Banana Nutrition - Vitamins in A Banana

According to biochemical analysis, bananas contain carbohydrates, protein, potassium, vitamin C and vitamin E. The content of potassium works to lower blood pressure. Vitamin C can increase endurance. Vitamin E helps control the aging process, so we look younger. Content of the first three, namely carbohydrates, proteins, and vitamins, the value is not much different between the harvested before ripe or mature after harvest. If different, is not a key issue because most people eat bananas and not for the purpose of adding these three nutrients.

Type of carbohydrate in the form of sucrose ripe bananas yet, while the eye in the form of fructose is sweeter taste. Therefore, bananas are harvested before ripe to wait for the biochemical changes. Bananas are cut too young usually become less sweet banana flavor for biochemical processes are not perfect. The content of potassium, vitamin C, and vitamin E in the harvested before ripe bananas are harvested when ripe with very striking. As one of the essential mineral elements, potassium has unique properties. This element is necessary for carbohydrate metabolism of plants and forms a network, but if the network is old, this element will be left in the network


When the fruit is not yet ripe bananas, potassium is still active in the metabolism of carbohydrates. If harvested in these conditions, the chemical structure in fruit tissue has not been steady or less abortion and its chemical structure is still unstable. However, if harvested after the fruit matures, abortion has been widely and its chemical structure is fixed. If we eat a ripe banana, then the benefits that can be obtained are the banana contains more potassium.

Chemical structure of vitamin C and vitamin E when the fruit is not ripe yet steady, so that implies lower. It is not possible in a state of chemical structure has not been established, the two vitamins is actually decomposed during the ripening process. Bananas are also a source of minerals and phosphorus. Vitamin C in bananas is generally higher than other types of vitamins, except in banana conjoined.
Siam banana (Musa Paradisiaca forma typica) contains nutrients rather different other types of bananas. Water content in bananas conjoined less so drier. Fat and carbohydrate is high enough so that the energy produced is also high.
