As a country situated in the region where mango originated, Sri Lanka has many varieties of mangoes that are native to it. There are some varieties introduced from other countries as well. At present, a native variety, called TomEJC, which was discovered in the 1990s, is the most popular commercial fruit that keeps getting even more popular by the day. This variety probably produces the largest and juiciest fruit in the world with Sri Lankan famous extra sweetness.

Enjoying Organic Mango Chunks in Pineapple Juice to their fullest
There are two main misassumptions attributed to mangoes and some other fruits.
The first one is that mangoes can cause allergies. Generally, mangoes are considered being safe for all ages and groups to consume. They do not cause an allergy unless you specifically have an allergy to mangoes. In this case, you should refrain from consuming them. As for the other instances, uncomfortable symptoms arise only if you eat too many of them at once. Which is not an allergy, although does have some similar reactions.
The second one is that mangoes are bad for you if you have diabetes because they have a high content of sugar. This is also not very true. Yes, mangoes do carry significant amounts of sugars, but they are plant-based sugars and not refined ones, and the fruit also carries dietary fibre. These work together to regulate the blood sugar level and actually can help in maintaining proper levels of it. Mangoes do spike blood sugar in diabetic patients if they are consumed in large amounts. They do have a glycaemic index of 51, but they are classified as low GI food because of the above-mentioned reasons. (GI index is used to measure the impact of foods on blood sugar levels.)
Whether you are diabetic or not, controlling your portion size is the best way to enjoy all your food and get maximum nutrition from them. This equally applies to Organic Mango Chunks in Pineapple Juice as well. Start with a portion or less at a time if you are uncertain of your condition. If you do have any concerns or worries, consult your medical adviser beforehand. In general, you may consume one or two portions a day safely, just put a few hours between them.
