ABSTRACT

This study entitled “Blue Banana Puto” is being done by the researchers to try

whether the Blue Ternate and Banana Flour is capable for making puto. According to the

study, Blue Ternate can cure wound, skin disease, insect bites, diabetes, cough, cold,

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

This chapter presents the background of the study, research problem, hypothesis,

significance of the study, scope and limitation, and concludes with definition of terms.

Background of the Study

Banana ( Musa Acuminata Balbasiana ) is one of the most important commercial

tropical fruits traded. Banana is a type of fruit from herbaceous plants of the genus musa.

Bananas are one if the most widely consumed fruits in the world for good reasons. Eating

them could help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of cancer and asthma. Banana

flour is high on essential minerals and vitamins including zinc, Vit E, magnesium,

manganese. But for now the researchers conduct a product which is called Blue Banana

Puto. In this study the researchers use Blue Ternate that helps improves blood circulation,

and helps prevent hair loss and graying hair. It can also help treat urinary problems,

detoxifies the whole body, as well as enhances the immune system.

Statement of the Problem

The study of our product which is Blue Banana Puto. Specifically, it seeks to

answer the question:

1.Is Blue Banana Puto affordable to the consumer?

Hypothesis

The Blue Banana Puto is not affordable to the consumer

 10

Significance of the study

For the Farmers- It will help them find another source of income and will help

them with their lives.

For the Industry- They can use it to make a business and it can also help their

health.

Scope and Delimitation

The investigatory project will be conducted by the researchers of Tinago National

High School. The experiment study entitled “Blue Banana Puto” is only unripe bananas

will be used.

Definition and Terms

Banana Flour- this refers to the bananas been recycled

Blue Ternate or Butterfly pea- is an herbaceous medicinal plant used to treat brain

related disorders and dementia

Puto- is made from rice soaked overnight to allow it to ferment slightly

Saba (Musa acuminate)- is a triploid hybrid (ABB)banana cultivar originating

from the Philippines. It is primarily a cooking banana, though it can also be eaten raw.

CHAPTER II

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND RELATED STUDY

This chapter provides

Review of Related Study

These plant materials have been extensively used in indigenous system of

medicine which is mention in the Ayurveda and other Indian literature. It is scientifically

evaluated for anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, analgesic, larvicidal, insecticidal,

antimicrobial, anxiolytic, anti-depressant, hepatoprotective, tranquilizing and sedative

property. This paper reviews plant distribution, agronomic characteristics,

pharmacognostical description, ornamental value, traditional properties and uses,

phytocontituents, pharmacological activity of butter -fly pea.

Fibre rich unripe banana flour contains resistant starch, a type of fibre that may

aid in managing weight and 2 diabetes. A consumer are unlikely to eat sufficient

amounts of vegetables and other fibre rich foods directly, the supplementation of Blue

Banana Puto using unripe banana flour can play important role in achieving health

benefits.
 13

Review of Related Literature

Butterfly pea is a multi-purpose forage legume. It provides bioactive

compounds for medicinal use and it is also an ornamental plant and cover crop. It is

adaptable to a wide range of temperature, rainfall and altitude. Butterfly pea, a highly

palatable forage legume is generally preferred by livestock other over other legumes.

It has thin stem and large leaves, nil blot and non toxic which make it deal for forage and

hay making. It is vigorous growth, tolerance to frost and dry periods and heavy grazing

pressures make this suitable for waste land development. Production and utilization of

this legume for animals production will provide adequate nutrition and also reduce

grazing pressure on natural ranges|(Gomez and kalamani, 2003).
