Mango, mangiferin, anti-bacterial, anti-cancer, gastrointestinal infection.Abstract
Mangoes are among the most popular fruits in the world because of their mouthwatering flavor, vibrant color, and inviting aroma. It belongs to the Anacardiaceae family and has many different varieties and health benefits. It has a strong nutritional profile and flourishes in tropical climates. Numerous studies conducted all around the world have shown that Mangifera indica Linn has a variety of medicinal and nutritional benefits. It has a specific nutritional and phytochemical content. Mango trees' many components offer a variety of advantages. There are a wide range of pharmacological, therapeutic, and numerous health benefits provided by the flower, seeds, leaves, bark, and raw as well as ripe fruits. Mangoes have higher levels of macronutrients and micronutrients, as well as a variety of bioactive chemicals found in various plant parts. For instance, mangiferin is a mango's main active ingredient. In this review article, we looked into a variety of mango benefits, such as its anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, anti-bacterial, and gastrointestinal health benefits
