banana is said to be bad for an empty stomach as much as oranges, lemons, passion fruit are. but i wonder how it gets into this category.

The other fruits you listed tend to be acid and as such some people have problems eating them on an empty stomach. I know of no reason to include bananas in this group however.

Wow! I always eat bananas on an empty stomach. I've never heard that before! Infact, I think I eat oranges on an empty stomach too. I'm screwed . . .

I thought bananas was one of the perfect fruits,although I read once that they could sometimes cause constipation. so maybe on an empty stomach they could bind you up. I just bought some today,eat 1or 2 every day.

I have never heard that and I wonder why someone would think that's so?
The only reason I can think of is that bananas have potassium and are high in sugar, but neither would be a problem for a reasonably healthy person.

I've never heard this. I eat a banana for breakfast almost everyday and my stomach is fine.

She needs to see a psychiatrist. Seriously. She has an eating disorder and it won't go away on it's own. Youshould talk to her parents or a school counselor or teacher. She needs help ASAP! Does she even see she has a problem or does she think what she's doing is okay?

I never heard that about bananas. The other citrus stuff is because its acidity.
