Hi all,

Thanks for the more scientific explanations of why bananas work. My Mum has blood pressure and heart problems and the doc put her on beta-blockers but they made her feel so sick she was starting to say that life wasn't worth living. (She looked terrible at the wedding - I've never seen her look so awful and still be walking around, and she has had more than her fair share of health troubles - more than 3 people's fair share, really). So she finally convinced the doc that she wasn't going to stay on the beta blockers and she is getting some of her sparkle back.

She is also diabetic and there are sugars in bananas but I think it might be worth getting her to try it out and just adjust her insulin if it affects her diabetic sugar readings). Natural sources might be better for her than chemical sources.

'Spaw, I don't need bananas now that I am married, but tell me about how you use them. *BG* or actually, *BWG* (big wicked grin)

And life is pretty good, marriage-wise at the moment. I think I picked the right one.
