The best fruits to help you during allergy season!

If you have seasonal allergies and you enjoy eating fruits, you are reading the right article!

Some fruits can help you during allergy

There are several fruits that provide you with specific benefits during seasonal allergies. These usually start during Spring season and can go through Fall. It’s very important to have a strong immune system during seasonal allergies. So why not start by eating clean, healthy foods like fruits. We will list here the best fruits to help you during allergy season.

  • Citrus Fruits: they are full of vitamin C! The best way to increase your immunity is to get vitamin C in its most natural form. It’s good to take vitamins in capsules. It’s even better to get it from eating the actual fruit. Whole foods are full of minerals and antioxidants that aren’t found in most supplements.  Oranges, lemons, grapefruits and kiwis are some examples of great fruits to eat during allergy season. Lemons and oranges are in season mostly from March through November.
Slices of citrus fruits
  • Strawberries: they are also in season mostly from Spring until Fall! Which means you can get the best from strawberries to help you fight your allergy symptoms. Fruits are in their most nutrient rich form when they are in season! Strawberries, as other berries like blueberries, are rich in Quercetin. Some of its beneficial effects include anti-allergy and anti-inflammatory activities. Quercetin blocks histamines from cells and other allergic substance acting as a natural antihistamine. It’s ability to prevent allergic effects can help treat asthma and bronchitis.

Most red fruits contains flavonoids known as anthocyanins.

  • Cherries and grapes: also acting as antihistamine, anthocyanins are helpful for reducing congestion in sinuses passages. To get the best out of these flavonoids, make sure to keep them cool. Making blueberry pancakes or boiling strawberries to make jam significantly reduce the amount of anthocyanins. Try making fresh smoothies during allergy season!
  • Tomatoes: full of vitamin C and important source of lycopene. This is a carotenoide that helps reduce inflammation. It decreases the allergic response of eosinophils, a type of cell that promotes allergy symptoms. Different then berries, steaming or boiling  tomatoes bring out more lycopene for optimal nutrition.
  • Pineapples: they have bromelain – an enzyme that can ease sinus congestion. It fights inflammation helping reduce the swelling brought on by pollen and other seasonal allergens. Pineapples are easy to find all year-round. However, enjoy the sweetest pineapples in the Spring season, from March to July! Learn here how to pick the best pineapples at the grocery store.

On the other hand, apples and other fruits, can cause allergy reaction to people with pollen food allergy syndrome. These fruits have proteins similar to those in allergenic trees. People who have birch pollen allergies might have reactions to apples and peaches, for example.

In general, these are the best fruits to help you during allergy season.

Fruits can be a great natural source of protection for your health if you struggle with seasonal allergies. For kids who have difficulties eating fruits, try serving them in a creative way.

Pineberries are the new berries. Try them!

Pineberries are the new berries. Try them!

Let’s learn about these new berries!

When you see pineberries at the grocery store you may wonder if you should try these new berries – as they don’t look like your conventional fruit.

Pineberries taste very sweet and they are delicious! You may think they taste a little tart because of their pale color. But don’t get confused with an albino fruit when you see these new berries! The pale color is just one of their characteristcs.

Even though they look like strawberries, they taste different. The rather sweeter side of it comes from the similarity they have from pineapples. Pineberries have a soft bite to it if compared to strawberries, which feels firmer. Their bite also feel soft like pears. But pineberries feel firm like strawberries when you are holding them while rinsing them off or cutting out their stems.

Try pineberries with pancakes!
Chocolate lava pancake

The pineberries get their name because it is a combo of the words pineapple and strawberry. They are a novelty type of strawberry, because they range in color and flavor. They are usually white with red achenes (seeds) but they can turn pink when they grow in sunlight. Berries are harvested when the achenes turn from green to red – that is when you should try them!

Pineberries taste delicious on their own! They are great for kebabs with other fruits, which gives a unique touch. Pineberry is also delicious with hazelzut and chocolate spread – a great way to get the kids to eat them! They are also good with oatmeal or pancakes. You can be creative on how you eat pineberries, they are just another form of berry anyway and go well in so many dishes!

