Delicious Mangoes



Mangoes are my favorite and they are delicious. Some interesting facts about mangoes:
1. Mangoes are an excellent source of vitamins C and A, both important antioxidant nutrients. Vitamin C promotes healthy immune function and collagen formation. Vitamin A is important for vision and bone growth.
2. Mangoes are a good source of dietary fiber. Diets low in fat and high in fiber-containing grain products, fruits, and vegetables may be associated with a reduced risk of some types of cancer.
3. Mangoes contain over 20 different vitamins and minerals.
