BOSTON, Aug. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Mangos are one of the most popular fruits1 in the world, grown in more than 100 countries2 globally and consumed by an extremely diverse population. Now, two new studies funded by the National Mango Board and presented as posters during the American Society for Nutrition's Annual Conference (Nutrition 2023) show mangos may play a role in risk reductions for vascular issues while helping to improve antioxidant levels among relatively healthy adult men and women who are overweight or obese.

Key Points: 
  • Mangos are one of the most popular fruits in the world, grown in 100+ countries and consumed by a diverse population.
  • "It's likely the unique matrix of vitamins and bioactive compounds synergistically working together that resulted in our findings," says Young Hong.
  • Following the first 12 weeks, participants took a 4-week washout break then switched groups and consumed the alternate snack for another 12 weeks.
