⚖️ Caution
Mango is fairly high in natural sugar, so enjoy moderate portions if you watch your blood sugar. Mango skin and sap are related to poison ivy and can irritate sensitive skin, so peel before eating.
🍃 A note from nature
Mango trees can live for well over a hundred years and keep bearing fruit the whole time — some old trees in India are still fruiting after centuries.
