Researchers from the University of Queensland, Australia, have also contributed to the research on the subject, studying in particular the capacity of the skin of the mango to burn fat and thus promote weight loss. The study highlighted how, especially the external part of the fruit, is able to prevent the formation of fat cells, counteracting the phenomenon of adipogenesis, that is the process that underlies the development of fat cells in the body.

Does Mango Really Lose Weight? Here are the beneficial properties of mango
Mango is a fruit with a sweet flavor very similar to peach but with acidic and exotic notes. Mango is a sweet, colorful and juicy fruit. It has a high concentration of healthy properties and substances: carotenoids, vitamins A, C, E, iron and phosphorus, and releases a heady and inviting scent. Its particular flavor makes it suitable to be consumed both on its own, for breakfast, as a meal or snack, but also in preparations in the kitchen, in salads or in combination with white meat or fish main courses. Mango is an ideal fruit for weight loss as it has diuretic and laxative properties and is therefore useful in case of constipation and water retention.
