Don't ever go bananas

With the busy Christmas holiday around the bend and the cold December air some people are having this thing called SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) .Scientist explains it as a depress mood due to longer nights.

In a tropical country like mine ,there is an increasing reports of people commiting suicide at various age groups for reasons like a heartbreak or failing and exam or uemployment So this article is partly to raise such awareness and partly to inform my dear Steemians why eating bananas will reduce our sad days.

Banana unknown to all is not a fruit but a herb. When people say one goes banana it would mean one goes crazy or in local language goes "gaga ".

Do you know that this banana has serotonin the happy chemical in them? Yes they do! So when depress or having a migraine just eat a finger ( one piece) or the hand ( cluster) or simply rub the peeling to those pain site.Ir saves you a lot of money from buying those expensive drugs with no detriment to your kidney.

Speaking of kidney, since banana is 70% fat and potassium loaded and zero sodium some studies even say that people who eat bananas are less likely to have kidney problem. How cool is that. So hereon, I will increase my intake from its ripe sweet form to those banana recipe dessert like "banana cue "(caramelised on a stick) or " turon" (banana wrapped in lumpia wrapper then deep fried) or "pinaypay ( banana in sweet batter then fried).
