Don't Throw Away Banana Peel

Bananas are good for your health, as they are a super-food that can help fight many different diseases and ailments. Most of us, after having eaten a banana, will throw away the peel. However, the peel can be very beneficial and should be added to your beauty regime. A banana peel is full of antioxidants, antibacterial, antifungal, and enzymatic properties that can be put to great use. Furthermore, they are high in vitamins B6, B12, magnesium, and potassium. This abundance of nutrients makes them an essential item in your beauty routine.

1. Whiten Teeth
If you want a pearly white smile, do not throw your banana peel away. The peel contains citric acid, which can help get rid of any yellow stains on your teeth.
Furthermore, the peel has plaque-busting salicylic acid that will not damage your tooth enamel and even supports healthy teeth.
Use this simple trick whenever you feel the need to whiten your teeth:
1. Rub the soft inside of a fresh peel on your teeth for around 2 minutes.
2. After you have done this, brush your teeth with toothpaste to remove the residue.
3. Repeat once a day for a couple of weeks to remove the stains.

A banana peel is an excellent way to cure pimples and acne. The reason for this is that the peel acts as a natural exfoliating agent to remove any toxins from pores, which, in turn, treats and reduces the risk of acne. Its abundance of antioxidants also helps to fight the germs that cause acne.
1. Wash your skin with cold water, then pat dry with a towel.
2. Massage the affected area with the inside of a banana peel for around 5 minutes.

4. Repeat this procedure 3 or 4 times a day.


4. Reduce Blemishes
The vitamins A, B, C, and E that are present in banana peels help to treat skin blemishes.

2. Leave the remaining fiber on your skin for around 20 minutes.
3. Repeat 2-3 times a day until the blemish has gone.


5. Remove Splinters
Banana peels can be very effective when it comes to removing splinters. This is because the enzymes present in the peel help to soften the skin, which makes it easier to pluck the splinter out. They also help to heal the wound.

2. Place it over the splinter (with the inside against the skin).
