I have always loved the taste of mangoes, did you know that not only are they juicy and delicious, they are also jam-packed with healthy vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Nutritionally speaking, one cup of diced mango contains approximately 100 calories, 1 gram of protein, 0.5 grams of fat, 25 grams of carbohydrates (23 grams sugar and 3 grams fiber), 100% of the daily need of vitamin C, 35% of vitamin A, 20% of folate, 10% of vitamin B-6 and 8% of vitamin K and potassium. Mangoes also provide copper, calcium and iron to the diet and antioxidants such as zeaxanthin and beta-carotene.

Check out the article and see why eating a mango a day could be very good for you. I suffer with dry skin and brittle hair. A mango contains enough vitamin A to help with those conditions. I will keep you all informed on my journey. I will be trying this for 2 weeks.
