The Surprising Reason Why You Should Never Eat a Banana at Breakfast
It's the most portable and easy-to-eat fruit on those mornings when we're rushing out the door... but it turns out it's a terrible choice for you!
Why Should You Never Eat Bananas at Breakfast?
If you are used to grabbing a banana as your on-the-go breakfast when you don't have time to sit down, we're about to break some terrible news to you: it's really not a good option if you're trying to watch your weight.
