Better
than an energy drink, bananas are a superfood. The entire tree can be consumed
in one form or another.
It’s
good for the heart, controls blood pressure, aids in weight loss and builds
strong bones. And this is just the fruit. The entire banana tree – from its
fruit and flowers to its stem and leaves – is of use. Bananas make for a great
pick-up fruit and snacks – banana chips, anyone or, perhaps, a glass of thick
banana shake? The flowers make for a delectable Bengali dish mocha ghonto
as well as a dry dish down south. The stem is cooked in several parts of India
and south-east Asia. The leaves make for perfect environmentally-friendly
plates.

| Banana are consumed as chips, mixed veggies and as ripe fruit. |
The presence of banana tree and leaves is
considered auspicious in Hindu culture and planting of banana trees symbolises
happiness, marital bliss and prosperity.
Like
all trees, it means more oxygen and a cleaner, greener world.
