I eat a banana every day just because they're so easy to grab on the go. I wouldn't worry too much about the carbs because they have so much nutrience... although I don't know about having 5 a day Major

Fructose isnt a real desirable carb, since fructose fills liver glycogen, not muscle glycogen, but no one can deny the effects of potassium.

Strawberries or blueberries would be a much better alternative. Bananas have the one of the highest GI of any other fruits.

Do not knock the bannana. Gorillas live of them and look how strong they are. You should consume something from the jungle group every day.
