Researchers in Taiwan ­discovered banana peel extract can ease Depression as it is rich in serotonin, the mood-balancing chemical. The skin was also
found to be good for eyes, as it contains the antioxidant lutein which ­protects eye cells from exposure to ultraviolet light — a leading cause of cataracts.

HOW TO EAT IT: The research team advises boiling the peel for ten ­minutes and drinking the cooled water or putting it through a juicer and drinking the juice.

(or what about a smoothie?)

consider this -don't know if it's true,but makes perfect sense

according to research from Japan.

Kiwi fruit
he hairy skin of the kiwi fruit is high in antioxidants a
nd thought to have ­anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory
and anti-­allergenic properties, says Dr Glenville.

‘The skin contains three times the anti­oxidants
of the pulp; it also fights off bugs such
as Staphylococcus and E-coli, which are responsible
for food poisoning.’



HOW TO EAT IT: If regular kiwi skin is too tart for you,
opt for ‘gold’ kiwi fruit, which have sweeter, less hairy skins, but with the same benefits. Use the skin if you are juicing the fruit.
