African Mango (Irvingia gabonensis), also known as bush mango, is indigenous to Africa. It has a fleshy fruit often used to make wine, and it is a good source of minerals, vitamins, carbohydrates and fiber. All parts of the plant can be used, but the kernel or seed is the part that is utilized the most for medicinal purposes.
The African mango is purported to have antibacterial, astringent, analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties. Traditionally, African mango has been used to treat a variety of conditions, including diarrhea, wounds, dysentery, yellow fever and tympanic membrane infections. It might also be helpful in lowering cholesterol and blood sugar levels. In addition, African mango is used for weight loss because it may decrease appetite and stimulate the body to burn fat stores for energy.
According to Drugs.com, African mango seed is a good source of several minerals, including magnesium, iron and potassium, while the pulp is high in calcium and vitamin C. It contains 18 amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. African mango is a good source of palmitic and lauric fatty acids. An analysis published in the August 2013 issue of the "Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry" found that the seeds contained ellagic acid.
Researchers exploring the purported benefits of African mango have seen some promising results. A study appearing in the March 2009 issue of "Lipids in Health and Disease" concluded that an extract of African mango seeds helped participants lose weight, improve cholesterol levels and lower blood sugar levels. Another study, published in the June 2012 edition of the "Dhaka University Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences," found similar blood-glucose-lowering effects of African mango seed. And a study that appeared in the December 2012 "JMBR Journal" revealed that African mango extract had a beneficial effect on the production of red blood cell components.
