When you sight a banana with dark spots just be aware it has good natural sugar.

Fully ripened yellow bananas are soft and sweet. This sweetness translates to energy. As the Banana ripens and develops brown spots, the sugar content goes from 0 to almost 80 percent. The more brown spots, the more sugar!

Bananas are good for the stomach, they help with digestion. Ripened Bananas help raise blood glucose levels. Bananas that are yellow and flecked with a few dark spots are usually at the peak of their flavour, hence ripe Bananas, especially this type is great for exercise and a healthy lifestyle.

The more dark patches, the higher will be its immunity enhancement quality. According to Japanese Scientific Research, full ripe banana with dark patches on yellow skin produces a substance called TNF (Tumor Necrosis Factor) which has the ability to combat abnormal cells and fight cancer. The more dark patches it has the higher will be its immunity enhancement quality. As it turns to yellow its antioxidant level increases.

High content natural sugars in Bananas make them good as a sugar substitute; can be used for baking, making smoothies and milk shakes.

Banana is an excellent form of Vitamin C, Fibre, Vitamin B6 and Potassium. Potassium is good for sports and muscle recovery, Vitamin B6 is good for strength. It is great to take Bananas as a supplement with meals. It is also recommended to eat one or two bananas a day to increase the body immunity to diseases like cold and flu.

Amazing fact: A ripe banana, in visible light, is yellow with brown spots; however, when observed under ultraviolet light, the ordinary brown spots glow blue, according to the National Science Foundation.

The Banana is definitely a magic fruit!

Thelonius: Rizks told me that the bendier and darker the banana, the more delicious it is. Is that true ?

Although I don't recommend regular individuals take 16 bananas, else too much unnecessary weight will be added. These sprinter guys are training at the highest level and their body system is not like that of the average human. "Everything they consume, they burn radically, their training is extreme".

I personally take roughly about 3 to 5 a day.

@ Thelonius, they are training partners, both their sprint times are quite close. So I guess they take close to the same quantity. Although Blake is more of the beast, so I guess he eats more.
