Nutritional values

No wonder that mangos have literally been on everyone's lips in the tropics for about 4000 years: Not only do they taste great, but they also provide plenty of calcium, iron and vitamin C, and above all a lot of provitamin A. Even a small mango covers the daily requirement!

Dates are among the sweetest since there is a sweet tooth - and they are also really healthy! For example, they provide more fibre than wholemeal bread. They also contain large amounts of B vitamins, calcium, phosphorus, iron, magnesium, zinc and copper.
