The dessert does not contain any sugar at all, because its main ingredient provides enough sweetness: bananas contain three natural sugars, sucrose, fructose and glucose, which provide a quick energy boost that is especially appreciated by athletes. The fruit also contains the precursor of serotonin. Serotonin is known for its relaxing effect, lifts the mood and helps to feel generally happier.
