Mango vs Peach – Which is Healthier?

Our Verdict

When comparing mango to peach, we picked the mango.

Why?

Both have their merits:

In terms of macros, mango has slightly more carbs, and the other macros are too close to call. Since the carbs difference also isn’t very big, we’re calling this round a tie, but you could call it a small nominal win if you like.

In the category of vitamins, mango has more of vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, C, E, K, and choline, while peaches are not higher in any vitamins. An easy win for mangos.

Looking at minerals, mango has more calcium, copper, magnesium, manganese, and selenium, while peaches have more iron, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc. A marginal 5:4 win for mangos, though it’s worth noting that mango did also have the wider margins of difference (thus setting it a little further ahead if we want to count that).

In other considerations, peaches do have more polyphenols, as well as some anticancer properties that aren’t known of mangos. So that’s a point in peaches’ favor.

Adding up the sections makes for an overall win for mangos, but it’s close, since as we say, both have their merits.