Here is a little bit of history on these newer berries: white-fruited strawberries of Fragaria chiloensis (Chilean strawberry) have been traced back to Chile where the native peoples cultivated them more than a thousand years ago. They were then introduced into Europe around the 1700’s. Only about 20 years ago,

the Netherlands developed the pineberry through crossbreeding the red and white varieties.

Ten years later, pineberries started selling in the U.S. and they are now more popular.

These new berries are delicious with hazelnut spread. Try them!

Pineberries are high in vitamin A and vitamin C which helps the immune health. They are antioxidants and rich in fiber. This pineapple flavor berry also helps support gut health, weight loss efforts and they may even support healthy blood sugar levels in people with diabetes.

Pineberries are sold most of the year from different regions. Florida growing season runs from November through April and the pineberries from California, from January through September. Other great news about pineberries is that they are non-GMO!

The powerful acerola and its immune benefits.

How can we benefit from the powerful acerola?

Did you know acerola cherry has 16 times more vitamin C than oranges? Let’s check out the powerful acerola cherry and its immune benefits! One cup of acerola has 1,700mg of vitamin C while one cup of orange (slices) has 96mg.

Mexico and South America are home to fresh acerola. The Northeast of Brazil is the ideal region for acerola to grow. The acerola tree is a typical tropical tree. It’s impossible to grow outdoors in temperate climates. The only option is to grow it in pots and bring it indoors in a heated moist greenhouse during winter.

Even though the powerful fresh acerola cherry is mostly grown in tropical countries, we find acerola in other forms.

In the U.S. it is now fairly easy to find frozen puree acerola pouches at the grocery stores. It’s becoming common to add it to smoothies and juices. Acerola has a tart taste so mixing it with other fruits will help sweeten your smoothie. Another option is, for example, to add sugar if you want to drink purely acerola juice. Monkfruit sugar is a great natural resource, it’s zero glycemic! Monkfruit sugar also tastes more like the sugar we are used to having, like cane sugar.

Acerola puree packet

Acerola Juice shot is another way you find acerola cherry to help your immunity. Packed with vitamin C, you find these acerola shots in some grocery stores. They are usually 2-ounce bottles of 100 % cold-pressed acerola cherries. It’s a great option to boost our immunity especially when we start feeling “under the weather.”

And for more examples of how you can find the powerful acerola cherry and its immune benefits: acerola powder and acerola capsules can also help boost your immune system!

You can find these at vitamin stores, pharmacies, or grocery stores. You have the option to add acerola powder to smoothies. As far as acerola in capsules goes, they are a great option for your daily vitamins. Ascorbic acid is not the greatest source of vitamin C. So finding acerola as one of the main ingredients in Vitamin C capsules or in any immune booster is your best option. They are not only packed with vitamin c, but they are also a natural source. Acerola is much more bioavailable than synthesized ascorbic acid found in dietary supplements.

Check out our Acerola and mango juice recipe. Just blend one pouch of frozen acerola (about 100 grams), one fresh mango (about half cup), and a half cup of water. To make it sweeter, add one teaspoon of monk fruit sugar and/or two strawberries.

Check out and shop our Acerola Boosted Tank Top for a powerful look! Enjoy the powerful acerola cherry and its immune benefits!

Fruit Tips

How to select the best fruits at the grocery store

Eating good fruits comes with the responsibility of choosing good fruits. How many times do we find ourselves staring at the produce section in the grocery stores, not knowing how to select the best fruits! Not only do we need to find the most delicious and good-looking fruits. We also need to choose the ones that best suit our needs, whether that is choosing ripe fruits to be consumed right away or greener ones for later in the week.

Keep in mind that there are fruits that continue ripening even after they were picked. As well as there are fruits that don’t! Therefore it’s important to know what are these fruits so you are not having the wrong expectations.

Our friend and Lovely Mango subscriber, Luz Villanueva, says it would be useful to read about how to select the best fruits. She has a family of five, including three kids. The below list is not only helpful for her entire family, but it can also help anyone who consumes the basic fruits, and a little more!

