Bananas are undeniably one of the most loved on-the-go fruits, which are loaded with health enriching proteins and other vital nutrients. But what if we tell you that pairing bananas with certain foods can work adversely and impact overall health and well being? Well, here are five foods that you must avoid pairing with bananas at all costs.

The nutrition

Bananas, a nutritional powerhouse, are rich in potassium, supporting heart health and regulating blood pressure. Packed with vitamins C and B6, they boost immunity and aid metabolism. The soluble fibre aids digestion, and natural sugars provide a quick energy boost. Bananas are a convenient, nutrient-dense snack promoting overall well-being.

​​Milk and dairy products

​

Bananas are naturally loaded with proteins, fiber and other essential minerals like magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, vitamin B, which makes it a filling as well as nutritious fruit. But when combined with the milk fats and other nutrients it increases the dose of nutrients and makes it difficult to digest and may trigger bloating or uneasiness.

Many people stick to a high protein diet, wherein they combine meat or eggs with bananas, which may slow down the digestive process. Bananas are relatively quick to digest, and combining them with slow-digesting proteins may cause fermentation and gas in the digestive tract.

​
​​Processed carbs​

Consuming bananas with processed carbohydrates such as sugary snacks or baked goods, may lead to a quick spike and sudden drop in blood sugar levels. This can result in feelings of fatigue and hunger shortly after eating.
06/10​​Green bananas​

​

This may sound strange, but ripe bananas are generally easy to digest, but pairing them with green bananas or unripe bananas can cause digestive discomfort as green bananas contain more resistant starch, which can be harder to digest and may cause bloating or gas in some individuals.

​​Citrus fruits​

Combining bananas with citrus fruits like lime, oranges or grapefruits, may lead to indigestion or discomfort for some individuals. This is because both bananas and citrus fruits contain acidic nutrients and the combination can be harsh on the stomach.

​
​​Sweets ​

Combining bananas with other sweets and desserts can lead to excessive sugar intake, which may contribute to weight gain and other health issues.

​Avocado​

Bananas and avocados are high in potassium, which can cause hyperkalemia, a disorder marked by excessive potassium levels in the blood. Hence, one should avoid pairing them together.

Excessively cold foods

Eating very cold foods, such as ice cream, immediately after consuming bananas may lead to stomach discomfort for some individuals.

What you eat in the morning can make or break your health, and this is why the first meal or drink of the day plays a crucial part in the day-to-day diet. According to health experts, the first drink or food of the day can either help in improving overall health by providing ample nutrients after sleep fasting for more than eight hours or can cause discomfort and digestive ailments. Here are some common foods that you must avoid consuming on an empty stomach.

​Coffee​

Drinking coffee on an empty stomach is a daily ritual for many people, but you will be amazed to know that consuming black coffee or coffee with milk can stimulate acid production in the stomach, which may lead to indigestion and discomfort.

​​Fried foods​

Eating puris or snacks in the morning can make you feel bloated throughout the day, this is because of the high oil and fat content, which can be heavy on the stomach. Consuming them on an empty stomach may lead to indigestion and can make you feel lethargic.

​Citrus Fruits​

Embarking the day with citrus fruits or juice can trigger acid reflux and may lead to discomfort and heartburn. In some cases, these foods may interact with digestive acids in the stomach and may lead to hyper acidity and cause ulcers.

​
​Bananas​

While bananas are generally considered a healthy fruit, some people may experience discomfort when eating them on an empty stomach due to their high magnesium and potassium content.
06/7​​Tomatoes​
​​Tomatoes​

Tomatoes are acidic in nature and consuming them in the form of salads, juice or smoothies can lead to acid reflux when eating/drinking them on an empty stomach.

​​Spicy foods​

Eating excessive amounts of spices and seasonings in the morning meal

can irritate the stomach lining and may lead to indigestion or heartburn when consumed on an empty stomach.
