Banana powder, essential to maintain healthy eyesight

Banana powder is a booming product but it is still quite unknown to the vast majority. The banana powder that we find at Casa Perris is a green product , so it does not contain pesticides or chemicals. In this way, a 100% natural product is guaranteed. Banana powder is made from red bananas grown in Ecuador. This variety stands out for its reddish skin, its large size and its sweet flavor when compared to typical yellow-skinned bananas. Red bananas are harvested at their optimal point of ripeness, then peeled, crushed and dried at low temperature until banana flakes are obtained. With this drying method, the loss of minerals and vitamins is avoided and a high quality product with great nutritional value is guaranteed. The product is then sterilized and the banana scales are ground until obtaining a fine powder.

What benefits does regular consumption of banana powder bring us?

Red bananas are the fruit with the highest content of beta-carotene, an orange or reddish pigment (also present in carrots, pumpkins and sweet potatoes) that our body transforms into vitamin A, essential to keep our eyesight healthy. Another important fact about red bananas is their high potassium content, a basic mineral for the proper functioning of the nervous, muscular and circulatory system . These fruits also contain vitamin C, essential for our body to absorb minerals such as iron and calcium. Apart from all these benefits and its rich flavor, the red banana stands out for its sweetness and for containing naturally present sugars such as glucose or fructose. Thus, banana powder provides us with long-lasting energy.

How to take banana powder?

Banana powder can be taken in smoothies, yogurts, juices or desserts. Apart from providing flavor and nutrients, this product is an ideal substitute for cane sugar.
