Mangosteen (MRP $15.95)
Mangosteen has been used by some countries for decades and science has yet to completely unveil it’s secrets. Of particular interest to researchers are a group of antioxidant chemicals called xanthones found within the Mangosteen hulls or thick peels. These xanthonescan have a positive effect on preventing atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries. Scientist in India and Japan began investigating Mangosteenin in the 1990’s and demonstrated Mangosteen has powerful anti-inflammatory products, anti ulcer and anti allergic properties.
Our Mangosteen is manufactured from the fruit’s peel/hulls since this is where xanthones are found in concentrated amounts versus the fruit. if we were to use the fruit, or other fruits, then the peels xanthones content would be diluted. The peel is the covering of the Mangosteen fruit that keeps the moisture inside and the fruit from dehydrating. Since the peel is not naturally water soluble, why try to put it in a liquid? In comparison to some liquid products, which are mostly water, they are made from the whole fruit with less amount of peel, One capsules contain Mangosteen peel/hull powder without and fillers, colors, flavors, or preservatives added.
