Health Benefits
Low in fat, sodium, sugar, cholesterol and calories. Bananas are an excellent source of potassium and fiber that keep the heart healthy. A power packed food, bananas are a mainstay for a successful women’s fitness regimen. Whole wheat bread is best to use because it is higher in fiber than white bread and contains less sugar. Milk provides calcium and the eggs are a good source of protein, while the orange juice gives us that wonderful vitamin C, responsible for boosting the immune system.
