What this means for your health

What is in it

A 100 g serving of raw banana contains 89 kcal of energy. It provides 1.09 g protein, 0.33 g total fat (0.112 g saturated), 22.84 g carbohydrates, and 12.23 g total sugars. Fiber is 2.6 g. Key minerals include 358 mg potassium, 27 mg magnesium, 5 mg calcium, and 0.26 mg iron. Vitamins are 8.7 mg vitamin C, 3 µg vitamin A, and small amounts of zinc and folate.

What it means for your health

The natural sugars give quick energy, while the fiber may help keep digestion regular. Potassium supports normal heart function, and vitamin C is an antioxidant that may aid immune health. Because the fat and sodium are low, bananas fit well in a balanced diet. Studies suggest that high added‑sugar intake is linked to heart disease, but the sugars in whole fruit are naturally occurring.

Good to know

One medium banana (about 118 g) is a common serving. Bananas are low in saturated fat and sodium. They can be eaten fresh, sliced, or mashed in recipes. This is general education, not medical advice.
