what it claims

Consume mango (for example in a chia pudding) to stock up on vitamin C and fiber, two key nutrients that promote satiety and support digestive comfort.

Kylie's advice is based on solid scientific foundations. Regarding digestive comfort, a 2018 randomized controlled trial (RCT) conducted by Texas A&M University shows that mango significantly improves transit thanks to the combined action of its fiber and antioxidant polyphenols, proving even more effective than an equivalent intake of isolated fiber alone. Regarding satiety, another 2021 randomized controlled trial (RCT) confirms that fresh mango effectively regulates appetite and prolongs the feeling of fullness much more stably than a standard refined snack. Conversely, the idea that vitamin C contributes directly to satiety or digestion lacks solid scientific evidence, as this vitamin is instead notable for general vitality and skin radiance. Finally, it is useful to note that in this pudding recipe, it is primarily the chia seeds and Greek yogurt that maximize the appetite-suppressing effect and digestive support due to their exceptional richness in soluble fiber and protein.

What the graded evidence says

Effect
body weight from added viscous fiber (RCTs), independent of energy restriction — viscous fiber gave a small but significant weight reduction vs control in meta-analysis of RCTs; effect on satiety/fullness is modest, not a strong appetite switch
Measured on
adults, including those with overweight and type 2 diabetes

What’s uncertain

The fullness effect is real but modest, and the weight benefit from fiber alone is small. The tolerance advice (go gradual) is practical wisdom more than hard trial data.
