Banana flower has outstanding medicinal properties, also known as a banana blossom or banana heart. It has a potent nutritional profile. Banana flower is packed with essential minerals such as phosphorous, calcium, potassium, copper, magnesium and iron, vital for several bodily functions.
Health Benefits Of Banana Flowers:
Keeps Infections At Bay
Banana flower seems to be very effective in treating infections in natural ways. The extract in banana flower has ethanol which prevents the growth of pathogenic bacteria.
Supports Menstrual Wellness
Cooked banana flowers can help deal with pain abdomen and reduces the menstrual bleeding. Consumed along with curd or yoghurt, these flowers increase the progesterone hormone in the body and reduce bleeding.
Controls Diabetes
According to the study published in the Journal of Food and Agriculture, banana flower extracts promoted glucose uptake, which in turn reduces blood sugar levels.
Boosts Mood And Reduces Anxiety
Banana flower contains magnesium, reduces anxiety and boosts the mood. They act as natural antidepressants.
Averts Cancer And heart Disease
Banana flower contains phenolic acids, tannins, flavonoids and various other antioxidants. These antioxidants neutralize free radicals, prevent oxidative damage, and reduces the risk of heart diseases and cancer.
Improves Lactation
Banana flower, a galactagogues vegetable, increases the breast milk secretion for the lactating mothers. It also helps to support the uterus and reduces bleeding post-delivery.
Slows The Ageing Process
Banana flower, rich in vitamin C and a potent source of antioxidants, is very vital for health because they reduce stress on cells and slow down the ageing process.
Promotes Kidney Function
The myriad of nutrients presents in banana flower stimulates healthy functioning of the kidneys. Adding young banana flower in the diet works as a natural remedy for dissolving painful kidney stones and averts the risk of inflammation and urinary problems.
Boosts Iron Levels
The richness of iron in banana flowers can remarkably pump iron stores and improves symptoms associated with anaemia such as fatigue, tiredness, irregular heartbeat, pale skin, cold feet and hands. Regular addition of banana flower in the meal increases the levels of red blood cells and combats iron deficiency anaemia.
Remedies Digestive Problems
Banana flower is an alkaline food which effectively neutralizes the stomach acid secretions and offers respite from indigestion, ulcers and pain. Apart from this, high on dietary fibre and other vital nutrients banana flowers work as a natural laxative and regularise bowel functions and treat constipation.
Aids Weight Loss
An ounce of banana flower contains fewer calories, ample protein, and is high in fibre. This curbs hunger cravings and keeps body satiated for longer periods which makes it ideal for any weight loss diet plan.
Treats Prostate Enlargement
Banana flower extract can subdue growth of prostate cells besides helping to ameliorate all kinds of urinary disturbance. With its ability to synthesize dihydrotestosterone-a hormone linked to health issues in men, it is useful in treating prostate enlargement.
Augments Hair Growth
Banana flower has the potential to lessen oxidative stress by protecting hair from external stressors and improving hair thickness and texture. The flower extracts are a key ingredient in hair serums, oils, creams, and masks. It plays a vital role in making your hair follicles stronger and boosting hair growth.
Supports Bone Health
Banana blossoms contain significant potassium, calcium, as well as vitamins A, C, and E apart from powerful flavonoids like quercetin and catechin. These can alleviate joint discomfort, increases bone mineral density, and reduce osteocalcin levels thus preventing chances of osteoporosis.
Skin Benefits Of This Superfood
Alleviates Hyperpigmentation
Banana flowers are a rich source of potassium, Vitamin E, and C. The blooms are also enriched with antioxidants that are known to protect the skin from harmful free radicals. All these skin-healthy components help to lighten problems of hyperpigmentation. A mash of banana flowers with banana fruit works well and can also help to slow down the signs of ageing.

Absolutely amazing and insightful ingredients which you lovingly shared with us all. I've lived in Nigeria with my family. Dad was 🇳🇬 & Mum is 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 yet she can understand one of the two languages that my father spoke which was Yoroba and she was also fully aware of the traditional meals that we ate even after being brought back to Britain. I did inform our father that I was upset and felt isolated from not knowing our peoples native tongue or being able to speak or understand Yoroba. His reasoning behind this was that he and our mum knew that we were returning to Britain and that this would just confuse us(I'm not of the same belief) I did get it though. I look forward to seeing more of your delicious menus and food and I'm now a proud prescriber of your channel. Heya from London 🇬🇧 too. Bon Appétit 🤌🏾🙏🏾💚🤍💚❤🤍💙
