What Bananas Aren't Good For...

Bananas are one of those complete fruits that is very complex as far as how long the chemistry goes to serve your body. Personally, I love bananas, pure and not banana flavored things. Two things that I have learned and been taught are as follows: if you are having symptoms of an ichy throat, sore throat or cough, do not consume bananas. They irritate your throat and cause the cough to worsen.
Secondly, bananas are good for muscle repair and to regain any carbohydrate that has been lost due to exercise. However, there is a difference between muscle pain and muscle soreness. Do not consume bananas when you are experiencing any type of muscle pain especially back pain.
There is one last suggestion, but haven't researched the validity of it. Try to avoid consuming bananas when outside or preparing to be outside where there is any possibility of encountering mosquitos. They love the scent the bananas given by your body odor causing the blood suckers to be attracted to your skin more likely making you live bait. I have experienced this myth however, still need to research it.
Next time, consider your diet when you are sick.
