Jiang Shoushan, a Taiwanese nephrologist, recently visitedFacebookShare, citing a study published in 2022 in the medical journal Cancer Prevention Research showing that eating one green banana a day can reduce the risk of cancer. The study followed nearly 1,000 people with Lynch syndrome who took the equivalent of a green banana a day of resistant starch for two years.
The results of the study found that although the risk of colon cancer was not reduced, the risk of certain digestive tract cancers, such as gastric cancer, biliary tract cancer, pancreatic cancer and duodenal cancer, was reduced by 60%.
Jiang Shoushan pointed out that in addition to green bananas containing resistant starch, other foods including oats, grains, pasta and rice, peas and vegetables all contain resistant starch, and quoted researchers as saying that resistant starch is a kind of carbohydrate that will not Digested in the small intestine; instead, it is fermented in the large intestine, feeding beneficial gut bacteria. The researchers believe that resistant starch alters the metabolism of bile acids, which can otherwise damage DNA, leading to cancer.
In fact, in addition to unripe green bananas, “spotted bananas” have also been confirmed by Japanese medical research to help kill cancer cells. A study by the University of Tokyo found that ripe bananas contain “Tumor Necrosis Factor” (TNF for short) that can fight cancer cells and help strengthen the function of white blood cells, which is 8 times higher than bananas with yellow or green skins.
The report also pointed out that if you eat two black-spotted bananas a day for one month, in addition to anti-cancer, it can also lower blood pressure, enhance heart function and improve intestinal health, which can help reduce the risk of ischemic stroke by 49%. It is also helpful for heartburn, diarrhea and constipation.
