The Goods on Mango!

There are plenty of reasons why you should be incorporating more of this brightly coloured fruit into your diet. Mangoes have been known to help clear your skin, keep diabetes under control, aid digestion and support weight loss. Just one cup of mango contains high levels of the antioxidants vitamin A and C as well as vitamin B6 which helps keep our hearts healthy. Chop it up in smoothies and salsas or blend them with yogurt and freeze for a delicious summer snack.
