Health benefits of banana juice – aids digestion & peaceful sleep

Banana juice is not one of the most common fruit juices which you can find in markets in your area but this is very delicious and nutritious juice which is available in some parts of the world. This juice can be easily made at your home. It is derived from bananas. Bananas scientifically belong to the Musa genus along with plantains. There are more than 70 different species. There are different varieties of bananas around the world but many of these varieties have similar nutritional profiles and ingredients. This juice is in a blended form, rather than pure juice and this is a reason why there is a good amount of fiber. There are roughly 3 grams of fiber per banana. Fiber is important for managing cholesterol levels and digestion but if you consume too much fiber, then it can cause excess flatulence, cramping, bloating and constipation. When you have too much potassium in your blood, this condition is known as hyperkalemia. This condition can cause palpitations and irregular heartbeats. This type of strain on your heart is never a good idea, especially if you had cardiovascular issues in your past. Also if you consume too much potassium, then this can negatively affect your muscle function because electrolytes like sodium and potassium must remain in balance to maintain nervous system communication and achieve water balance.
