I went out to a supermarket last night. I bought some mangos and some other fruits. Mango is one of the fruit I like most. The mango I bought last night named *harum manis*. This variety of mango is from Probolinggo, East Java. The meaning of *Harum manis* is sweet and smell good.

We have already known that mango is rich of vitamin C. And vitamin C is an antioxidant that is very good to prevent cancer and other metabolic diseases. I am pretty sure this tropical fruits has many other substances which are benefit for health. When I was in Palembang studying internal medicines, a friend of mine told me that mango has some benefit for preventing and curing her haemorrhoid. Is it true? I am trying to find a clue and evidence about that. Haemorrhoid is close related to constipation. According to a study by [Vinicius at al](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29733520/), mango is rich of fibre and polyphenol. They did a study for healthy human volunteers with chronic constipation by giving them 300 g mango fruit for 4 weeks. They found a good effect for the constipation. This study showerd the lowering of sign and symptom of the subject’s constipation.

I think fibre and polyphenol play vital roles for preventing and curing haemorrhoid due to constipation. I may suggest the people or patients who have haemorrhoid to consume mangos everyday.
