What is a mango?

Mangoes are considered by many as the king of fruits. Low in calories yet high in nutrients, they contain vitamins C, A, B, and K; dietary fiber, potassium, and other vitamins and minerals. In fact, one cup of sliced mango meets 70% of the Vitamin C we need daily (RDI)! They have antioxidants that boost immunity. They also aid in digestion, gut health, and the care of skin, eyes, and hair.

There are many mango varieties, but the Philippine mango (locally known as the “Carabao Mango”) is known around the world for its tangy sweetness, soft almost buttery texture, and thin peel. The Carabao mango can also be eaten unripe, when they are still green. Filipinos often eat this sour green mangoes with rock salt or fish paste.
