You can eat the skin of a mango, although some people are known to be allergic to it. Mangoes are related to poison ivy and poison oak, so if you allergic to them, don’t eat the mango skin.

I don’t want to eat healthy food?

Q: I’m- paradoxically- an exercise instructor, and have studied nutrition for several years as part of my ongoing training. It was pretty easy for me to eat healthy in college, of all places. Lots of fruits and vegetables and lean meats, five hours of ballet everyday. Now that I’m working, though, it seems like my body and brain have reverted to fussy toddler mode. I can’t have processed sugar because of a skin problem, anyway, but I seem to be falling back on the next worse thing- lots and lots of “no sugar added” artificially sweetened foods. I also eat lots of fruit (mostly mangoes and bananas), luckily, so I am getting some plant nutrition. The thought of eating a carrot, spinach or tomatos (formerly my three favorite quasi-veggies), though, turns my stomach, and getting in whole grains is- well- like trying to feed a fussy toddler. I get a big “no”, and just skip out on grain-based carbs altogether, on most days.My diet over the past few weeks has mainly relied on salmon, mangoes, bananas, and way, way too much artificially sweetened instant pudding and artificially sweetened hot chocolate. I have to keep my weight down for work, and I know I have emotional eating issues that flare up occasionally, so I use the pudding and hot chocolate as crutches. Why would my brain all of a sudden decide that it not only don’t crave vegetables and grains, but that I “shouldn’t” under any circumstances have them? Any ideas?

A: It might be the stress of such a busy schedule that is making you crave the unhealthy foods. Try and gradually reintroduce them into your diet in very small portions and in time you will get used to them again. Maybe try to disguise the taste with a sauce and that might help.
