A little science for my favorite fruit.

====================

While it may not get the publicity of some of the superfruits like blueberry and acai, the addition of mango to the diet may be part of a future solution for obesity and diabetes.

According to a recent animal study conducted by a research group lead by Edralin Lucas, an associate professor in Nutritional Sciences in the College of Human Environmental Sciences at Oklahoma State University, incorporating mango in the diet could aid in reducing body fat and controlling blood sugar.

“Mango contains many nutrients and other bioactive compounds that can provide various health benefits aside from what we investigated,” Lucas said. “It is high in fiber, vitamins A and C, as well as other minerals and phytochemicals. In addition to the positive effects on body fat, blood lipids and glucose, it is not associated with serious side effects such as negative effects on bone that is linked with the use of rosiglitazone, a drug commonly used to lower blood sugar.”

You should throw some blueberries in there.

Green Tea is good as well for the antioxidants.

I'm enjoying this thread so keep us updated.

Almost a week in the books now. I'm no longer having all those cravings I was having. I did eat some freshly made pico de gallo today along with all my juice. Jeez, is pico de gallo good or what? There's nothing in it but tomatoes, onions, cilantro, jalapeno, and lime juice, but that is some GOOD stuff.

More to do with Walter White from 'Breaking Bad'. Though, I was also always very amused by the references to the "Heisenberg Compensator" in Star Trek as a vital part of transportation technology.

Good. I'm feeling good. I'm down about 10 pounds. I've been eating raw stuff here and there. I definitely feel like I have more energy and I fight off tiredness at work a lot less the last few days. I'm pretty happy with everything at the moment and I'm going to keep going.

I may make some jalapeno pinto beans tomorrow. Gonna start adding some more protein back into my diet.

That's good, man. As long as you do a calorie count, it's cool. I feel good too. This has been the longest I've ever been and the fastest I've ever lost weight, but I think I can get to my target weight even if I just eat raw. My stomach and things sure feel better though. Taking a break from eating (so much, at least) was a good idea for me.
