Mango (ripe)
Amra·आम्र
Also called: aam, mango, ripe mango
Sweet, heavy and building — settling for Vata and classically regarded as strengthening.
How Mango (ripe) affects your doshas
In Ayurveda a food's effect depends on your constitution. This is the lens the app uses to suggest what to favour and ease off.
| Dosha | Suitability | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Vata | Balancing | Calms Vata — favour it when Vata runs high. |
| Pitta | Neutral | Broadly neutral for Pitta. |
| Kapha | Use sparingly | Can raise Kapha — go easy when Kapha runs high. |
When to go easy
Heavy and sweet: it adds to Kapha, and in quantity its warmth tells on Pitta.
