goods. While they are healthy overall, their high natural sugar content may need consideration for low-sugar diets. Easy to digest and filling, bananas are a nutritious choice for a balanced diet.
