This is confirmed SCIENTIFIC STUDY THE UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO, JAPAN.
As for the taste of bananas, Nothing is written. Since I -sancochado green consumption in some parts of the islands Western-, through its yellow color with paint, almost blackish past and dehydrated. What we did not know was what happens in their maturation process to benefit our health.
A Japanese scientific study has provided new information to the fight against cancer (They are infecting abnormal cells body), revealing that ripe bananas produce a substance called TNF, Tumor Necrosis Factor, which it has a great ability to fight mutant cells.
The degree of anti-cancer effect corresponds to the degree of ripeness of the fruit. In this respect, Researchers have discovered that the more black more effective. According to Professor Dr. Darryl See, University of Tokyo, yellow skin with dark spots Bananas are 8 times more effective than greener.
The discovery was made by comparing the different health benefits of different fruits: banana, grapes, Apple, watermelon, pineapple, pear and persimmon. It was found that banana gave the best results, since it increased the number of white blood cells, improving immunity of the body which produces the substance anticancer TNF.
According See mechanism is the interaction of TNF with tumor cells to activate cytolysis or cell death. Interaction with TNF receptors on endothelial cells leading to increased vascular permeability allowing access leukocytes to the site of infection, explained researcher.
Bananas are not only rich in potassium, but also calcium, magnesium, fluorine, iron, B vitamins and selenium. They also contain some amounts of vitamin C. Chemical analysis prove that bananas contain tryptophan, According to psychiatrists, is an amino acid which can be converted into serotonin, which improves mood, relieving depression.
In addition, eating bananas helps improve hangover, the hypertension, the risk of cardiovascular events, the slow traffic and even maintains healthy vision, according to multiple investigations.
