Subject: nutritional benefits of eating banana peels
Hello all
We received an urgent request from a magazine reporter who would like to get expert advice on the nutritional benefits of eating banana peels. In the U.S., banana peels are not customarily consumed. If you know of resources to which we can direct the reporter, I would greatly appreciate it.
Best
