About Half of a medium banana
Half of a medium banana is a convenient, nutrient-packed snack or ingredient commonly enjoyed worldwide. Native to Southeast Asia, bananas are now a staple in countless cuisines, from tropical smoothies to baked goods. This portion provides approximately 50 calories, 0 grams of fat, 13 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of fiber, and a small but beneficial amount of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin B6, and potassium. Its natural sweetness makes it a healthy alternative to processed sugars, while the soluble fiber supports digestive health. The potassium content is especially notable for aiding heart health and muscle function. However, due to its carbohydrate content, it may not suit very low-carb dietary plans. Whether eaten fresh, blended, or incorporated into recipes, half of a medium banana is a versatile and nutritious option for a quick energy boost or balanced meal addition.
