March Mango Madness?

March must be a month many mull mango.
A year ago, I wrote of an article in the Penn State
"Collegian" that noted that to raise awareness for the
March National Nutrition Month, their seven dining commons
were running a "Favorite Fruit Campaign" in which students
voted for their favorite.
Which fruits were out front? Strawberries and (of course)
Mangoes!
This March, I see Mango was selected among the top fruits
by Cara Rosenbloom, RD, a Senior Nutrition Specialist in an
article on MSN.
Rosenbloom notes mango is a great source of fibre, Vitamin
A and E and are high in antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin,
which may help protect vision and reduce the risk of
age-related macular degeneration (the leading cause of
blindness in adults).
I say that is pretty sweet!
You can also find on our website in "Mango Recipes &
Resources", a truly fantastic article that ranks fruit by
their nutritional value - called "Fresh Food Comparison".
It was written by a food industry watchdog, The Center for
Science in the Public Interest, a few years ago..
The accompanying chart to the article is excellent as a
reference. Print it and put it on your fridge! I reread
this article every so often as it is a superb reminder of
those fruits that can really bless your body.
(And of course, our favorite - Mango - was a Gold Medal
Fruit!)
