Washington - Saba:
A new American study has shown that a type of fruit plays a significant role in regulating blood sugar levels and weight loss.
Nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar, who conducted the study, explained that mangoes are a good source of fiber, antioxidants, and polyphenols, and play an important role in regulating blood sugar levels and weight loss.
Nutritionist Rujuta revealed the nutritional value of mangoes, explaining that a medium-sized ripe mango, weighing approximately 200-250 grams, contains 99 calories, 25 grams of carbohydrates, 23 grams of sugar, 3 grams of dietary fiber, 1.4 grams of protein, 0.6 grams of fat, 60 mg of vitamin C, 112 micrograms of vitamin A, 71 micrograms of folic acid, vitamins E and K, potassium, and magnesium.
Rujuta advised soaking mangoes for half an hour before eating them, explaining that mangoes are rich in fiber, which promotes satiety and aids in weight loss. They are also rich in antioxidants and polyphenols, and have a low glycemic index and can help regulate blood sugar when consumed in moderation.
According to a study published by the US National Library of Medicine, consuming mangoes in various forms has many positive effects, such as improvements in blood sugar control and plasma lipid levels.
Eating mangoes also improves mood, enhances physical performance during exercise, improves endothelial function, and reduces the incidence of respiratory infections.
