Oatmeal is known to be a low calorie food and it’s on the short list for the highest protein levels of any grain. It stabilizes blood sugar and reduces risk of diabetes (type 2). Oatmeal helps to improve your bad cholesterol levels (without affecting your good cholesterol). Contains lignans which protect against heart disease and cancer. Oatmeal has plenty of antioxidants and it also improves your immune system and protects your heart. As a plus it tastes good also. 

Bananas on the other hand are very low in saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium. They are also a good source of dietary fiber, vitamin C, potassium and manganese, and a very good source of vitamin B6.
