Description

[edit | edit source]

The fruit is sweet and ripens in October and November, after most varieties have finished.

The thick skin of Shan-e-Khuda gives it a long shelf life and high export value. It can be found in four colors – red, purple, green, and yellow. It is sometimes called 'Sun Session' because the more sun it receives, the more colors are produced during its ripening season.[1]

The purple variety of 'Shan-e-Khuda' mangoes offers skin benefits by providing a rich source of vitamins and antioxidants. These nutrients contribute to the promotion of healthy and radiant skin, aiding in the reduction of aging signs and the maintenance of skin elasticity..[2]

Consuming Japanese Purple Mangoes may aid in cholesterol management. These mangoes contain dietary fiber and compounds that can help lower cholesterol levels, which is important for heart health.[3]
