Beneficial Banana Cupcakes


Beneficial Banana Cupcakes

Beneficial: promoting or enhancing well-being
The banana is the worlds favourite fruit. High in potassium, protein, fibre, vitamin A, various vitamin B, folic acid, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, low in calories and sodium! They are also said to help treat anaemia, high blood pressure, constipation, depression, hangovers, heartburn, morning sickness, mosquito bites, nerves, weight problems, PMS, seasonal affective disorder, smoking addiction, stress, strokes, temperatures, ulcers and warts! Truly beneficial. I don't like bananas.
