8. Unripe bananas can improve insulin sensitivity
A major risk factor for many health issues (type 2 diabetes included) is insulin resistance. Luckily, certain foods such as unripe bananas can improve insulin sensitivity. According to several studies, about 20 grams of resistance starch consumed daily could improve insulin sensitivity by even 45 percent in a couple of weeks.
Since unripe bananas are excellent sources of resistant starch, try to consume them more often, especially when you’re struggling to improve your insulin sensitivity.
Important info! Avoid trans fats as much as possible when you want to keep your insulin blood levels in check.