How to select the best bananas

BANANAS

In order to select the best fruits, let’s start with bananas which are must-haves. To eat bananas immediately or within the next day, make sure to get yellow ones with a little green around the edges and very few brown spots. Some people prefer to eat less ripe bananas, so for those, look for almost no brown spots and a little more green. To eat them in the next 3 to 5 days after you purchase them, go for a bunch that is green with a few yellow spots. Don’t forget to store them at room temperature, otherwise, if you put green bananas in the fridge it will stop the ripening process.

Selecting the best apples

APPLES

Another favorite on the grocery lists and a must-have on our how-to select the best fruits list are apples! When buying apples, avoid the ones with bruises and cuts. But if you find small bruises and cuts after you purchase them, you can cut around them. Colors don’t always define if the apple is the best to eat. However, brighter color apples are usually more flavorful than dull-looking apples and it also means they are fully riped. In case you end up with unripped apples in the house know that they continue to ripen after they were picked. If you find apples with the stem on them, that helps last longer. Lastly, a good apple should feel firm when you gently squeeze it.

How to select the best grapes

GRAPES

How do we select grapes and avoid the temptation of tasting them? Just like apples, good grapes should feel firm when you press on them. They shouldn’t feel too hard otherwise they haven’t ripened yet. Avoid buying unripe grapes as they don’t continue ripening after they have been harvested. But they also shouldn’t feel mushy either! If their stems look dark and brittle that means they are getting old and they are too soft. So, another important sign of freshness is when their stems look green. Additionally, don’t worry if you see white, waxy spots on grapes. They are called blooms and they are a natural coating that protects them from decay.

How to select the best watermelon

WATERMELON

When buying pre-cut watermelon, look for bright red flesh and darker seeds. Keep in mind that once a watermelon has been cut, it will only last for a few days in the refrigerator. So unless you are planning on consuming it right away, you better off buying a whole one. In this case, look for a dark green watermelon with a yellow spot. Having a white, rather lighter color spot means it hasn’t been sitting on the field long enough and it is unripe. Another way to know it has ripening at its best is if the watermelon has a uniform shape. Avoid watermelon with bumps, dents, and asymmetrical form, which may have received irregular amounts of water and sun. Finally, a watermelon should feel heavy compared to another one of the same size, because it means it has a lot of water, it’s juicy and delicious!

Selecting the best strawberries

STRAWBERRIES

For ripe strawberries to taste sweet, they need to look red from top to bottom. Strawberries with yellow or green spots are not as sweet! Depending on weather conditions, strawberries can be small or big, but they will be delicious either way. Look for green leaves as they are a sign of freshness. Even if you see only one mold strawberry inside a box, avoid buying that box as the other strawberries are getting old too! They also should feel firm when you gently squeeze them, like any other type of berries. Don’t expect strawberries to look or taste better than they are after you buy them as they don’t ripen after they are picked. Organic strawberries are not only more nutritious and free from toxins, but they are also better for the environment.

How to select the best pineapples

PINEAPPLE

Just like watermelons, a pineapple should feel heavy if compared to other pineapples of the same size. In addition, put your nose next to its bottom to expect a sweet smell. The bottom should also look lighter in color, usually yellow, and the top half of the pineapple, light green. Avoid pineapples that are completely green or brown, with bruises and soft spots. Try to follow these tips to find the best and ready-to-eat pineapples! But if you end up with a greener one, leave it at room temperature and chances are it will ripen in a few days. Watch this experiment that shows it is possible to ripen pineapples and eat them sweeter.

How to select the best cherries

CHERRIES

When you are buying cherries, look for green stems as they are a sign of freshness. If they don’t have stems they can still taste sweet but stems will keep them fresh for a longer period of time. There are many types of cherries and with these, different colors as well. Look for deep, dark saturation, regardless of the color or type they are. Cherries also need to be firm. Soft, mushy cherries are getting too old. It is also important to know that when selecting Rainier cherries, the reddish-yellow ones, are naturally less firm than the black cherries. It’s well-known that fresh cherries are found during the summer months. But if you are looking for cherries during the off-season for baking or other recipes, you can find great options in the freezer section and in jars or cans.

