7. Bananas can make you feel full for longer

Found in unripe bananas, resistant starch (a type of indigestible carb) acts like the soluble fiber in the body. The greener the banana, the high it scores when it comes to resistant starch content. However, it doesn’t go the same for ripe bananas. Ripe bananas contain lower amounts of this type of indigestible carb.
