MANGOES could help you lose weight and stay slim but only if you eat the skin you would normally throw away, a study suggests.

In tests, extracts from mango skin appeared to inhibit the development of human fat cells.

The secret is in phytochemicals that act as natural fat busters and are found only on the outside of the fruit, according to researchers in Australia.

Professor Mike Gidley, of the University of Queensland, said: We know mangoes have many excellent nutritional properties but more work needs to be done to understand the complex natural compounds found in these and other fruits.

This research reminds us that we should be looking at the whole fruit when considering how to take advantage of natural goodness.

The study could lead to the development of a supplement to fight obesity.
