Going All Fruity

Afternoon all...
Today I dont know whats got into me but I am going all fruity! Nice cup of tea with slice of lemon in it and fruits... Bananas, Apples and Pears. To be honest I dont fancy banana but in recent journal of medical that I was reading it says something about bananas being one of the food that can contained low uric acid and can curb gouty arthritis... interesting isnt it... But I too know that too much of bananas will lead to diabetic... cause the contain of sugar in one banana is equal to two in a tea cup! Well actually if Im going to put it right, it contains more starch than sugar! good source of potassium, Vitamin C and fibers!

Let's be a little bit educational shall we?

Banana comes from the Family of Musacea. It is normally kept at a room temperature and if u want it to ripen faster -- take a bowl and placed it under the sun. If u store it inside the fridge of below 8 degree it'll decay from the inside and turn black in color. It is said that banana plant originally from the Indo-Malaysian area (hmmm not so sure but I know i read it somewhere)

I was told by an elderly one time that there are many types of bananas some of which I havent heard before in my entire life... but the common ones are red bananas, baby bananas, apple bananas and many others. In malay ive heard of Pisang emas, pisang tanduk, pisang kipas, pisang gajah and many.. told ya its confusing.

Do you know that in Eastern Africa there are banana beer? they actually brewed the bananas and make it a beer... Interesting. There ya go a little bit about bananas... that comes to mind that is

Meanwhile, Apple which the tree said to be from the Western Asia too contains lots of fiber. But public has been adviced not to eat too many of the apple-seeds, each one contains a bit of cyanide. Now this element is being produced by the tree itself to spread its seed.

In our body and of animals, we more likely to decline and throw away the seeds and not consuming it cause they are a little toxic and its not digestible. Hence we just need to becareful not to eat the crushed seed. However, Vitamin C would be the major content of an Apple.

Do you know... there are some people who are allergic to apple? Interesting isn't it.... but they normally show mild sign like itchiness or swelling... and nothing major so far. perhaps due to the chemical reaction if they dont wash it properly before consuming?

BUT I LOVE PAPAYA & PINEAPPLE THE MOST!!!
