Benefits of mango juice

Apart from that beautiful yellow cover and amazing taste, mango has a lot of health benefits to offer. Find out the major benefits of making mango juice part of your regular diet and overall health.

High in vitamins: If you’re looking to stave off illness, mango juice has you covered. A cup of mango contains anywhere from 60 to 100 per cent of your daily recommended vitamin C, and about 40-50 per cent of your daily recommended vitamin A. Together, these vitamin complexes also benefit teeth and gums, eye function, neurologic function and better nutrient absorption.

Mangoes also contain folate — about 20 per cent of your daily required intake — which supports your cardiovascular system. Mango fruit contains fairly high levels of fibre, but mango juice might have slightly less fibre. Still, the fibre can support healthy digestion.

Stable blood sugar: Because mangoes and mango juice are so high in natural sugars and fibre, it can work to sustain healthy blood sugar levels. Consider the way you feel in the late afternoon — tired and worn out. This can be a sign of low blood sugar as a result of poor dietary choices or not eating often enough.

Drive and performance: One of the known benefits of mango juice is the mango’s known ability to help increase sex drive and performance. It’s still unknown just how mangoes can boost a lagging sex drive, but it’s thought that the fruit’s high amount of vitamin E might be what does the trick.

Improved libido: What’s more, eating a diet high in whole, healthy foods can also help improve libido and performance; so mangoes can further add to a better sex life through a healthier diet overall.

Cancer properties: Because mangoes and mango juice are so high in antioxidants, they’re both widely known for their cancer-fighting properties. Mango can work to limit inflammatory characteristics in cancerous cells; while the antioxidant compounds readily available in mangoes have been known to have a positive effect on colon and prostate cancers, as well as leukemia.
