AYURVEDIC ANALYSIS

Mango's happy flamboyance will brighten your day with its healthy, festive atmosphere. Its sweetness invites happiness and a smile while nourishing qualities authentically replenish your body after summer heat leaves you feeling depleted. When its time to celebrate, mango is a treat that will delight you and your friends.

Next time your relationship feels dry, share a succulent, juicy mango with your honey. It is sure to restore generous love in your relationship, and fill you both with joy & enthusiasm.

Tropical Energy Boost

Mango's lush exuberance comes from its orange color, a sign of beta-carotene. Beta carotene is a tonic for your skin and eyes. It also stimulates your liver & metabolism, giving your energy levels a boost. Sweetness, sourness and beta carotene together make mango a good liver tonic.

From the Poison Ivy Family

Mango is in the same family as cashews, pistachios and poison ivy. The skin of mango provokes allergies in some individuals. While a soft, well-ripened mango is cooling, an unripe, hard to eat mango exhibits the pitta provoking qualities of the poison ivy family - it is hot in nature and can even make your lips go numb.

Cleansing Laxative

The stringy texture of the mango is a sign of insoluble fiber. High fiber, combined with sour & sweet taste makes mango a great laxative. The smooth, fleshy feel of mango (a sign of demulcent quality) soothes inflamed tissues and prevents dry type constipation. Mangoes diuretic qualities can be used to cleanse the kidney while beta carotene's stimulating qualities purify the blood and liver. In pitta individuals with an exhausted liver, mango might overstimulate the liver and make you feel overstimulated. They are high in iron, helpful for anemia.

Food Combining

There is some disagreement whether mangoes can be combined with milk or yogurt as in the popular drink "mango lassi". Although dairy coupled with fruit is technically incompatible, our opinion is that all rules are meant to be broken once in a while. If you find yourself bloated or uncomfortable after a mango lassi, this may be a combination for you to avoid. Simply pay attention to how it makes you feel. Each food combining guideline will create different reactions in different bodies. Your body will tell you which rules can be relaxed, and which you rules demand more discipline.
