Exploring the Mood-Boosting Potential of Bananas: A Comprehensive Review
Keywords:
anxiety, banana, depression
Abstract
Food, like bananas, can be used as a depression therapy. Bananas are known for their high tryptophan content. Tryptophan is the precursor of the neurotransmitter serotonin which is closely related to the pathophysiology of anxiety and depression. The purpose of this comprehensive review is to examine the available research on the link between banana consumption and mood. Screening of original articles or reviews on the Google Scholar database, Science Direct, MedLine (PubMed), Scielo, and Proquest with the keywords "banana", "Musa", "depression", and "anxiety" published no later than March 31, 2023. After selecting from 8,469 articles, 18 studies were selected. From the experimental trial articles obtained (9 studies), most reported positive antidepressant and antianxiety effects, but not all of them were significant. The results of the three clinical trials were also inconsistent. Bananas have antianxiety and antidepressant properties, but the scientific literature on their efficacy is limited. Therefore, more evidence is needed to justify its use as a primary or adjunctive treatment for depression and anxiety.
