Fruits And Health

I guess for most folks, eating fruits has a direct connection with health is a well accepted fact. There are so much research been done into Food, Fruits and Vegetables that there is an explosion of information out there in the internet. However a friend sent me something rather interesting. There was an old article by David Bjerkelie, published in Time Magazine back in 2003 that connects how the shape of the fruit has a bearing on a particular organ that looks like the fruit! Take a look and see how amazing is Nature!

When you look at a sliced Carrot, don’t you think it resembles the human eye-balls? So it seems carrots are are good for your eyes or eye sight!


These Kidney Beans resembles the Kidneys! It seems that Kidney Beans help to maintain kidney functions.

A sliced Tomato showing 4 chambers and red, resembles the human heart which has 4 chambers too! Tomatoes are good for the heart.

The Walnut when cracked open, looks like the human brain! Two hemispheres, cerebrums and cerebellumns and the folds the neo-cortex. Walnuts help to produce neuron transmitters for brain function.

Celery looks like sticks and it resembles the human bone! It seems that celery contains 23% Sodium and our bones are 23% sodium! Eating Celery gives us bone mass.


Avocardos and Pears are good for the womb and cervix for females and don’t you think they look like them too?

There were many other fruits mentioned in the article but the above few proves the point and that is the shape of the fruit has a direct connection as well as health enhancement to the human body organs that resembles it! However it seems the article misses out on one particular fruit!

Yes! the glorious Banana! Going by what was mentioned I wonder what are the benefits a Banana has and whether this correlation still holds! Hemmm! What do you think? Would love to have some comments from my educated friends on this!
