Some of the key health benefits of pitaya…

  1. High in nutrients and low in calories
  2. Good source of magnesium
  3. Contains a good dose of fibre

And the health benefits of banana?

  1. Bananas are low on the glycaemic index (assisting with blood glucose regulation).
  2. They help to correct dysbiosis and associated digestive complaints.
  3. The fibre content in bananas is also beneficial for colon health.
  4. The nutrient most associated with bananas is potassium, an important mineral for our cardio-vascular system, helping to regulate blood pressure.
  5. Bananas contain good levels of tryptophan, the precursor amino acid to the neurotransmitter, serotonin (involved in mood and memory).
  6. Good quantities of vitamin B6, as well as vitamin C, biotin, folate and manganese.
