What is this food?
Mangosteen (a sweet, juicy tropical fruit). For every 100g, it has about 84 kcal and around 18.6g carbohydrates, with 1.8g dietary fiber and very little fat and sodium.
Why it matters to health
Mangosteen can be a nice fruit option for your daily meals and snacks because it provides carbohydrates for energy and dietary fiber that supports easier digestion and helps you feel fuller. It also has very low fat and almost no cholesterol, which makes it a lighter choice compared to many sweet snacks. Since it still contains natural sugars (carbs), pairing it with a balanced snack (like yogurt or nuts) can help keep your eating more satisfying.
Healthier tips
- For snacks, try a small bowl portion (e.g., a few pieces) instead of eating a large amount at once.
- Pair mangosteen with protein or healthy fats (plain yogurt, milk, or a small handful of nuts) to make it more filling.
- If you’re watching sugar intake, enjoy it after meals or as part of a snack, not as your only snack.
- Keep it fresh and clean—wash the fruit well before eating.
Common Filipino dishes
Mangosteen is usually eaten as a fresh fruit, but you may find it in fruit mixes like fruit salad, halo-halo, fresh fruit platter, yogurt with mixed fruits, and fruit smoothies.
