according to an acupuncturist, Bob Dorris DOM (Docor of Oriental Medicine) said if we want to follow CHinese Dietary Principle, banana can cause constipation and also cure constipation.
in chinese culture, we always said "cold" means having too little energy--warm for our digestive system in order to propoerly digest food. therefore, too little energy to help you move your stools.
in contrary, when we said "heat" in our body means that we have shown up the dryness of our intestines and dry stools. therefore, you will get constipation too.
the reason for somebody said banana is useful for constipation becasue it is said to be a "cold" food. in other words, it will help us to "cold" down your intestines if our body is belonging to "heat". after eating banana will get a smoother bowel movement.
on the other hand, according to Bob Dorris, if our bory is belong to "cold" then we might not eat too much of banana becasue we will get diarrhea eventually. it is a disease condition which menas that our digest system cannot process fluids properly and the fluids which we are supposed to absorb now is leaving with the stools.
there are also some recommendation from Bob Dorris.
--fresh and lightly cooked vegetable but no raw
--eat some beans
and so on
erm...i am wondering whether i am "heat" or "cold"
actually i have tired to eat banana before but it seemed like not really have any effect for me. i also dont know why. but i will try it again.
