The sample in this study were 15 people with a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using the observation sheet and analyzed using the paired sample test with a short significance of p(α) = 0.05. The results of the analysis showed that bananas were effective in reducing blood pressure in pregnant women with a value of p=0.000. because the value of p = 0.000 < 0.05 this means that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Thus there is an effect of giving bananas to reducing diastolic blood pressure in pregnant women it can be uses as an alternative to overcome the occurrence of hypertension in pregnancy.