How to select the best peaches

PEACHES

Another Summer fruit, peaches should actually look beautiful in order to be ready to eat! Bright yellow color with some redness is a great sign of ripeness – check out the yellow peach on the left. They shouldn’t have bumps or look too mushy. However, peaches with small wrinkles mean they are perfectly ripe and soft enough to enjoy! You can also gently press on them. They should feel entirely firm but a little soft on the spot that you are giving a gentle squeeze. When selecting white peaches (photo on the right) make sure there are no green spots on the white areas as these would still be unripe. Summertime is definitely the best time to find fresh peaches. Hope you find these and more as you select the best fruits!

Make the most out of fruits in the spring season

Spring Fruits

Let’s learn and make the most out of fruits in the spring season!

Here at Lovely Mango, we often talk about the importance of eating fruits in season. And it wouldn’t be different this spring! Fruits of the season are healthier and more delicious. When buying fruits in season, it means that they were picked when fully ripened and consequently they taste delicious! Fruits in season also have better nutrition because the nutrients are fully developed once they are completely ripened. So, let’s enjoy fruits in this spring season!

We hope you enjoy this beautiful platter of Spring fruits cut in special shapes! Let’s do an overview of these fruits that are at their best during the springtime!

Orange – Despite oranges being in season in the winter, which is great to boost our vitamin C content during cold and flu season, many orange types continue in season during spring. That is also in our favor if we suffer from allergies. That is because the vitamin C content from oranges will boost our immune system, making us stronger against allergies. Some grapefruits and oranges are in season from winter all the way to May. Check out our article on fruits that will boost your immune system here.

Pineapple – For those who are looking to get back in better physical shape after the winter, pineapple can help! This fruit generally in season from March to July, is full of manganese which helps keep your bones strong. It’s not only beneficial to eat them before working out. Studies have shown that pineapples will help reduce inflammation and soreness after workout sessions.

Kiwi – There is about 80% of the daily vitamin C recommended value in one kiwifruit. But not only it has a great source of vitamin C to keep your immune system stronger. This fruit can also be beneficial in the Spring season especially for those who suffer from allergies that trigger asthma symptoms. A study shows that there was a positive effect on lung function among those who consumed citrus and kiwifruit. Eating these fresh fruits may reduce wheezing in susceptible children.

Strawberry – Not only we can enjoy the taste of fresh in-season strawberries as well as we can benefit our skin by eating them. The antioxidants found in strawberries help reduce skin damage from the sun’s UV rays and reduces inflammatory responses – acne. The vitamin C in strawberries can also work as a toner and reduce dark spots. Therefore, when you are out there enjoying nice weather and strawberry kabobs with your friends, know that your skin will be well assisted.

Mango – How about keeping your heart healthy for the start of the season of running and exercising outdoors? Mangoes are considered heart-healthy because of their high concentration of polyphenols. It primarily contains mangiferin, a bioactive compound that is antioxidant and may protect against inflammation. With a peak season running from May through September, mangos are so delicious and have so many recipes to enjoy in spring.

Most fruits can also be found during any other season or they can also be imported. But try enjoying the fruits in season and you will have the best in nutrition and flavor. In addition, you can feel better during the spring season as these fruits will give you specific benefits to help you obtain a better performance either exercising or enjoying time with friends while outdoors.

Watermelon heart

Lovely Mango will show you how to make easy Valentine’s day gifts.

On Valentine’s day, we like to show appreciation for the ones we love: our teachers, co-workers, friends, and especially family members. But sometimes we realize Valentine’s day is around the corner and we never got a chance to get anything special to give to our valentines. So let’s check out some ideas that will save your Valentine’s day!

Lovely Mango has some ideas to share so you can create a last-minute Valentine’s fruit gift! The first thing we should think about is colors! Valentine’s Day is about love and love reminds us of the color pink and red. So, let’s say you are at home on February 14th and you realize you didn’t get anything to give to your spouse or kids. However, if you have a few delicious, fresh fruits in the kitchen these can definitely save your Valentine’s Day!

