Green Banana Flour

Mixes well. Mild flavor. Adds a light sweetness. I will purchase again.

Although this product doesn't list it it is excellent for medicinal use for people who have had their colons removed. Green bananas help slow everything . So we use it on oatmeal every morning for my husband and it helps him absorb his medications that he has to have for his heart as well as give him plenty of time to function and do things without always having to run to the bathroom. It has a great taste when mixed in with the oatmeal. Although we have put it in an instant breakfast drink too and it's helped. So for those of you that may have physical issues that are looking for something to slow the gut down this is a great product and it's organic and we've been using it for 3 years.

Works as described and as desired.

I'm currently doing a low fodmap diet, which includes very small amounts of resistant starches. Resistant starches are converted to small chain fatty acids (SCFA) in our large intestine and they are essential to gut health. After learning about SCFA I ordered both banana flour and butyrate in capsule form. I was worried that the banana flour was going to upset my SIBO but after a week of using 1 Tbsp in my daily smoothie I have not had a bad reaction (no bloating, pain, or burps). I have taken the butyrate capsules only twice so far and have not reacted badly to them either. I've also used the banana flour in a batch of muffins (ratio of one part banana flour to 3 parts gluten free flours) and the muffins turned out delicious. More detail: I have yet to be able to find a reliable source for recommended daily intake, recommended duration for supplementing, or how to know exactly how many grams of resistant starches you're ingesting in the banana flour. Based off the info I did find, and my super awesome calculations, I believe that 1 Tbsp of banana flour contains 3g (3000mg) of resistant starches.

Great product terrible price. This same item costs $7 at local co-op style grocery.

Good healthy food

I like it

Yes I really wanted to enjoy this product however even after 1 tablespoon of this in my smoothie such horrific gas pains and gas I had to make sure I was by myself for the next 24 hours how ridiculous! Now I know why this happened. I looked up green banana f l o u r and learned that it is full of inulin which is indeed a resistant carbohydrate and is truly not digested and I avoid inulin like the plague! I had no idea. 48 hours later I am comfortable again and I can be around other people. There was no diarrhea however to blow up like the Hindenburg and to make so much noise I could have easily embarrassed myself in public situations not to mention private situations. Sure I believe that this banana product has magical powers don't we all? At what cost though? If you need some soluble fiber that acts as a Prebiotic go grab yourself some Acacia or Metamucil but not this stuff it's lethally gassy. Kind of reminded me of a lestra you know that first fake artificial fat that everybody had such crazy diarrhea on? Sure you believe the hype at first but then you try it for yourself. This was only my experience and you'll have your own but this was my experience. I'm not disappointed my doctor says I'm a healthy person enough with the super foods. The more I read the more I read that there are no superfoods every food has its benefits and some foods have side effects like well this one. Not to mention the smell and taste were more than earthy and rather unpleasant. Nobody paid me to write this review of course I am a real person and yes gas prices are rising a lot in Michigan but I don't need my gas price to rise if you know what I mean. Decide for yourself but before you put a half of cookie sheet worth of these brownies into your body think twice no think three times.

Nice!

ジュースに ほんの少し入れて飲んでます。

Dislike

香りがふわっとするぐらいでバナナの味はしないのかなと思っていたのですが思ったよりバナナ味でした。 香りのほうは最初びっくりしましたがすぐ慣れました。 パンケーキにして食べていますが食感はモチモチで味のないバナナを食べてる感じです。 メープルシロップよりオリーブオイルで食べたほうが美味しかったです。 お腹の調子は食べたその日にお通じがよくなるぐらいバッチリになりました。 色味がちょっと気になるので次は国産グリーンバナナ粉も試してみたいです。

Good product but when it was delivered, the BB date was already passed. I guess it's still fine to consume it but it's probably lost some of its freshness, quality and nutritional value, which is unfortunate. I'm not going to use 400g of green banana flour within 1 month!
