Bass girl? i play bass too. 

Bananas are still better than cookies even with the carbs it holds. Don't forget there is a lot more to a banana than just its carbs. And they are natural which cookies aren't.  

Yeah, I know. I am still working out this 'healthy diet' thing. I'm so used to overloading on carbs that I would really like to cut down. Yes, I'm a bassist. Haven't played out since pregnancy, but once upon a time... 

Muscles are fueled primarily on carbs when you workout, so banana's are one of the best sources of fast acting high glycemic carbs around. They also contain potassium and other nutrients. They are great for after a workout. Much better than a cookie, lol! But google low glycemic fruits to see which on lower on the carb/glycemic scale. 

Thanks! 

As well as a very good source of potassium, they contain vitamin B6, vitamin C. They are one of the favourite fruits for athletes as they quickly replace electrolytes... They also contain calcium, which is good for strong bones. A banana mixed with low fat yoghurt and protein powder is a great post workout mix - just wizz it in a blender. 

Bananas are packed full of nutrients. 

Thanks guys! I feel much better about my "I need to eat something right now" choice.  

I eat bananas even on a lower carb diet especially whenI have been doing heavy cardio. Such as snowshoeing, cross country skiing. Hey, It sure is better than a snickers bar or a bag of chips. As skinny pointed out chock full of good stuff. I don't think twice about eating one for breakfast a couple times per week. With greek yogurt!  

Not all carbs are created equal !!!
