After eating the tropical fruit every day for a fortnight, their bad cholesterol dropped.<BR><br \/>\nIn addition, six volunteers from the original study had their insulin and sugar levels checked after they ate one-and-a-half cups of mango with white bread.<BR><br \/>\nThe result showed the levels of insulin &#8211; a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels in the body &#8211; took a shine to mango.<BR><br \/>\nDr. Roberta Holt, an associate researcher at the University of California, Davis, said: &#8220;Risk factors like high blood pressure and unhealthy cholesterol are key contributors to cardiovascular disease, but a nutrient-rich diet that includes fresh fruit, like mango, has long been shown to help reduce those risks. <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;This study shows that even short-term changes &#8211; like eating fresh mangos daily &#8211; can make a measurable impact on chronic disease risk in certain populations.&#8221;<BR><br \/>\nShe continued: &#8220;Postmenopausal women face distinct metabolic changes that can impact their risk of developing cardiovascular disease. <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;These findings help to identify targeted dietary strategies, like eating fresh mangos daily, to aid this at-risk population and support cardiovascular wellness and potential reductions in chronic disease risk.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/bangbizarre.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Visit Bang Bizarre (main website) <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><script src=\"https:\/\/geo.dailymotion.com\/player\/xtbac.js\" data-video=\"\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2025-06-05 13:19:40 Eating fresh mango can improve the health of obese postmenopausal women.
