But does eating mango cause high uric acid in the body?
Increased levels of uric acid in blood can lead to scary health conditions like bone and kidney diseases, joint damage and heart ailments.
However, there is limited evidence to suggest that mango consumption causes high levels of uric acid in the body.
While mangoes do contain some purines, they are not considered to be a high-purine food.
In fact, the purine content of mangoes is relatively low compared to other common dietary sources of purines.
Experts have suggested that if you have a uric acid problem, then you should consume mango in limited quantities.
Eat mangoes only 2 times a week, that too a little amount.
Eating it in huge quantities every day can be harmful and increase the problem of gout.
