8. Excellent source of Vitamin C

Most people double up on oranges, other citrus fruits, and bananas during cold and flu season to build up their body's immune system.  The Vitamin C contained within these fruits helps the body fight off cold and flu germs.

Plantains contain more Vitamin C than bananas and represent an excellent opportunity to provide a nutritional variety to your every day diet.  If you enjoy trying different cuisines, plantains are prominent in Latin, African, and Caribbean cuisine.  Enjoy dishes you may have never had before while fighting infectious agents and harmful oxygen-free radicals.
