Thian Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I very rarely have seen mahachanok mango's in BKK, where do they sell them? My guess is they go for export. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder26 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Mostly sour mangoes have great health benefits. Not only the Mahachanok mangoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srikcir Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 7 minutes ago, Thian said: The researcher developed an improved mahachanok with higher cancerfighting properties....at least that's what i read last week. True: A better article http://www.nationmultimedia.com/detail/national/30325492 The researchers found that introducing methyl jasmonate to pre-harvest mangoes boosted their levels of Vitamin C, glucose, fructose, sucrose and carotenoid. Methyl jasmonate plus ethephon, both of which are safe and leave no residues, increased the carotenoid level by 50 per cent. Methyl jasmonate in combination with specific amounts of light created a redder skin on mangoes 90 days after blooming, boosting the level of anthocyanin. Whether higher consumption of carotenoid and anthocyanin is medically beneficial remains to be scientifically confirmed, ie., clinical trials.

Both Indonesia and Malaysia are far more dynamic and progressive than Thailand on countless levels. And Indonesia is far stronger economically. Sure, stronger than Laos, Burma and Cambodia. But, what does that mean? Not much of a comparison. A better comparison might be the Thailand of 15 years ago, and the Thailand of today. 22nd largest economy in the world before. Barely 30th, today.

Mahachanok really smells like carrots though, it's sure different than namdocmai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
