Studies link mango and its nutrients to several health benefits, such as improved immunity and digestive health. Some polyphenols found in the fruit might even lower the risk of certain cancers.

A mango allergy can cause mouth itching, hives, vomiting, or breathing issues shortly after exposure. A person may also experience a delayed reaction, such as a rash around the mouth or eye swelling.

Mangoes are one of the sweetest fruits. Native to South Asia, they've been an important food in traditional Indian Ayurvedic medicine for over 4,000 years. Today, they're enjoyed all over the world.
