PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Red bananas have a distinctive red to purple skin, rather than the more conventional yellow bananas and are usually smaller than regular yellow bananas. This fruit has soft and creamy texture in cream to slightly pink color. The color comes from the beta-carotene red bananas contain, and the aroma reminds of sweet strawberries.
Red bananas can be consumed when their skin starts getting dark chestnut-red color and few brown spots. It is better not to consume the fruit if it is too soft and has intense flavor, because of the fermentation process which causes loss of enzymes and development of some dangerous bacteria.
This fruit has high nutritional and calorific value, containing large amounts of potassium, Vitamin C and beta-carotene. Medium sized fruits contain 400 mg of potassium, which covers body’s daily needs of this mineral and electrolytes. The potassium in red bananas is necessary for proper function of the heart muscle and the digestive system.
Except for being delicious, red bananas are rich in Vitamin C as well. One red banana is enough to cover 15 % of the body’s daily needs of Vitamin C.
