8 unusual uses for bananas

1. Moisturize dry skin. Not getting enough hydration from your lotion? Simply smash a banana into a bowl and smooth it on your skin. (Caution: Be careful not to get the sugary fruit in your eyes.) Leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes. Wash it off with lukewarm water and then follow with a cold splash of water to lock in moisture. Your dry skin will instantly feel softer.

2. Get rid of oily skin. Try whipping up a shine-reducing mask by mixing one ripe banana and two teaspoons of lemon juice. The acids found in the lemon juice will break down the oil, while the vitamin C in the banana will control future oil production.

3. Remedy dry hair and an itchy scalp.  Similar to a banana facial mask, the oils and potassium found in the fruit can work wonders for the health of your scalp and strands. Break out your blender and toss in two overripe bananas, one avocado and yogurt. Apply the creamy mixture to your scalp and wait at least 20 minutes before rinsing out with warm water.

4. Fight wrinkles. You can use this same combination for an anti-aging face mask. Bananas and avocados contain vitamin E, which is known to reduce the appearance of fine lines and prevent age spots from forming.

5. Slough away dead skin cells. Keep your skin soft to the touch all year round by doing a weekly scrub made out of bananas, oatmeal and coconut milk. The grainy oats are a less abrasive alternative to sugar, and the coconut milk will restore a radiant glow to your skin.

6. Reduce puffy eyes. I've been told by medical experts that eating a banana will reduce puffy eyes, as the potassium helps to counter salt intake that lead to fluid retention. But rubbing pureed bananas underneath the eyes gets the job done, too.

7. Treat acne-prone skin.  There's power in the banana peel! Before heading to bed, rub the inside of the peel along your face. Wash your face in the morning. Repeat these steps at least once a day for one week, and your pimples should be gone. If you notice further skin irritation or breakouts, stop immediately and consult a doctor.

8. Soften cracked heels. Apply the pulp of two to three bananas to the soles of your feet, and the gooey mixture will penetrate deep to stave off dryness. No more rips into your tights!

Ah yes, Ray Comfort and Kurt Cameron.  Two bible thumpers with the combined IQ of a dead mosquito.  Now lets get a different, more scientific, take on this "God creating bananas" business.

Origin of species - Science Fail

Read somewhere , where a woman rushed to the doctor in panic
" Doc I found a postage stamp in my vagina" 
After an examination , the doctor smiled " don't worry dear  , it is only a banana sticker"
