A Taste of Heaven
Did you know that when Queen Victoria first tasted the Mangosteen fruit in the mid-1800s, she immediately declared it her favorite fruit? Were she alive today, she would be overjoyed to find that the Mangosteen is now available in the form of a delicious nutritional supplement. In Southeast Asia , the Mangosteen is known as the "Queen of Fruits" and "Fruit of the Gods." The sweet, mild-tasting fruit tantalize the taste buds of all who try it.
The Mangosteen is one of the most praised tropical fruits of Southeast Asia . The flesh is acclaimed as exquisitely luscious and delicious. While it is highly valued for its flavor, the pericarp (or rind) has been used for all kinds of conditions, going back generations. It ripens only twice a year and has been used for generations in its native land. About the size of a small peach, its dark purple rind surrounds the most beautiful white fruit that you can imagine. The mangosteen is ultra-tropical. It cannot tolerate temperatures below 40º F. The fruit of the Mangosteen is incredibly delicious with flavor that is sweet and slightly tart.
How could something so delicious be good for you too? While the Mangosteen may have been unknown to western taste buds, the amount of scientific research done on the fruit and the pericarp (or rind) is astounding.
Scientists have learned that the mangosteen is an extremely good source of powerful chemical compounds called Xanthones, which have been examined closely by research teams for possible health benefits to virtually every system of the body.
How could a fruit like mangosteen be so unknown to most of the world, yet be so heavenly delicious and so rich in beneficial properties? Richer in antioxidant properties than even vitamins C and E. Xanthones have undergone much scientific research for their various beneficial qualities. Mangosteen is an exceedingly delicious dietary supplement that exemplifies the coming together of age old wisdom and modern technology.
While the original inhabitants of Southeast Asia could see the effects of using the mangosteen, they had no idea what made those results possible. Today we know that the mangosteen is a phenomenal source of Xanthones, powerful antioxidants with a multitude of healthful properties.
Xanthones are from a family of phyto-nutrients that offer a number of notable qualities. Two of the most powerful Xanthones, alpha mangostin and gamma mangostin, are found in the mangosteen, most noticeably in the pericarp (or rind). Studies are showing that xanthones have positive effects on nearly all of the body's systems. From increased energy to protection from free radical damage, xanthones deliver a wide range of benefits.
Researchers are also looking at antioxidants to possibly prevent cognitive decline. Antioxidants, such as vitamin E, vitamin C and carotene, may help break down free radicals-cell-damaging compounds that are by-products of normally functioning cells. The nat ural defenses of cells protect against these compounds, but these protective mechanisms decline as a person ages.