Apples, pomegranates, strawberries, and watermelon; are some examples of “fruits of love.”

So now it starts the fun part: you can make different shapes with them. For example, if you have cookie cutters, find a heart shape or your valentine first letter’s name and go from there. Then, it will be a special surprise and they will love how it looks and how special and sweeter it will be to eat the fruits. Here are some examples that Lovely Mango wants to share with you:

All you need for these lovely kabobs are cookie cutters and wood sticks. We used strawberries and grapes. Strawberries are not only red in color, but they also used to represent perfection and love. They still do! And if you have red grapes at home it will look even better! Just cut the strawberries with a heart cookie cutter, and add them to the wooden stick followed by a grape. Repeat this step a few more times. The smaller the cookie cutter the better, so it can fit on the strawberry to cut well.

You can also try making a LOVE boat!

To make a Love Boat, all you need is a bowl with an elongated shape and add a few red color fruits with romantic heart shapes inside! Feel free to add the fruit kabobs as the boat’s paddles.

Watermelon heart

In order to make slices of watermelon as heart shapes, the watermelon needs to be cut into thinner slices to fit in the cookie cutter. Be creative and make your Valentine’s favorite things using various shapes to make them unique and personal. But you can’t go wrong with a LOVE Boat full of hearts!

8 fruits that will boost your immune system in the new year

These 8 winter fruits will boost your immunity and make you stronger in the new year!

During the winter season, we need to protect ourselves from cold and flu. There are so many things we can do to keep our immune system strong: exercise regularly, get adequate sleep, minimize stress, and eat a healthy diet. Several fruits have the power to help build a better immune system for our bodies. Keep in mind that fruits in season can be very beneficial when compared to the same produce available at the grocery stores all year round. These are the 8 fruits that will boost your immune system and make you stronger for the new year:

  • Oranges are often known as abundant in vitamin C. That is very true as one 8 ounce glass of orange juice contains 100% of our daily recommended value. Vitamin C promotes the production and function of the immune cells. Vitamin D and plant compounds also found in oranges, help fight infection and help build a strong immune system.
  • Pomegranates not only have vitamin C and E that help boost our immune system, but they have also shown to be antibacterial and antiviral in lab tests. Even though pomegranates are in season between the months of September and November, they store well and are available in December and January.
  • Clementines have amazing properties, one of them is 54 mg of vitamin C for 100g edible clementines. Even though they are sweeter, clementines are very similar to tangerines which also offer important benefits to our bodies.
  • Lemons are not only great when we are thirsty and we see a lemonade stand during the summer, they are actually best when they are in season, during the winter! Lemons not only contain vitamin C, but they also have about 60mcg of zinc per 100g. By the way, you are better off squeezing a lemon into a glass of water than making a sugary lemonade.
  • Grapefruits are not only high in vitamin C, they also have a great anti-inflammatory effect. Grapefruits have the power to restore levels of glutathione, a molecule recognized as one of the body’s most powerful antioxidants. Try our easy and delicious yogurt and grapefruit recipe.
  • Apples have quercetin in the skin, which is a type of plant pigment that helps boost your immune system. Apples are best if eaten fresh. Dehydrating or drying them removes vitamin C, which is predominantly in the flesh. A fun way to enjoy apples is by making this dark chocolate and apple recipe. Don’t forget to leave the skin on!
  • Pears may promote gut health due to their high fiber amount. Fibers are considered prebiotics which improves immunity. Pears are also a great source of flavonoid antioxidants, which help fight inflammation and may decrease your risk of disease. Just be sure to eat the peel because that is where you can find many of this fruit’s nutrients.

Try this delicious winter juice! Just add kiwi, clementines, grapefruit, and apples in a blender followed by a little bit of water and honey. After blending it well, use a colander to allow the juice to drain. Add a few ice cubes if you prefer and enjoy this boost of vitamin C with a straw! With these 8 fruits that will boost your immune system, you can create several different juice recipes.
