Abstract
Mango (Mangifera sp.; family: Anacardiaceae) is one of the most widely consumed fruits globally due to its rich and aromatic flavor, which is balanced with a pleasant balance of sweetness and acidity. It has emerged as a functional food, providing essential macro- and micronutrients, as well as a vast array of bioactive compounds that are significant for enhancing health and lowering the risk of various diseases. Additionally, mango is used in traditional medicinal practices. A considerable number of volatile chemical compounds and other secondary metabolites, inclusive of carotenoids, terpenoids, flavonoids, and polyphenolic, have been identified in mango fruit. This review aims to show the chemical composition, pharmacological activities, and therapeutic uses of mango.

Key words: Mango, Pharmacological activities, Medicinal uses, Laboratory animals.
