FAQ:
Q: Why are overripe bananas healthier than fresh ones?
A: As bananas ripen, their starch converts into simple sugars, making them easier to digest. They also develop higher levels of antioxidants, which help fight free radicals and reduce inflammation.
Q: Can I use overripe bananas for smoothies?
A: Absolutely! Overripe bananas add natural sweetness and creaminess, making smoothies taste richer without added sugar.
Q: Is it safe to eat bananas that are completely brown or black?
A: Generally, bananas with mostly brown or black skins are safe as long as there’s no mold or off smell. Their texture might be mushier, but they’re excellent for baking or freezing.
Q: How can I prevent bananas from ripening too fast?
A: Store bananas in a cool place away from direct sunlight and separate them from other fruits that emit ethylene gas, which accelerates ripening.
Q: Can old bananas help with digestion?
A: Yes! Overripe bananas contain more prebiotic fibers that feed healthy gut bacteria, promoting better digestion and gut health.
