Choose A: Banana, formerly known as sweet banana. Its flesh is soft and chewy, sweet and delicious. Legend has it that Siddhartha Gautama, the founder of Buddhism, gained wisdom by eating bananas, which is why they are known as the \"fruit of wisdom.\" Bananas are very nutritious; per 100 grams of their flesh, they contain 1.2 grams of protein, 0.5 grams of fat, 19.5 grams of carbohydrates, 0.9 grams of dietary fiber, 9 milligrams of calcium, 31 milligrams of phosphorus, and 0.6 milligrams of iron. They also contain carotenes, thiamine, niacin, vitamin C, vitamin E, as well as the essential trace element potassium. Bananas help the brain produce a chemical in the body called serotonin, which stimulates the nervous system and sends signals that bring happiness, calmness, and drowsiness; it even has analgesic effects. Therefore, bananas are also known as “food for happiness.” American medical experts have found that eating bananas regularly can help prevent high blood pressure, as bananas provide a significant amount of potassium, which helps lower blood pressure and counteracts the effects of sodium on raising blood pressure and damaging blood vessels. They also believe that a lack of potassium in the body can cause dizziness, general weakness, and irregular heartbeats. Moreover, bananas contain a variety of nutrients, have a low sodium content, and are free of cholesterol; therefore, eating them provides the body with various nutrients without causing weight gain. Therefore, eating bananas regularly is not only beneficial for the brain and helps prevent nerve fatigue, but it also soothes the lungs, relieves coughs, and prevents constipation.
