How Healthy Banana Split Ingredients Benefit Us
Bananas- Rich in nutrients and contain a good amount of fiber, and carbs. They are full of antioxidants which are shown to aid digestion. Not to mention, they also help you feel fuller, and are the perfect food for athletes.
Greek Yogurt- Excellent source of protein and calcium, plus it provides a complete source of essential amino acids. I use plain greek yogurt and mix it with honey (a natural sweetener) for full health benefits!
Honey- Contains antioxidants, minerals, and enzymes. It is also shown that honey can soothe coughs, sore throats and treat wounds. Plus, it is super easy to add honey in your diet, and pairs well with yogurt, oats, baking, etc.
Coconut Flakes- Coconut is high in nutrients and contains a high amount of manganese, which is essential for bone health, and the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and cholesterol. It also contains powerful antioxidants, which can help protect cells.
Dark Chocolate Chips- Dark chocolate containing 70% of cacao, is a powerful source of antioxidants. Research has also shown that consuming dark chocolate can improve cardiovascular health and lower blood pressure as well!
Peanut Butter- Great source of protein and healthy fats. It also is loaded with vitamins and minerals, which are essential for the body. Additionally, it is high in fiber which aids better digestion. Since, most peanut butters have added ingredients like sugar or oil, the best option is to buy it with peanuts only.
