About Mango popsicle
Mango popsicles are a refreshing frozen treat made primarily from pureed mangoes, often blended with water, sweeteners, or lime juice. Mangoes originated in South Asia and are widely enjoyed in tropical and subtropical cuisines worldwide. This dessert retains many of the mango's nutritional benefits, including natural sugars, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins like Vitamin C and A. Mango popsicles are typically low in fat and can be a hydrating snack due to their water content when served without heavy additives. Depending on additional ingredients, the nutritional profile may vary.
Health Benefits
- Rich in Vitamin C, which supports immune health and skin rejuvenation (35% of the daily recommended intake per 100g of mango).
- Contains Vitamin A, which promotes good vision and healthy skin (20% of the daily recommended intake per 100g of mango).
- Provides dietary fiber that aids in digestion and supports gut health (1.6g of fiber per 100g of mango).
Dietary Considerations
Selection and Storage
Store mango popsicles in a freezer at -18°C (0°F) to keep them firm and fresh. For best quality, consume within 1-2 months.
Common Questions About Mango popsicle Nutrition
What is the nutritional content of a mango popsicle?
A typical mango popsicle contains around 60-100 calories, depending on its size and ingredients. It is low in protein (less than 1 gram per serving) and primarily consists of carbohydrates, usually around 15-20 grams. It can be high in sugar, both natural (from mango) and added, so checking the label is recommended.
Can I eat a mango popsicle on a keto or low-carb diet?
Mango popsicles are generally not suitable for a keto or strict low-carb diet due to their high carbohydrate content, often 15-20 grams per serving, primarily from natural and added sugars. However, keto-friendly versions made with low-carb sweeteners are available or can be made at home.
Are mango popsicles healthy?
Mango popsicles can be a refreshing and low-calorie treat and may provide small amounts of vitamin C and vitamin A, depending on the amount of real mango used. However, store-bought varieties often contain added sugars, which should be consumed in moderation. Homemade versions with fresh mango and no added sugar are a healthier option.
What is the recommended serving size for mango popsicles?
The recommended serving size for mango popsicles is usually one popsicle, which typically weighs around 60-80 grams. This provides a controlled portion of calories and sugar, making it a reasonable treat as part of a balanced diet.
How do mango popsicles compare to other fruit-flavored popsicles?
Mango popsicles tend to have higher natural sugar content compared to popsicles made from lower-sugar fruits like berries. However, they often offer more vitamins, especially vitamin A and vitamin C. When choosing a popsicle, those made with real fruit and minimal added sugar are generally healthier options.
