    Eat your bananas. Bananas are full of important vitamins and minerals, are extremely nutritious, help aid in recovery, and are delicious.

    No one got fat eating fruit.

    Bananas are good. Sugar in fruit is good. Sugar in anything else that isn't fruit sugar or natural cane is bad. End of story. :)

    Oh good lord...

    Did I say something wrong?

    I actually break out in hives, from eating bananas, mild allergy. The last time, I actually ate bananas has been over 25 years! I have to be careful, if someone else makes banana bread, snacks with bananas, etc...

    Quite some time ago my doctor told me about Glycemic Index and what I took away from that was to try to choose low GI foods where possible, especially fruits because I love the sugar. I'm not qualified to comment on the finer points of Glycemic Index, but here is a list of foods (including fruits and veggies) with their GI value.

    Hope this helps!

    What, like fauxnanas?

    ^ LOL.

    DON'T GIVE UP BANANAS.

    Like I mentioned in an earlier post..
    they're a runner's best friend. or for anyone who works out a lot.

    if you're really that worried, then just eat one or two instead of three :P

    bananas are like the best fruit you can eat.. micronutrient dense, potassium dense.. just one of the greatest foods ever. usually bodybuilders pick 1 or 2 fruits to consume its usually bananas and some sort of berry...

    and all carbohydrates are sugar

    Ok, ok... NATURAL sugar in anything is good, processed is bad. Is that better? That's what I meant in the first place. :D
