And some soon-to-be-pregnant women will do anything to have a girl, including cutting out the fruit altogether. A sudy found that there may actually be a little truth to this.
Researchers surveyed 740 women during their first pregnancy and found that those with a diet high in potassium (one of the main vitamins in bananas) were more likely to have a boy.
