According to the researcher, mango contains many nutrients and other bioactive compounds that can provide various health benefits, the Daily Times reported.
"It is high in fibre, vitamins A and C, as well as other minerals. In addition to the positive effects on body fat, blood lipids and glucose, it is not associated with serious side-effects such as negative effects on bone that is linked with the use of rosiglitazone, a drug commonly used to lower blood sugar," he said.
Blood sugar levels at the conclusion of the study were significantly lower than the baseline in both male and female subjects.
These findings are the result of a single study and more research is needed on the effects of mango consumption on human health and reduction in cancer risk.
