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
