Avocado and mango: famous fruits whose combination improves the function of blood vessels. Eating avocado and mango every day significantly strengthens the circulatory system in people with pre-diabetes. This conclusion was reached by scientists from the Illinois Institute of Technology, who published the results of the study in the Journal of the American Heart Association. 82 volunteers with high blood sugar levels participated in the experiment. The first group ate one avocado and a cup of mango daily, while the second group received regular foods with the same calorie content. As a result, in the "fruit" group the ability of the arteries to expand increased by 2.1 percentage points compared to the control group, and in the men the "low" pressure also normalized. However, this healthy habit did not lead to weight gain. Scientists attribute the effect to a powerful combination of fiber, monounsaturated fats and vitamin C, which work together to protect the inner walls of blood vessels. Photo: Lilia Charlovskia.
