Banana delivers 80.9 calories per gram of protein. Compare this against leaner protein sources if you are optimizing your protein-to-calorie efficiency.
The general guideline is 0.8g per kg for sedentary adults (roughly 50g/day), 1.2 to 1.6g per kg for active individuals (roughly 100g/day), and up to 2g per kg for athletes (roughly 150g/day). Banana at 1.3g per 1 medium banana can be a meaningful part of reaching those targets.
