AFTER READING THIS, YOU`LL NEVER LOOK AT A BANANA IN THE SAME WAY AGAIN

SERBIAN TRANSLATION HERE

Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. 
Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world`s leading athletes. 
But energy isn`t the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

DEPRESSION
According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

ANEMIA
High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production fo hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

BLOOD PRESSURE
This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make offiicial claims for the fruit`s ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

BRAIN POWER
200 students at a Twickenham school (England) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

CONSTIPATION
High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives. 

HANGOVERS
One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

HEARTBURN
Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

MORNING SICKNESS
Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

MOSQUITO BITES
Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation. 

NERVES
Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system. 
Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort foodlike chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady. 

ULCERS
The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronical cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Many other cultures see bananas as a `cooling` fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand, for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, ti has FOUR TIMES the protein, TWICE the carbohydrates, THREE TIMES the phosphorus, FIVE TIME the vitamin A and iron and TWICE the other vitamins and mineral. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around. So, maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say: `A BANANA a day, keeps the doctor away!`

NAKON ŠTO PROČITATE OVO VIŠE NIKADA NEĆETE GLEDATI NA BANANE ISTIM OČIMA

ENGLISH TRANSLATION HERE

Banane sadrže tri prirodna šećera – saharozu, fruktozu i glukozu u kombinaciji sa vlaknima. Banana vam pruža iznenadan i znatan nalet energije koji vas može držati u formi duže vremena. Istraživanja su pokazala da samo dve banane mogu da vam obezbede dovoljno energije potrebne za 90minutno naporno vežbanje. Nije ni čudo što je banana prvi izbor svetskih atletičara.

Ali energija nije jedino što nam banana pruža. Ona takođe može da nam pomogne u oporavku ili sprečavanju mnogih bolesti, što je čini obaveznim sastojkom u našoj svakodnevnoj ishrani.

Banana nam pomaže kod sledećih bolesti:

DEPRESIJA

Prema nedavnom istraživanju sprovedenom među ljudima koji pate od depresije, mnogi su se osećali mnogo bolje nakon što su pojeli bananu. To je zbog toga što banana sadrži triptofan, vrstu proteina koji telo pretvara u serotonin, poznat po tome što opušta telo i popravlja raspoloženje, generalno se osećate mnogo srećnije.

Savet:

Zaboravite na tablete – jedite bananu! Vitamin B6 koji se nalazi u banani reguliše nivo šećera u krvi, što može uticati na bolje raspoloženje.

ANEMIJA

S obzirom da je bogata gvožđem, banana podstiče stvaranje hemoglobina u krvi i tako pomaže kod slučajeva anemije.

KRVNI PRITISAK

Ovo jedinstveno tropsko voće je izuzetno bogato kalijumom a opet ima vrlo malo soli, što ga čini savršenm za borbu protiv visokog krvnog pritiska. Američka organizacija za hranu i lekove je dozvolila industiji banana da zvanično objave podatak da banana ima sposobnost da smanji rizik od visokog pritiska i šloga.

HRANA ZA MOZAK

U pokušaju da povećaju sposobnosti svog mozga 200 studenata jedne škole u Engleskoj je jelo banane za doručak, užinu i ručak, što im je pomoglo da polože svoje ispite. Istraživanja su pokazala da voće koje je bogato kalijumom može da pomogne učenicima u učenju i održavanju pažnje.

ZATVOR

S obzirom da je banana bogata vlaknima, ukoliko se uvrsti u svakodnevnu ishranu, ona će pomoći da se normalizuje rad creva i da se problem zatvora reši bez uzimanja laksativa.

MAMURLUK

Jedan od najbržih načina da se prevaziđe mamurluk je da se napravi banana milkšejk i zasladi medom. Banana umiruje stomak a uz pomoć meda  stvara nizak nivo šećera u krvi, dok mleko umiruje i rehidrira čitav organizam.

