Dried mangoes are generally high in calories. Moderate consumption of dried mangoes usually does not lead to weight gain, but excessive intake may cause obesity.
Dried mangoes are made from fresh mangoes through high-temperature baking and sun-drying. They have a relatively high calorie content, with about 1,151 kilojoules (274 kilocalories) per 100 grams. When consumed in moderation, the calories from dried mangoes can be normally burned and metabolized by the body, typically without causing fat accumulation. However, if you eat a large amount of dried mangoes without exercising, the excess calories cannot be fully consumed or metabolized, which may be stored as fat in the body and lead to weight gain.
Dried mangoes are rich in nutrients:
Vitamins: Such as vitamin C and B-group vitamins, which help maintain normal body metabolism.
Minerals: Including calcium, phosphorus, iron, and other essential nutrients for the human body.
Therefore, moderate consumption of dried mangoes is beneficial to health.
In daily diet, it is recommended to control the intake of high-calorie and high-fat foods (such as animal livers and fatty meats) and combine them with regular exercise to maintain a healthy weight and physical function.
