Organic dried mango and pregnancy
Pregnancy is a stage in which you should pay more attention to your diet since all the foods you are consuming will provide benefits to the baby’s development. Sometimes eating a balanced diet can be difficult and during pregnancy is more complicated because of the cravings or discomfort caused by some foods as well as the progression of pregnancy.

Eating fried foods, high in sugar, fat or many flours can cause more weight than recommended by your doctor, promote problems in pregnancy such as gestational diabetes, high cholesterol or risks during labor.
The mango is a fruit that as we had already mentioned in another post, is recognized as the king of fruits; and it has been known for hundreds of years for its incredible flavor and for being a tropical fruit difficult to find in many regions. The mango is a fruit that rots quickly and is really common in countries with tropical climate so in many cities of the world sometimes people cannot find them in the supermarket and if they do, it should be consumed quickly.
