 Mangosteen is loaded with powerful antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and antibiotic compounds.
Scientific research shows that Mangosteen contains a class of naturally occurring polyphenol compounds known
as xanthones. These xanthones are found in the ripe dark purple rind (called pericarp) of the fruit. The rind
of partially ripe Mangosteen fruit yields a polyhydroxy-xanthone derivative termed mangostin, also
beta-mangostin. Fully ripe fruits contains the xanthones gartanin, beta-disoxygartanin, and normangostin.
According to research reported in professional journals such as Free Radical Research and the Journal of
Pharmacology, these amazing Xanthones have a remarkably beneficial effect on cardiovascular health. They also have
properties which help to heal cells damaged by free radicals, slow aging, and ward off degenerative diseases and
physical and mental deterioration. Xanthones also demonstrate the most powerful antioxidantive properties found in
nature as well as being naturally antibiotic, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory.
