The mango is called the ‘King of Fruits’ and one of my favorites. The phenolic compound found in mangoes has been found to have powerful antioxidant and anticancer properties. Being high in iron, it is said to be very good for pregnant women as well as for people suffering from anemia. It's also believed to be effective in relieving clogged pores of the skin (yay!). The vitamin A (beta-carotene), vitamin E and selenium present in mangoes provide protection against heart disease. And have been found to be quite helpful in treating acidity and poor digestion. It is being said that the vitamin E present in mango helps hormonal system function more efficiently and thus, boosts sex life (double yay!).
Combined with passion fruit, the large number of antioxidants, including vitamins A,C,E and K, which have been shown to have a huge number of health benefits, makes this one powerful smoothie!
Ingredients:
-3/4 cup frozen mango
