Banana leaves are actually very beneficial for health, especially when used for steaming food, according to Dr Monal Velangi (PhD), senior dietitian. Actually cooking releases polyphenols and flavonoids from the leaves, which enter the food and provide antioxidant benefits. In fact these antioxidants may help delay onset and progression of non-communicable diseases like diabetes, cancer and heart diseases, she said. This is actually very important news and many people will get benefits from it.
Actually food is very important thing for anyone and by eating good food we can make good health. Actually if you see the foods made traditionally specially the food made in our home are actually very good for our health. We should make a habit to eat this food and make a healthy lifestyle. In fact if you see today we can find a wide variety of fast food which is tasty to eat but very bad for our health. In reality food steamed in banana leaves are good for health and sometime we should try this type of food in our life to know food better.
