A substitution of 100 calories for a sweet snack improved insulin response (HOMA-IR, 2.28 ± 1.19 vs. 4.67 ± 1.2).

This does not mean eating a lot more mango, beyond 100 calories, is that much better for you.

Spoilsport!

Mangos are my absolute favorite fruit, bar none. A Guimaras mango, Aoril-May, is an instance of God outdoing himself and spoiling his people.

If only they had said cantaloupe instead of mango.

I hate mango.

A sugary piece of fruit is better for nearly diabetic, obese, adults than mainlining pure sugar.

This is a pleasant surprise. I think of them as one of the sweeter fruits as opposed to berries, I suppose.

Two cups of mango only have 100 calories?

No.

One cup yes but two cups, no.

I was actually hoping the Italian ices were good for you. No such luck.

Mango is the most popular fruit in the world. I on the other hand find it too sweet. To each one’s own.

What a load of bollocks posted by junk science sucker GullibleMind.
Posting a moronic ‘study’ based on a ridiculous sample of 48 subjects and concluding that eating sugary from mangos MAY get you diabete less fast than another sugary thing and presenting it as healthy eating is borderline criminal. It’s despicable that you continue to peddle such vile propaganda that justifies people’s cravings for sweetness.

Mango is packed with glucose and worse, fructose which is even more toxic for the liver in people with poor metabollic health. The way to avoid diabete is avoid sugary craps like in mango, not to find excuses to eat some more. It’s no surprise that Mexico is a big consumer of mango and is also the America’s capital of obesity.
