Mango Juice Benefits: Vitamins A & C, Mangiferin and More

What's in Pure Mango Juice

1. Vitamin C and Immune Support

Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Mango is a good source, which makes mango juice a pleasant way to pair with iron-rich meals.

2. Vitamin A for Eyes and Skin

Mango's golden color comes from beta-carotene, which the body converts to vitamin A as needed — supporting vision, skin and immune function.

3. Mangiferin

Mangiferin is a polyphenol found mostly in mangoes. Lab and animal research suggests it has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. Human evidence is still early, so treat it as a promising area rather than a proven benefit.

Mango Juice vs Mango Nectar

Most 'mango' drinks in stores are nectars: mango purée diluted with water and sweetened, often 25-50% fruit. Pure mango juice is 100% fruit. The difference matters for both nutrition and added sugar.

Pomona Organic Mango Juice is cold-pressed from USDA Organic mangoes — no water, no added sugar, never from concentrate — in BPA-free glass.
