Best Answer

Three bananas a day, every day, is probably too much even for an adult.

Bananas are a good source of potassium but too much can upset the sodium and potassium balance in the blood, leading to irregular heart beat and potential cardiac arrest. The kidneys normally eliminate excess sodium or potassium to keep things in balance.

Banana.com says a 9-inch banana contains about 900 mg of potassium, or about 100 mg per inch. The University of Maryland Medical Center (http://www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/potassium-000320.htm) lists the recommended daily intakes of dietary potassium are:

  • Infants birth to 6 months: 500
  • Infants 7 months to 12 months: 700 mg or 18 Meg
  • Children 1 year: 1,000 mg or 26 mEq
  • Children 2 - 5 years: 1,400 mg or 36 mEq
  • Children 6 - 9 years: 1,600 mg or 41 mEq
  • Children over 10 years: 2,000 mg or 51 mEq
  • Adult 2,000 mg or 51 Meq, including for pregnant and nursing women

Ten. One monkey will eat 2 bananas in 5 minutes, so it will eat 4 bananas in 10 minutes. Therefore, 40 divided by 4 will give you the number of monkeys that can eat 40 bananas in 10 minutes - if they all eat consistently at the same rate.


Can you describe the analogy of Buying Green Bananas?

Why are you only allowed to eat 2 bananas a day?

I don't know of any reason why you wouldn't be allowed to eat more than 2 bananas in one day. They don't have any more calories than any other fruit, although many people think they do because they're sort of creamy. The only reason I would never eat more than 2 bananas in one day is that I don't really like bananas that much.
