Health Benefits of Mangosteen

Due to its superior nutritional, antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, astringent and anti-inflammatory properties, the mangosteen fruit has been used by natural healing practitioners in China, Singapore, Malaysia, India, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam for hundreds if not thousand of years. Various forms of the peri carp or rind have been used to treat diarrhea, dysentery, digestive disorders, eczema, psoriasis and other skin conditions. Mangosteen twigs are used as chew sticks in Ghana.

Modern day science has recently begun to appreciate the incredible, nutrient-rich value of mangosteen and its wide-reaching, health-promoting properties. We now know, for example, that mangosteen contains a number of vitamins and minerals in trace amounts. Mangosteen also contains the following compounds: polysaccharides, quinones, stilbenes and xanthones. This combination of plant compounds is unique.

Some medical practitioners have begun using mangosteen for the following problems:

Digestive problems, as previous noted and now irritable bowel syndrome
Various headache including migraine headaches
Mild depression
Mild to moderate stress related diseases including anxiety disorders
Allergies
Anti-aging
Joint problems including arthritis
Skin conditions, as previous noted
Some viral, bacterial or fungal infections
Dementia
PMS and other menopausal or post menopausal problems
Cancer, in addition to standard therapies
Cystic fibrosis
Hemorrhoids
Low energy and chronic fatigue
Sleep disorders
Blood sugar problems incl. Diabetes
Various chronic pain related issues
Colitis and Crohn’s disease
Asthma
Inflammatory problems
Gastro-intestinal problems
Immune System support

While this list may seem somewhat outrageous to you, it isn’t uncommon for certain vitamins, minerals or herbs to help so many things. You may wish to visit the testimonial page to read about some people who have benefited from drinking mangosteen juice.

All natural fruit, herbs and remedies will affect people differently because our body chemistry's are different. So, don't give up! If one doesn't seem to work for you, try another. That being said, if you aren't having an adverse reaction to any particular remedy, make sure you try it for 60-90 days to give it a fair trial. Frequently some results can be noticed within weeks, but many take a little longer. Be patient.
