How many mangosteens can you eat in a day?

1. Dosage

Nutrition experts recommend eating about 3 mangosteens a day. Excessive consumption may cause symptoms such as a sudden increase in blood sugar, gastrointestinal discomfort or constipation. Because mangosteen is a cold food, eating too much of it will cause the stomach to become too cold, which may lead to abdominal pain and nausea. Also, due to its sweet nature, eating too much of it will cause blood sugar to increase. People with diabetes or high blood sugar should eat it with caution.

2. How to eat

After excessive consumption, you can eat some hot fruits such as durian and mango to prevent spleen and stomach deficiency and coldness. In Thailand, durian and mangosteen are called husband and wife fruits. One is the king of fruits and the other is the queen of fruits. They can offset the harm caused by excessive consumption of each other. Be careful not to consume it in excess with cold foods such as watermelon and strawberry, otherwise it will aggravate abdominal pain and other symptoms.
