Mango is considered the king of fruits because

of its unlimited nutritional and medicinal

properties. In Latin language, it is called

Mangifera indica. If we burn the wood of a

mango tree in our neighborhood, it keeps

germs and bacteria at bay. For the same

reason, it is also used in havans (religious

Hindu bonfire ritual).

The leaves of mango are believed to be sacred

and used in religious and social rituals. Mango

is considered good from taste and health point

of view. Mango also works as a blood booster

and sperm booster. It is full of richness of

vitamins A and C. It is especially beneficial for

skin and eyes.
