Diabetic yet love bananas? We've got a low GI, low sugar banana that could well be a diabetic's delight. Red Bananas are known to be low on calories while being high on beta-carotene and phenolic compounds. Low sugar content also elongates the shelf life and makes them more alkaline than their yellow counterparts. The Red Banana is a rare, antioxidant-rich variety with a distinctive reddish-purple peel and creamy, pink-tinged flesh. Known for its soft, sweet taste with raspberry-like notes, Red Banana is both exotic and nutritious.
It contains higher levels of Vitamin C and beta-carotene compared to yellow bananas, making it a superfruit for skin health, immunity, and heart wellness.
