Organic Mango

Mangoes are tropical stone fruits that grow on trees. They are native to South Asia but are now cultivated in many tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. The fruit is typically eaten fresh, but can also be processed into juices, purees, and dried products.

Manufacturers use mangoes primarily for their sweet, tropical flavor and vibrant color. They are commonly found in fruit-based products like smoothies, juices, yogurts, desserts, and snacks. Mango can also be used to add natural sweetness and a fruity note to various food items.

Mango is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a good source of vitamins A and C, and dietary fiber. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated mango and its components. While generally considered healthy, excessive consumption of any fruit, especially in processed forms with added sugars, should be balanced within a healthy diet.
