Nendra Pazham, also known as Nendran Banana, is a nutrient-rich fruit native to India, particularly popular in the southern regions like Kerala. Distinguished by its elongated shape and vibrant yellow skin, this banana is widely used in traditional Kerala dishes such as chips and steamed desserts. Rich in dietary fiber, potassium, and vitamins like B6 and C, Nendra Pazham supports digestion, promotes heart health, and boosts immunity. Its natural sugars provide a quick energy source, making it ideal for active lifestyles, while antioxidants contribute to overall wellness. However, its high glycemic index means it should be consumed in moderation by those monitoring blood sugar levels. Whether eaten raw, boiled, or fried, Nendra Pazham offers a delicious and versatile addition to a balanced diet, celebrated both for its health benefits and its role in traditional South Indian cuisine.
