Mango fruit is often used in home medicine in India and other Asian countries. For example, in India, mangoes are used to stop bleeding, to strengthen the heart muscle and for better brain function [source not specified 2480 days].

Green unripe fruits contain large quantities of starch, which, as they ripen, turns into simple carbohydrates: sucrose, glucose and maltose. In addition, unripe mango is a valuable source of pectin, but after the formation of a hard stone in the fruit, its amount decreases significantly. Due to the content of citric, oxalic, malic and succinic acids, the unripe fruit has a very sour taste. Green mango is also rich in vitamin C (twice as much as lime), and it also contains other vitamins: B1, B2, niacin. [source not specified 2024 days]

The word mango comes from the Portuguese word manga, from the Malay (Austronesian) mangga, from the Dravidian (Tamil) word mankai, where man means “mango tree” and kai means “fruit.” The name "mango" appeared in Europe during the spice trade with South India in the 15th and 16th centuries.
The exact origins of mangoes are unknown. Indian mango supposedly originated in South Asia from Pakistan to Indonesia.

In India, the Philippines and Haiti, mango (Indian mango species) is considered one of the national plants.

India harvests about 13.5 million tons of mangoes (data for 2009) and is therefore the main producer (one of the most famous varieties is Alphonso). In Europe, mangoes are cultivated mainly in the Canary Islands in Spain.
