Banana (Musa paradisiaca)
About Banana
According to research, banana has been found in Papua Nugini
for more than 10,000 years ago.
The consumption of banana in Indonesia 5kg/year/person
Every part of Banana tree has a function:
-The roots for medicine purpose
-The stem for making raft, etc.
-The leaf for food packaging
-The fruit can be eaten
Type of banana

-Pisangtanduk
Nutrients of Banana
99 gram (gr) calorie
1,2 gr protein
0,2 gr fat
25,8 miligram (mg) carbohydrate
0,7 gr fiber
8 mg calcium
28 mg phosphor
0,5 mg iron
44 RE vitamin A
0,08 mg vitamin B
3 mg vitamin C
72 gr water
Use of Banana1. Source of energy:
sugar contain in banana will provide energy for body shape and muscle
2. Pregnant women:
Contain of high folic acid which is good for fetus for development of cell.
Two bananas provide enough folic acid (58 microgram).
Banana has glucose that can reduce morning sick.
3. For anemia:
Banana contain of iron which helps to stimulate the production of hemoglobin
4. Gastric acid stomach:
Banana help to neutralized the stomach acid and coating the stomach
5. Liver disease:
Banana help to boost appetite (2 banana with 1 spoon of honey)
Use of Banana6. Burned skin
The leave is use to cover the burn part in form of ash mix with coconut oil
7. Against stress:
Banana contains potassium which helps to normalized the heart beat, sending
Oxygen to brain, and control osmotic water in the body. When stress, amount
of potassium in body decreasing. With banana, the potassium can be balanced.
8. Decreasing chance of getting stroke:
According to The New England Journal of Medicine, by consuming banana
everyday can reduce the chance of getting stroke by 40%
9. Control body temperature:
Banana can help to lower down
emotional of pregnant women and
Physical temperature
Use of Banana10. Wart treatment:
Stick the banana skin on the wart
11. Control body weight:
Banana is often use for diet purpose since it contain lots of carbohydrate
12. For smoker:
Banana help to overcome addiction of nicotine for smokers. It contain vitamin
B6 and B12 to neutralize nicotine in the body.
Banana also contain bromelain enzyme
13. Diabetes patient diet:
In some area such as Sulawesi, Gorontalo,
banana is use for diabetes diet.
Use of Banana14. Drunk medicine:
Using banana milkshake with honey can use for drunk medicine. The honey
Increase glucose in blood, while the banana help to calm the stomach.
15. PMS:
Vitamin B6 in banana control the blood glucose that can influence mood during
Menstruation
16. Beauty purpose:
Prevent dry skin, smoothen skin, hair growth, prevent pimples.
Hypertension According to www.healthstats.com, approximately one billion peoplehave high blood pressure. Threeout of tenpeople suffer from hypertension in Indonesia. Hypertension patients usually consume diuretic, beta-blocker, calcium channel blockerwith chemical side effect.
Banana for hypertension treatment
- Angiotensin-Converting-Enzyme ( ACE )
inhibitor molecules
- Lower sodium percentage
- Kalium
Angiotensin Converting
Enzyme
ACE plays an
important role
in regulating
blood pressure
by converting
angiotensin I to
angiotensin II.
Low Sodium Levels
• Pisang raja has low sodium level
• Sodium level plays an important role on the incidence of hypertension
• Sodium and chloride are the main ions in extracellular fluid
• Too much sodium sodium’s concentration in extracellular fluid increasing
• To normalize it, the intracellular fluid is pulled out
so that the extracellular fluid volume increased
• The volume of blood is increased
hypertension
• Sodium also tends to narrow the diameter of
blood vessels
• The increase of blood volume and the diameter
of blood vessels constrict
the blood pressure will increase
• Main sodium sources: sodium chloride,
monosodium glutamate, sodium carbonate
• Sodium in our body come from food or
beverages, and excreted through urine and
sweat
• Normal kidneys can regulate sodium that has
been excreted in urine, so the total amount of
sodium in our body is slightly varied from day
to day.
• The changes in the total amount of sodium is
related to the changes in the total amount of fluid
in body
• Loss of sodium in body does not mean the
sodium concentration in blood is decreased
• It causes the decrease in blood volume
• If the blood volume is decreased, the blood
pressure will also decrease
• Otherwise, blood volume will increase if there is
too much sodium in the body, thus blood
pressure will increase
• Since pisang raja has low levels of
sodium, pisang raja can be consumed by
hypertensive patients to lower the blood
pressure
Potassium
• Potassium is the main ions in intracellular fluid
• Consuming potassium too much will increase its
concentration in intracellular fluid, thus it tends to
draw the fluid from extracellular and lower the
blood pressure
• Unlike sodium, potassium enlarge the diameter
of blood vessels blood pressure will decrease
• One example of good main sources: pisang raja
• Pisang raja has high level of potassium but low
level of sodium
• By eating pisang raja regularly, we could
compensate sodium consumption from food
intake
• The inverse ratio of sodium and potassium may
be very helpful to stabilize the blood pressure
