5. Helps Treat Depression
On a more serious note, those suffering from depression might find it helpful to keep bananas and their peels lying around. The peels are high in tryptophan, a type of amino acid that converts into serotonin, a mono amino transmitter that helps you feel relaxed. Scrape some of the inner peel into a cup of tea or on toast. If you are suffering from depression, be sure to seek family support and professional help.
