A new study out of Oklahoma State University led by associate professor Dr. Edralin Lucas confirms some already well-known health benefits of mangoes. They're high in fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C and they may help control body fat and blood sugar.
But there's also a magical organic compound in mangoes called myrcene which is a terpene that is also found in certain strains of cannabis! Other foods high in myrcene include lemongrass, hops and black pepper extract. Find yourself a strain that’s high in myrcene to infuse into your next mango smoothie!
