What Can Mangosteen
Fruit Juice Do for You?
Great health
potential! Lots of money potential! Plenty of time! Can you begin to imagine the possibilities?
Mangosteen
Fruit Juice is formulated and sold as a dietary nutritional supplement. The product is derived primarily from the puree of the whole mangosteen fruit. That's right... the pulp, rind and seed. So, what's the excitement all about drinking mangosteen
fruit juice?
It is now a well established scientific fact that the mangosteen fruit (garcinia cambogia) is one of the best natural sources of naturally occurring xanthones, potent antioxidants. Xanthones research by scientists for many years have demonstrated the enormous health benefits to humans that are well documented in the scientific literature. The mangosteen fruit (aka Queen of Fruits) itself has been used for centuries by local natives in Asia to treat numerous physical
ailments and diseases.
So, what are xanthones? Xanthones are a class of over 200 chemical compounds that are similar to vitamins. They can be made in the laboratory (synthetic) or extracted from plants. Mangosteen
fruit juice contains intact xanthones, since the whole fruit is used for formulation. Nothing is extracted from the mangosteen fruit
nor synthetic xanthones added to the formulation. This is critical to preserve the integrity of the xanthones, since synthesis or extraction can cause some xanthones to lose their antioxidant potencies.
There are at least 40 xanthones indentified in the mangosteen fruit (garcinia cambogia). Two of the most powerful xanthones occur in the mangosteen fruit, especially it's rind. These powerful antioxidants are alpha mangostin and gamma mangostin. Numerous scientific studies were done with these two xanthones.
You are probably wondering what are the
health benefits of the mangosteen fruit juice and its powerful xanthones. There are literally scores of mangosteen
fruit juice health benefits users swear by.
You will have to try the
mangosteen fruit juice for yourself. I know there are many folks who are experiencing incredible mangosteen health benefits. I use it everyday in my orange juice and the energy and libido boost are real for me. However, the bottom line is mangosteen fruit xanthones research to back up a claim. If the research is there, you've got a winner. Click here to see xanthones research articles
with my personal summaries.
But, allow me to highlight just one very critical
xanthone health benefit. High cholesterol and it's related lipids have been implicated in the cause of heart attacks or heart disease. The main culprit of these lipids is LDL-cholesterol... the bad cholesterol. If your LDL numbers are high, you are at a high risk for heart disease. Compound this with other risk factors such as family history of heart disease, smoking, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc., and the chances of developing heart disease are quite high. This is a well accepted fact in the scientific and medical community. Now, how do mangosteen xanthones fit into the picture here? Xanthones research have shown that mangostin (a potent xanthone in the mangosteen fruit) inhibits the oxidation of LDL. In simple terms, this helps to prevent plaque formation in arteries which can cause blockage and lead to a heart attack or heart disease.
Dr. Templeman writes:
"The degree of lowering of LDL equal or exceeds that obtained with some commercial drug preparations.... without the serious side effects of anti cholesterol drugs." J. Frederick Templeman, MD, Author of Mangosteen, The X-Factor
The mangosteen fruit rind (pericarp) has been used in poultices for centuries by natives of Southeast Asia to fight bacterial, fungal and inflammatory problems successfully. The modern research is now pouring in from around the world to confirm the fighting power of xanthones on bacteria and fungi. Here's what Dr. Meyer has to say....
"The clinically proven anti bacterial and anti inflammatory properties of the mangosteen fruit are well documented...... " Dr. John Meyer, Network Marketing Business Journal, May 2004 (Special Edition)
Now what I about to show you will blow your mind. The whole essence of mangosteen juice has to do with its powerful antioxidants, xanthones. I have a Q & A session to explain to you why mangosteen juice is really a breakthrough nutritional product and a super antioxidant food.
Why Is
Mangosteen Fruit Juice the Very Best?
ORAC: Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity...
a question and answer session with Narace D. Seudeal, Ph.D., Director, BetterLiving Research Institute
Q: Have you ever heard the term ORAC? What is it? What does it mean for the foods I eat?
A: ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity. This is just a fancy way of measuring the antioxidant “strength” of foods. The strength or ability to “mop up” damaging free oxygen radicals.
Q: In the name ORAC are the words ‘oxygen radical’. What are oxygen radicals? Why do we want to absorb them?
A: Oxygen radicals are products (chemicals) of chemical reactions that take place in our bodies. They are a part of your biochemistry and you cannot avoid them. These oxygen free radicals have been implicated in many disease processes in our bodies. They damage our cells by a process called oxidation. No tissue, organ or gland is spared of the damaging effects of these free radicals. If our bodies can absorb and stop these oxygen free radicals before they do damage, they won’t hurt us.
Q: What are some of the “bad effects” of oxygen radicals?
A: If you allow the oxygen radicals to roam freely in your bodies, sooner or later they’ll attack every cell, tissue, and organ to produce
… heart disease (especially, blockages leading to heart attacks)
… wrinkling of the skin
… cancers
… infections
… hormonal imbalances
... and many, many more conditions
Q: Is there anything I can do to stop the oxygen radical damage from happening in my body?
A: YES! We’ve got to find a “sponge” that mops up these oxygen radicals and take them out of commission. The easiest and most reliable way to do this is to introduce chemicals in the body to bind (react) with the oxygen radicals and render them inactive. That’s the role of antioxidants. They are the “mop up sponges” of the oxygen radicals. The stronger the antioxidants, the better the “mop up” job.
Q: So, what are some of these “mop up sponges” or antioxidants?
A: Usually plant foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, and nuts are the best sources of antioxidants. Brightly colored fruits and vegetables have the highest ORAC scores.
Q: How does XanGo rank as an antioxidant or “mop up sponge”?
A: I’ve listed a table of ORAC values (measure of oxygen radical “mop up” strength) below. Take a look at the value for XanGo. Just 1 oz. has 21,000 ORAC units. Tahitian Noni Juice is not even close (1,506). You will need to eat bucketfuls of fruits and vegetables and still not get to the ORAC value XanGo mangosteen fruit juice delivers with just one ounce of this beverage.

Dr. Sam Walters is a naturopatic doctor and has treated over 50,000 patients with all sorts of diseases and ailments. Here's what he has to say about XanGo mangosteen fruit juice...
"One of the greatest things you can do for your immune system is preventative care, consume natural foods that are rich in antioxidants, foods with a high ORAC value. ORAC is a way to measure how many oxygen radicals a specific food can absorb. The more oxygen radicals a specific food can absorb, the higher the ORAC score, and the higher the score the better it is at helping our bodies fight disease." Dr. Sam Walters, Network Marketing Business Journal, May 2004 (Special Edition)
"Mangosteen juice... is more than unique. I took a long, hard look at the enormous amount of research on the mangosteen fruit and the super antioxidant xanthones found in abundance in the mangosteen. In my 30 -year experience I have never encountered anything that has the amount of independent scientific research as that of the mangosteen fruit. Research from medical universities all over the world show the xanthones in the mangosteen contain elements that literally help correct and kill many diseases that occur today." Dr. Sam Walters, Network Marketing Business Journal, May 2004 (Special Edition)
Pretty powerful, isn't it?
Are you with me so far? Hope I haven't lost you with all the mangosteen xanthones research. You simply need to know. Okay, what are the other scientifically documented health benefits of these super antioxidants xanthones in mangosteen
juice?
XANTHONES HEALTH BENEFITS
- Antiinflammatory – is known to inhibit swelling, tenderness, edema and pain
