1.The eatable portion is considered the part of the food which is ingested after taking away the waste. In the case of banana, the eatable portion corresponds the weight in gr. after taking off the peel. So, out of a banana which weighs about 175 gr., the eatable portion is 66gr. per 100 aprox., which corresponds 115 gr. of the banana.

2 The average nutritional composition was calculated having on account the composition food charts and the analysis of the Canarian banana. The interchange of these chart lists are based on unifying the foods according to their nutrient contents (proteins, lypidous an carbohydrates) and energy (Kcal), considering the usual measures and weights. The quantities expressed above, refer to gr. of fruit)eatable portion).
