Certified African Mango By My Health Offers Overview & Drug Interactions

Irvingia gabonensis, commonly known as African mango or wild mango, is a tropical fruit tree native to West and Central Africa. The tree produces a distinctive fruit with a large seed, known as the African mango seed or dika nut, which has gained attention for its potential health benefits. The seeds of Irvingia gabonensis are rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, and are often used for their purported weight loss and metabolism-boosting properties. Some studies suggest that Irvingia gabonensis may help reduce body weight and improve metabolic parameters, possibly due to its impact on appetite regulation and fat metabolism.

Cissus quadrangularis is a vine plant from the grape family, traditionally used for promoting bone fracture healing and treating digestive disorders. It contains various beneficial compounds like flavonoids, steroids, and antioxidants. Studies in animals have shown that Cissus quadrangularis may stimulate new bone growth, promote the activity of bone-building cells called osteoblasts, increase bone thickness, and reduce the activity of bone-degrading cells called osteoclasts. Research suggests these bone-promoting effects are mediated by specific molecular pathways and increasing the expression of key bone development genes in osteoblasts. Other uses of Cissus quadrangularis include supporting weight loss, blood sugar control and improving joint pain.

Acaí berries are a type of fruit native to the Amazon region of Brazil and grow on the açaí palm tree (Euterpe oleracea). Açaí berries are small, round, and dark purple in color and have a sweet, slightly earthy flavor. Açaí berries are rich in antioxidants, fiber, and heart-healthy fats. They are also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, vitamin C, and calcium. Açaí berries are often marketed as a superfood due to their high antioxidant content, which may help to reduce inflammation and protect against certain diseases. Acai dietary supplements are consumed for their purported health effects and have been marketed to help improve energy levels, boost the immune system, and promote weight loss.
