Yes, green bananas contain resistant starch, which is a type of starch that is not fully broken down and absorbed in the small intestine. As bananas ripen and turn yellow, this resistant starch gets converted into regular starch.
Ripe bananas are typically yellow, although some varieties like plantains may have a different color when ripe. The peel may also have some brown speckles or patches when fully ripe.
Starch in unripe bananas converts to sugars as the fruit ripens, but it also helps to slow down the ripening process by acting as a barrier to the enzyme that breaks down the cell walls in the fruit. This helps maintain the firmness and green color of the banana for a longer period before it starts to soften and turn yellow.
Most fruits do not contain starch but rather natural sugars like fructose and glucose. Starchy fruits like bananas and plantains may contain some starch, but it is typically in smaller amounts compared to other starchy foods like potatoes or grains.
Bananas produce ethylene gas as they ripen, which triggers the breakdown of chlorophyll in the skin, causing it to turn yellow. However, the breakdown of chlorophyll can occur unevenly, leading to some areas still appearing green even as the fruit ripens on the inside.
During the ripening process, the complex carbohydrates in bananas have converted to sugars.
Bananas are a good source of dietary starch. Different types of bananas have different percentages of starch content. As bananas ripen the starch changes to dextrin and glucose. Cooking bananas (plantains) are about 25% starch, which is much more starch that 'eating' bananas have, which can be in the range of 5% to 6% of the edible part of the fruit.

they are ripe in autum

When they are yellow.
If they are damsons and they are ripe(soft) then they are edible.
Bananas are green when not yet ripened, yellow when they are good to eat, and brown/black when they are rotting and going bad.
Ripe bananas reach sweetness, unripe stick a strange flavor to your tongue. Ripe ones are normally yellow with brown spots on the skin. More spots, riper it is. Sometimes, particularly on cold wheather, bananas may get ripe without spots, but all yellow.
Yes. They are a lot better, trust me. When you let the bananas get almost fully browned, it almost doubles the nutrition value in bananas. Ripe bananas, even though they look better than browned bananas, are so unhealthy for you. The amount of sugar that is in a ripe banana is 2 grams, and the amount of sugar that is in a browned banana is less than 1 gram. So, in conclusion, browned bananas are a whole lot better for you than ripe bananas are.
