Gonja (type of banana in Uganda) is one of Africa’s oldest plantains. It is a type of banana, quite similar to matooke and the yellow banana but with less sugar. Gonja being a potassium rich food, it’s useful in lowering high blood pressure.

Eating it for a week will keep you healthy. It is rich in vitamin A, and vitamin B6 that boosts immunity and Vitamin C which is useful in the production of collagen.

Gonja also has thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine (B6), folate (B9) zinc, and protein.

It can also improve body flexibility by energizing the body by reducing fatigue and acting as an anti-depressant. The plantation still supports brain function, boosting memory and checking nervous system disorders and anemia.
