XanGo™ 100% Mangosteen Juice
The Mangosteen (Garcinia Mangostana) originates from tropical areas of South East Asia and has been used in traditional Asian medicine for centuries. Much recent scientific research has been conducted on the mangosteen and the beneficial properties of the Pericarp (rind). This beautiful dark purple fruit with its white segmented interior, contains the potent antioxidant power of Xanthones.
These Xanthones carry a host of health benefits and although some other fruits are also antioxidant rich, none are found to be as powerful as the mangosteen. Other vitamins and minerals include magnesium, zinc, potassium and vitamins C and B1.
XanGo™ 100% mangosteen juice is not produced from concentrate and is preservative and pesticide free. There are no artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners and is made using the “whole fruit technique”. Supplying yourself with quality “anti-aging” whole food antioxidants along with a healthy diet is your first and best line of prevention against aging and disease.
What are Xanthones?
Xanthones are polyphenolic compounds (antioxidants) that occur naturally in nature. There are around 200 known xanthones and over 40 of the most powerful are found in the mangosteen’s Pericarp (rind). This makes mangosteen very unique as compared to any other “super” fruit.
In every 30ml dose of Xango Mangosteen Juice there is no less than 15 mlg of xanthones, which makes our juice many times more potent than other mangosteen juices.
Medical Doctors and Scientists from around the world have discovered many useful medical properties from Xanthones including anti cancer effects in shrinking tumors, apart from many other medical benefits including-
  • anti aging
  • anti bacterial
  • can assist in lowering cholesterol
  • assists with skin conditions including acne
  • can assist in maintaining eye health
  • helps prevent constipation
  • supports a healthy cardiovascular system
  • anti inflammatory (supports cartilage and joint function)
Other diseases:
Hypertension, gastrointestinal health, diabetes, migraine headaches, kidney and bladder infections, depression/anxiety, dental health, women’s health and many more health problems. Xanthones in mangosteen are 20-30 times more powerful than any other fruit or vegetables.
The discovery of natural xanthones in mangosteen fruit is, therefore, the hope of modern medical scientists to take advantages of its healing properties to be benefit to the medication of some diseases as well as the development of medical products in the future. Currently, there are many research works worldwide which affirm the rich properties of xanthones to the human body.
  • Anti-oxidant Properties. Xanthones in Mangosteen is one of the most effective anti-oxidants found. The academic research worldwide indicates that Xanthones in mangosteen fruit has the most potency of anti-oxidants, 20-30 times better than any other fruits and vegetables.
  • Anti-biotic Properties. Xanthones in Mangosteen has anti- bacterial properties for both gram positive and gram negative bacterial. Moreover, it has the rich properties in inhibiting the increasing of outer cell virus which cannot be affected even by the antibiotics.
  • Anti-inflammatory Properties. Xanthones in Mangosteen can relieve the rheumatism found mostly in the elderly people. Xanthones inhibit the Cyclo-oxygenase1 (Cox-1) and Cyclo-oxygenase 2 (Cox-2) enzymes activities which are the key enzymes to produce a Prostaglandins which is the major cause of human inflammatory pathway. Moreover, it helps increasing human joint elasticity and reducing the rheumatism as well.
  • Relieves allergenic Properties. According to the academic researches, Xanthones encourages the Mass Cell to produce less of histamine which is the causes of human allergenic and to encourage the respiratory system to perform more effectively.
Centuries of accumulated knowledge of ancient Asian medicine has been passed down from generation to generation and scientists all over the world are now unlocking the secrets of this amazing and truly remarkable fruit. The complete mangosteen (rind and flesh) contains more than forty nutritionally active compounds called 'Xanthones'.
Xanthones are supercharged antioxidants that also have a powerful anti-inflammatory effect as well as building a strong immune system. Chronic inflammation and free radical damage are contributors to many known diseases.
Free radicals are dangerous substances found in our bodies as result of being exposed to environmental toxins. Free radicals (also called oxidants) have the ability to damage and destroy our organs, cells, and even our DNA. This damage can only be prevented by the regular consumption of an adequate number of powerful antioxidants. Inflammation, particularly chronic inflammation, is the second principal cause that many diseases share. For example, in some forms of dementia, free radicals damage the brain cells (neurons) first, but the body sends in an inflammatory response that actually causes many of the surrounding neurons to fail. Together, these two processes are responsible for the majority of today's debilitating and fatal diseases. The ideal nutritional supplement to fight and prevent disease would contain both natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds.
With over three decades of scientific laboratory studies to support its use, we know that the mangosteen may be helpful with the following problems:
  • Overall body health and wellness
  • Fatigue
  •  Aging (due to free radical exposure)
  • Immune function
  • Assists other supplements and antioxidants 
  • Allergies (may act as an antihistamine)
  • Heart & blood vessels 
  • Strengthening of heart muscle
  • Lowers cholesterol & triglyceride levels 
  • Hypertension (lowers high blood pressure)
  • Gastrointestinal Health
  • Ulcers
  • Crohn's disease 
  • Colitis may help with bowel inflammation
  • Musculoskeletal Health
  • Arthritis and joint health decreasing inflammation 
  • Headaches 
  • Migraine headaches
  • Sports health may decrease pain following minor injuries
  • Skin health
  • Dermatitis
  • Wound healing
  • Women’s health PMS/PMDD, menstrual pain
  • Emotional health depression / anxiety
  • Pulmonary health asthma / influenza
  • Brain and nerve health may protect neurons against damage
  • Acne (may be affective against the bacteria which causes acne)
  • Diaorrhea or constipation, Gastroesophageal reflux stabilizing stomach lining
  • Fibromyalgia (muscle pain, whole body inflammation, depression & anxiety)
  • Kidney and urinary tract health kidney disorders, bladder infections
  • Dental health gum disease (may promote gum healing)
  • Artherosclerosis (promoting blood vessel health by decreasing free radical damage and inflammation)
  • Vision: Glaucoma, cataracts (may prevent protein cross linking associated with glaucoma)
  • Cancer—DNA damage may help prevent free radical damage and resulting cell mutations & tumour growth
  • Diabetes elevated blood sugar levels (may help to decrease blood sugar in Type ll diabetes by making insulin more effective)
  • Irritable bowel syndrome helping to normalize serotonin transmission associated with depression and anxiety related bowel problems
  • Infections Xanthones from the mangosteen have been tested in laboratory settings and found very effective against some infectious agents and related problems including : viruses, bacteria, fungi, parasites, fevers.
Disclaimer
The Xanthones from the mangosteen have been shown in laboratory studies to be powerful antioxidants, anti-inflammatories and to have other special properties. However, laboratory results do not guarantee that the same will happen in the human body. Mangosteen is a nutritious fruit not a drug, and no therapeutic claims are made for this product.

Free Radicals
Free radicals are dangerous substances formed in our bodies as a result of being exposed to environmental toxins. Free radicals (also called oxidants) have the ability to damage and destroy our organs, cells, and even our DNA.
This damage can only be prevented by the regular consumption of an adequate number of powerful antioxidants. Inflammation, particularly chronic inflammation, is the second principal cause that many diseases share.
