"Whether you like your bananas slightly green or freckly, they all come with triple levels of mood-boosting powers," they said in their book 'Eat Better Live Longer - Understand What Your Body Needs To Stay Healthy'.

"They are good sources of carbohydrates [fuel for the brain and muscles], and of tryptophan and vitamin B6 [both of which are needed for production of feel-good chemicals].

"Whats more, bananas improve digestion and may help regulate blood pressure.

"Bananas will ripen at home - if you want to speed up the process, keep them in a bunch or with other fruits."

Eating bananas could also make you feel fuller for longer, as theyre rich in a fibre called pectin, the nutritionists added.

Everyone should aim to eat between three and four bananas every week, they said.

Raw bananas provide the highest nutrient benefits.

While everyone has their own preference for whether they like their bananas yellow or green, their nutrients vary depending on their ripeness.
