Hola IMBBians,

Mangoes are undoubtedly the reason most of us wait for summers. We are ready to forgive the rising mercury levels just for the love of mangoes. Who doesn’t love treating their palate to this sumptuous, mouth-watering fruit? Not only do they taste good, they are a package of wholesome goodness for our skin, hair and health. No wonder a mango is called the “King of Fruits.”
So today I am going to talk about a few beauty and health benefits of Mangoes.

2. Prevent Hair Loss
The kernel of a mango is a storehouse of several minerals, vitamins and fatty acids. Peel the outer coat of the mango seed and put it in a jar containing COCA oil. (C=Coconut oil, O-Olive Oil, C=Castor Oil and A=Almond Oil) Yes, I have given that name to this oil concoction to remember them. You can also use Mustard oil. Leave it in sunlight for 3-5 days and use this oil regularly to prevent hair fall and greying. This oil also helps in promoting hair growth and making your mane long, black and healthy.

3. Dandruff
To win that battle against the worst hair foe, take mango seed butter and apply it to your hair. The above mentioned oil concoction for hair loss will also help in fighting dandruff and alopecia.
