What’s African Mango Seed Extract?
The African mango (Irvingia gabonensis) is a tree native to West Africa. Similar to regular mangoes, it is prized for its edible fruits and seeds. These seeds contain active components, including ellagic acid, glycosides, dietary fiber, essential fatty acids, and specialized proteins and minerals. In the West African area, its seeds have been used for centuries as a natural thickening agent for soups and stews.
African mango seed extract is traditionally obtained by drying and grinding the seeds into a fine powder, which can then be used directly or further processed into supplements. Research has shown that African mango seed extract offers excellent antioxidant properties, making it increasingly popular in modern dietary supplements.
