Moreover, a study conducted by the Indian Cardiovascular Research Laboratory found that the compound "mangiferin" present in mango may protect heart cells from inflammation and oxidative stress, and works to reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

Improving digestive health

Due to containing many digestive enzymes called "amylase," it helps break down large food molecules so that your body can absorb them easily.

Reducing the risk of some types of cancer

A study issued by the Regina Elena National Cancer Institute in Italy indicated that mango contains a compound called "polyphenol," which helps prevent a harmful process called oxidative stress, which is linked to many types of cancer, including blood, colon, lung, prostate, and breast cancer.
