Our Verdict
When comparing blueberries to mangos, we picked the mangos.
Why?
Both have their merits and it was close!
In terms of macros, blueberries have a tiny bit more fiber and mangos have slightly more protein, but the numbers are all close enough that it’s fairest to call this round a tie.
In the category of vitamins, blueberries have more of vitamins B1 and K, while mangos have more of vitamins A, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, C, and E, winning.
Looking at minerals next, blueberries have more iron, manganese, and zinc, while mangos have more calcium, copper, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and selenium, winning again.
In other considerations, blueberries are higher in polyphenols, so that is a point in their favor.
Adding up the sections makes for an overall win for mangos, but as we say, both have their merits, so by all means do enjoy either or both, as diversity is best!
