Wellington, April 6: Suffering from sleep apnoea? Well, the humble banana may prove to be your ultimate saviour, according to a study.
Obstructive sleep apnoea sufferers experience recurrent choking when the throat closes during sleep. Therefore, it is a potentially life-threatening disorder.
However, an Australian research team has found that downing an unconventional nightcap of a banana smoothie may help keep sufferers'' throats open and reduce the risk of choking.
