I know they have fructose in them but somehow I have never felt compelled to eat more than one. The reason I eat them at all is that after a resistance workout I try to get my protein meal in. I eat 200-300 calories of skinless baked chicken breasts. That's close to zero carbs. If I don't eat a banana asap, my system just can't covert the protein fast enough and I feel depleted. I think getting the glucose back in the system is what I need but haven't found anything fast enough without fructose.