GORUŠICA

Banane imaju prirodan efekat protiv kiselina u telu, pa ako patite od gorušice, pokušajte da jedete bananu za ublažavanje tegoba.

JUTARNJE MUČNINE

Uzimanje banana između obroka pomaže da se održi nivo šećera u krvi i da se izbegnu jutarnje mučnine.

UJED KOMARCA

Pre nego što posegnete za kremom protiv insekata, pokušajte da protrljate mesto ujeda unutrašnjom stranom kore banane. Mnogi ljudi su se uverili da je banana izuzetno delotvorna u smanjenju otoka i iritacije kože.

NERVI

Banane su bogate vitaminom B koji pomaže u smirivanju nervnog sistema.

Imate višak kilograma i pod stresom ste na poslu? Studije na Institutu za psihologiju u Austriji pokazale su da pritisak na poslu dovodi do pretrpavanja hranom kao što su čokolada i čips. Posmatranjem 5000 pacijenata u bolnici, istraživači su otkrili da je su najgojazniji bili oni koji su se bavili nekim stresnim poslom. Kako bismo izbegli panično posezanje za hranom,

u izveštaju se iznosi zaključak da bi trebalo da održavamo nivo šećera u krvi stabilnim tako što bi  na svaka dva sata grickali hranu bogatu ugljenim hidratima.

ULCER

Banana se koristi kao hrana protiv crevnih oboljenja zbog svog mekog sastava i glatkoće. To je jedino sirovo voće koje može da se jede bez opasnosti u hroničnim slučajevima. Banana takođe neutrališe kiselost i smanjuje iritaciju tako što oblaže sluzokožu želuca.

TEMPERATURA

Mnogi narodi smatraju banane voćem koje hladi i koje može sniziti, kako fizičku tako  i emocionalnu, temperaturu kod trudnica. Na Tajlandu, na primer, trudnice jedu banane kako bi bile sigurne da će se njihova beba roditi sa niskom temperaturom.

Dakle, banana je zaista prirodan lek za mnoge bolesti. Kada se uporedi sa jabukom, ona ima četiri puta više  proteina, dva puta više ugljenih hidrata, tri puta više fosfora, pet puta više vitamina A i gvožđa, a dva puta više drugih vitamna i minerala. Takođe je bogata kalijumom i jedna je od najvrednijih namirnica svih vremena. Pa je možda vreme da promenimo onu dobro poznatu izreku tako što ćemo reći: „Banana na dan, doktora iz kuće van!“

TRADITIONAL SERBIAN GRUEL

SERBIAN TRANSLATION HERE

Ingredients:

v 200 g wheat flour

v 50 g of cream cheese

v 50g cheese

v cup milk

Preparation:

Pour the milk in the bowl, add cream cheese and wheat flour. Cook it together for 20min. When it is nearly cooked add the cheese and stir well.

Advice:

Put the wheat flour in cold water to avoid making lumps. It is important to stir and not to change direction while stirring. When it smooth and compact, with no lumps and starts to pull away from the pan, gruel is over. Add cheese when the gruel cools down because the cheese will melt if you add it earlier.

Materijal:

v 200gr pšeničnog brašna

v 50gr kajmaka

v 50gr sira

v Šolja mleka

Priprema:

U posudu sipajte mleko, dodajte kajmak i pšenično brašno. Sve kuvajte 20min. Pred kraj kuvanja dodajte sir i dobro promešajte.

Savet:

Pšenično brašno sipajte u hladnu vodu pa onda stavite sve to da se kuva da se ne bi pojavile grudvice. Važno je stalno mešati i ne menjati pravac prilikom mešanja jer od toga zavisi da li će jelo uspeti. Kada masa postane glatka i kompaktna, bez grudvica i počne da se odvaja od posude cicvara je gotova. Sir dodajte kad se cicvara malo prohladi jer bi se u suprothom istopio. Cicvaru uvek služite toplu.
