Health: Mango a must

Health: Mango a must

09 JUNE 2008

As tropical fruits become even more readily available – and tempting – in the summer months, make sure to include mango or papaya in your diet. They contain beta-cryptoxanthin which has antioxidant properties. Carotenoids may also reduce the risk of cervical cancer. Beta-cryptoxanthin is absorbed most effectively when eaten with fat; eat as part of a mixed meal to maximise benefits or add to smoothies.
