Eating Bananas For Weight Loss - Is It For Real?

There are many people out there that have tried every diet known to man and still can't lose weight. Some Diets are claiming that you can lose 20 pounds in just 33 days by eating bananas! This has already been done in Japan with enormous success. Exercise and changing your normal daily diet are not even necessary.

Just how amazing is the banana? Most people don't realize just how beneficial bananas are. There are only 95 calories and 0.5 grams of fat in a single banana. Even if you have an ulcer, they are safe. They will soothe your stomach and reduce heartburn. They can reduce blood pressure, keep your heart healthy, and improve the quality of your skin and hair. They contain large amounts of insoluble carbohydrates. This can help burn excess body fat. They also contain enzymes that will help boost your metabolism, also aiding the fat-burning process.

They do not contain any sodium or cholesterol, therefore great at preventing heart disease and cancer. They are rich in vitamin C and B6, potassium, fiber, and magnesium. There are amounts of serotonin and norepinephrine in bananas that can help people who suffer from depression. Research has shown that eating a banana helps to put you in a good mood! Since very few people are allergic to them, they are virtually safe for everyone to eat. They are a popular food for babies because they are so easy to digest.

So, how does this diet work? You eat 1 or 2 before each meal, then eat whatever you want for the meal. You can occasionally replace your banana with an apple before breakfast or lunch if you're getting tired of them. In Japan, their version of the diet only requires that you eat as many bananas as you want for breakfast with lukewarm water and then whatever you want for lunch and dinner. They do also require that you cut out dessert and get plenty of sleep at night. Whatever the formula, this diet does appear to work. Some individuals have lost nearly 40 pounds by making this minor change to their diet!
