Green bananas are increasingly appearing on store and market shelves.
And if we have been familiar with ripe fruits for a long time, then in the case of green bananas the question often arises whether it is worth choosing them.
Let's figure out how the two types of fruit differ from each other.
The difference between ripe and green bananas
The riper the banana, the sweeter it is. This happens because inside the fruit, the starch in its composition gradually turns into sugar.
However, our body does the same thing, so this does not mean that ripe fruits are more harmful than their unripe counterparts.
However, green bananas are still healthier than ripe ones due to the fact that they contain more resistant starch.
This substance is necessary when losing weight, since it is what gives you a feeling of satiety.
In addition, unripe bananas are believed to contain more vitamin C and beta-carotene.
At the same time, ripe fruits contain more antioxidants, which help strengthen the immune system.
