Last week, Pope Francis and church officials encouraged everyone to consume less and think more about our impact on the environment.</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
It’s a timely warning because the next six months will be critical to our future.</div>

Ahead of a series of major events later this year, The Foundation for Deep Ecology and the Population Media Center released a collection that illustrates the devastating effects of out-of-control growth and waste, and it’s breathtaking.</div>
<div class="" dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
“This is an issue that people care about, and oftentimes it’s just not discussed by mainstream media,” Missie Thurston, director of marketing and communications at the Population Media Center, told <i style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Mic</i>.</div>
<div class="" style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
It’s difficult to always know the impacts of our daily choices, like the real effect of buying a bottled water or an extra TV or laptop. With 220,000 more people on the planet every day, and the average person generating over 4 pounds of waste a day — an almost 60% increase since 1960 — the impact of that growth and change in behavior is rarely seen like this.</div>

This is interesting. After reading this, you’ll never look at a banana in the same way again.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
Bananas contain three natural sugars – sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world’s leading athletes.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />But energy isn’t the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">DEPRESSION</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />PMS:<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Forget the pills – eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">ANEMIA</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />BLOOD PRESSURE:<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit’s ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">BRAIN POWER</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />200 students at a Twickenham school ( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">CONSTIPATION</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">HANGOVERS</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">HEARTBURN</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">MORNING SICKNESS</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />MOSQUITO BITES:<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">NERVES</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system..<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort foodlike chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">ULCERS</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chroniclercases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #252324; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">TEMPERATURE CONTROL</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Many other cultures see bananas as a ‘cooling’ fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has FOUR TIMES the protein, TWICE the carbohydrate, THREE TIMES the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals.. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, ‘A BANANA a day keeps the doctor away!’</div>
