Bug Bites: Banana

Close encounters of the buzzing kind are inevitable when you spend time outdoors. But you'll find quick relief in the fruit bowl. With its high antioxidant content banana peel can calm inflamed bug bites, especially itchy mosquito bites.

Try It: Apply the banana peel, fruit-side down, directly on the bite and hold it there until the itching or burning subsides. Enjoy the fruit as a healthy snack.
