In the world, there are about 300 species of mangoes, a little more than 35 varieties are cultivated - hence such a diversity of color. Because of this, it is difficult to determine the ripeness of the fruit, because, by the way, the green mango fruit can be more ripe than orange. However, there are still ways of orienting in ripeness: in the area of the plinth, the fruit should emit a pleasant fruity smell, and when pressed, it should be elastic. Mango skin should be smooth and shiny. If the smell near the peduncle is a little similar to the smell of turpentine - the fruit is not spoiled, it is just such a variety, indeed, it is less valuable in comparison with others.

But, despite the numerous useful properties, mango has contraindications that can be harmful. Like many exotic fruits, it should be carefully introduced into the diet of people who have any allergic reactions. Most often, the allergen is the skin of the fruit. To protect yourself from this, avoid contact with it during cleaning. In this case, it is better to remove the skin with gloves, but you can ask someone to do it instead of you. In addition, be careful when eating immature fruits, especially if you have a weak intestine. But even ripe fruits can be too heavy for your stomach if you overeat them. Also, this fruit is not combined with alcohol drinks.
