Nutritionists have named a fruit that prevents obesity and diabetesWestern nutritionists have named a fruit that prevents obesity and diabetes. According to doctors, everyone who monitors their health or struggles with excess weight should introduce mangoes into their diet, writes Medikforum.

Experiments proving the positive effects of mango on the body were conducted by employees of the University of Oklahoma. The study continued for 12 weeks..

Experimental scientists were 60 mice, which were divided into four groups according to the type of food. One of them was a control group (rodents were fed the usual food), the second included animals that received about 10% of calories from fat, the third group received 60% of calories from fat.. The remaining mice were given the maximum amount of fatty food, and also regularly fed them mangoes..

It's no secret that the addiction to the use of fatty foods changes the balance of microorganisms in the intestine for the worse.. As earlier studies have shown, these changes are fraught with the development of diseases such as obesity and type 2 diabetes.. But American scientists have found a way to deal with this problem..

Their experiment with laboratory animals proved that mango fruits contribute to an increase in the population of beneficial microorganisms in the human intestine, due to which a positive dietary effect appears..

It's also worth noting that just one cup of chopped mango equates to a decent serving of antioxidants and packs in over 20 different vitamins and minerals..

This fruit is a valuable source of fiber.. In addition, it helps reduce sugar in the body and has anti-inflammatory properties, which guarantees an improvement in the overall condition of the body..
