(pictured above: Indian daseri mangoes) Indian mangoes are, in my opinion, the best available. They’re sweet, rich, and (fortunately) very healthy!  1 mango is approximately 130 calories, which seems excessive. However, this tropical fruit is abundant with antioxidants that have the power to lower cholesterol, maintain alkaline levels, and even resist leukocytes. Read more here! I think, the extra calories are definitely worth it.(guess what I’m having for dessert?) :)

A Confession…

I noticed that I haven’t been eating as healthy as needed— my food choice is nutritionally beneficial to an extent, but my caloric intake and exercise are seriously lacking. Does anyone have any advice for finding the right balance?
