Smoothies are a dessert that is perfect for hot summer days. They are not only delicious but can also benefit your health. Traditional smoothies do not contain any milk or cream and are made entirely of sugar water and fresh fruits, which makes them healthier.

A healthy smoothie needs to be well-hydrated and includes protein, healthy types of carbohydrates, and good fats to fuel your body.

Mangoes are one of the best fruits for smoothies. They are soft and smooth, and their puree mixed with sugar water can maintain a soft "frost" feeling even after freezing into ice. Mango smoothies taste great and offer numerous health benefits.

Here are some benefits of eating mango smoothies:

1. Antibacterial and Anti-inflammatory: The immature fruit, bark, and stem of mango can inhibit pyococcus, Escherichia coli, and other bacteria. Mango leaf extract also has the effect of inhibiting pyococcus and Escherichia coli and can treat human skin and digestive tract infections.

2. Anti-Cancer: Mango fruit contains mango ketoacid, mango alkyd, and other triacetin acid and polyphenolic compounds that have anti-cancer pharmacological effects.

Mango juice can also increase gastrointestinal motility and shorten the residence time of feces in the colon. Therefore, eating mango is very beneficial for the prevention and treatment of colon cancer.

3. Treats Cough: Mango ingredients have the effect of treating cough and can have an auxiliary therapeutic effect on symptoms such as cough.

4. Lowers Cholesterol and Triglycerides: The content of vitamin C in mango is higher than that of ordinary fruits. The content of vitamin C in mango leaves is also very high, and its content will not disappear even if it is heated and processed.

Regular consumption of mangoes can continuously supplement the consumption of vitamin C in the body and reduce cholesterol and triglycerides. This is beneficial for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

5. Enhances Eyesight: Mango is very rich in sugars and vitamins, especially pro-vitamin A, which has the effect of enhancing eyesight.

In short, eating mangoes regularly is good for moisturizing the skin. It is a beautiful fruit for ladies. In the summer, it is better to make mango into a mango smoothie, both for beauty and to cool off the heat.
