While bananas are beneficial for bowel movements, overeating can lead to hyperkalemia, as highlighted by Dr. Lin Xuanren from Asia University Hospital. He shared a case of a 60-year-old woman who ate a banana daily for bowel movement but collapsed and was found to have irregular heartbeats due to hyperkalemia. Dr. Lin advises on the recommended daily potassium intake, emphasizing that excessive banana consumption can be life-threatening, especially for kidney disease patients.
