Mangoes are very inexpensive right now. Here's a healthy, easy to-pull-together salad using mangoes as the main ingredient.
Mango is rich in nutrients, including vitamin C, vitamin A, folate, and potassium. These nutrients can help support a healthy immune system, promote healthy vision, and maintain healthy blood pressure.
They are rich in dietary fiber, which can help support healthy digestion and prevent constipation. Mango also contains enzymes that can aid in digestion and help break down proteins.
Mangoes contain compounds called polyphenols which may contribute to lowering cholesterol.
Mango is rich in vitamin C, which can help support healthy skin. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that can help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals.
