Brought to the United States in 1979, the Brazilian Dwarf banana is a short, plump fruit with a slightly firm texture that offers a silky mouthfeel. Besides, this fruit is superiorly sweet, but balanced with a hint of tart green flavors. It is worth noting that this banana variety is an excellent source of potassium, vitamins B and C, fiber, and magnesium. The Brazilian Dwarf banana is also more calorie dense than most other fruits, making it an extremely efficient and sustainable small meal. Furthermore, it is an excellent source of the amino acid tryptophan as well as vitamin B6, which in conjunction helps the body produce serotonin in the brain.
