MANGO
Mangos are an exotic tropical fruit with a sweet fragrance. Rich in pre-biotic dietary fibre, they strengthen the heart and provide energy and stamina. Mango has been found to protect against prostate, colon and breast cancers. It is an excellent source of beta carotene, alpha carotene, and beta-cryptoxanthin. It contains vitamin A, C and E, potassium and magnesium.
COCONUT MEAT
I must admit I am a coconut fanatic and this coconut orange pie is just divine. Coconuts digest easily and are used immediately for fuel and energy.
ALMONDS
Almonds are sweet, and low in acid. They contain protein, vitamin E, calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium and zinc. Almonds are anti-inflammatory and strengthen the nervous system.
I use them in my raw cakes, pies, cookies and homemade almond milk. Soak nuts and seeds for better digestibility and creamier texture.
