The mango is a powerhouse in fighting against free radicals that cause cancer. One small mango provides a quarter of your recommended daily allowance of vitamin C, two-thirds of your daily quota of vitamin A, with an abundance of vitamin E and fiber. They are also rich in vitamin K, phosphorous, magnesium, potassium and beta-carotenes. Mangoes are also noted as being a “high volume” food, meaning you get a lot of food for only 135 calories. [1]
Stock up on your antioxidants and go grab some mangoes. They make an excellent refreshing snack during your day!
Express your love today!
