Tell us about this fruit, why do you like it, does your family like it, do you have another favourite fruit in addition to the selected one?

Today, I have selected the Banana fruit which is one of the most common and most liked fruit in our country. It is widely available in all the parts of the world and especially the Asian and African countries are top listed among the production of banana fruit.

I like the banana fruit very much and not only me, but the whole of my family also like the Banana fruit due to the high nutritious nature of this fruit. This fruit is available very easily in our area and another good thing is that we can enjoy this great fruit in winter and summer, both.

The taste of the fruit is very sweet and this is also one of the most important reasons behind the selection of this fruit for this post. Yes, I also like many other fruits like oranges, apples, strawberry, grapes, pomegranate, pear and watermelon. But, according to the today's fruit, I have selected the Banana fruit.

The Bananas are the great source of many essential nutrients that are required by our body. There are many health benefits of banana, some of them are discussed here. The most important content that is found in banana is high potassium, carbohydrates, Vitamin C, antioxidants and fibers as well.

Also, the bananas contain the Vitamin B6 which is very much essential for the improvement in the functioning of digestion system. The high potassium content in banana help us to maintain our kidney in the normal state. The fibers and antioxidants are very much useful for the maintenance of blood pressure and heartbeat rates.
