Mango: Stress & Sleep Aid

Mango is a miracle sleep aid. When you eat mango before bed, phytochemicals from the fruit, along with amino acids such as glycine, glutamine, and cysteine combined with fructose and glucose, travel to the brain and quickly restore depleted neurotransmitters. This allows most insomniacs a chance to finally get some true rest during the night.

Mangoes are also beneficial for a whole slew of other aspects of health. Wonderful for stress assistance and viral protection, mangoes are also rich in beta-carotene to strengthen and support the skin; they are even a helpful preventative for all varieties of skin cancers.

Mangoes are a powerful tool to help with hypoglycemia, prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes. Their highly bioavailable trace magnesium coupled with phytochemical phenolic acids calms the central nervous system, which aids in staving off strokes, seizures, and heart attacks. The fruit’s pulp soothes the stomach and intestinal lining to alleviate constipation.

Mango is also an amazing exercise food, because it provides your muscles with traces of sodium, preciously needed glucose, and magnesium, which translates to longer, harder workouts while feeling less of “the burn.”

How To Use:

Enjoy mangos alone, in fruit salads, smoothies, dips, salad dressings, salads, nori wraps, salsa, and more. To get noticeable benefits, eat two mangoes a day. Eat mangoes on their own to help with sleep. Or, if you are looking for more energy later in the day, eat mangoes with celery sticks or on a salad and they can help give you a second wind.
