Performance Benefits

Mangoes have a high water content, contributing to hydration. Proper hydration is crucial for maintaining physical and cognitive performance. The higher fibre content of this salad means it is best for a rest day meal option, as it may contribute towards gut discomfort during intense exercise.
Health Benefits

Mangoes are rich in vitamin C, which supports the immune system and helps in collagen formation for healthy skin. Broccoli is an excellent source of vitamin C, as well as vitamin K, which is crucial for blood clotting and bone health. High in fibre, broccoli promotes digestive health by supporting regular bowel movements and fostering a healthy gut environment.
Expert Tips

We would suggest that you serve this with chicken, beef or any meat-alternative to boost the protein content.
