GreatAsia Mangosteen Juice

PLEASE NOTE:
Mangosteen Juice is supplement and it’s not a drug!
Mangosteen Juice is safe for use by children and adults under almost any condition….

Look at the available science research on the mangosteen on the internet..
It is always recommended that you should consult with your physician or other qualified health provider, if you have know medical condition or allergy before using it


1. Breast Cancer
The researcher found Mangosteen extract powder has strong inhibited the growth of breast cancer cells, potent antioxidant and has potential for cancer chemoprevention.

2. Leukemia
The researcher examined the effects of six xanthones from mangosteen pericarp, on the cell growth inhibition of human leukemia cell line HL60. All xanthones displayed growth inhibitory effects. Among them, alpha-mangostin showed complete inhibition.

3. Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
The researcher found alpha- and beta-mangostins and garcinone B from mangosteen extract exhibited strong inhibitory effect against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB).

4. Liver ,gastric ,and lung cancer
The researcher extracted purified 6 xanthone compounds from the mangosteen rinds (peel)and tested on 14 different human cancer cell lines. The results have shown that one of the xanthone derivatives which could be identified as garcinone E has potent cytotoxic effect (kill cells) on all liver cancer cell lines as well as on the other gastric and lung cancer cell lines.

5. Allergies
Mangosteen extract powder has potent inhibitory activities of both histamine release and prostaglandin E2 synthesis. This has importance role in preventing allergies.

6. Reduce Pain & Inflammation
Researchers studied the effect of gamma-mangostin, a xanthone contained in the mangosteen fruit. They found that it can reduced inflammation results (reduced pain). The researchers tested 18 xanthone derived compounds found in the mangosteen fruit and found that some of these compounds possessed strong anti-inflammatory properties.

7. Anti Bacteria
Researchers studied Polysaccharides that were extracted from the dried ground pericarp of mangosteen fruit. The results show that polysaccharides in the extract can stimulate phagocytic cells to kill intracellular bacteria (S. enteritidis). Researchers found that the extracts of Garcinia mangostana shown inhibitory effects against the growth of Staphylococcus aureus.

8. Reduce LDL Cholesterol
Oxidative damage is thought to play a critical role in cardiovascular (involving the heart and blood vessels) and other chronic diseases. This has led to considerable interest in the antioxidant activity of dietary compounds. However, little is known about the antioxidant activity of other plant derived phenolic compounds such as the xanthones. We have previously shown that the prenylated xanthone, mangostin, can inhibit the oxidation of low density lipoprotein. Researchers studied more xanthone derived compounds and the results of this study show that structural modification of mangostin can have a profound effect on antioxidant activity. The oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) may play an important role in atherosclerosis. We investigated the possible antioxidant effects of mangostin, isolated from Garcinia mangostana. The results, the researchers conclude that mangostin is acting as a free radical scavenger to protect the LDL from oxidative damage in this in vitro system.

9. Anti –Cancer
The researchers investigated the cell death effects of eight xanthones on cancer cells. Among these compounds, alpha-mangostin, from the fruit hull of mangosteen had the most potent ability to cause the cancer cells death.

10. Prevent Heart Disease & Blood Pressure
The researchers studied a series of xanthones and related compounds. All the compounds tested exhibited effective hypotensive (lower blood pressure) activity in anesthetized rats.

11. Blood Sugar Levels prevention
Mangiferin (MF),xanthone, was tested for antidiabetic activity in mice, an animal model of type-2 diabetes., it seems likely that MF exerts its antidiabetic activity by decreasing insulin resistance.

12. Blood Clotting
Mangosteen extra
ct powder has potent inhibit on thromboxane formation (antithrombotic or anti clotting)

13. Anti convulsant
Researchers studied compounds of xanthone derivatives. They found several xanthones were found to be active in anticonvulsant tests.

14. Anti Malaria
The researcher showed the antimalarial potency of xanthones studied

15. Skin condition
Mangosteen has been used as a Thai indigenous medicine for many years to solve the skin problems such as problem of inflammation like eczema and dermatitis infection, wound, acne , sun damage.

16. Immune system
Mangosteen can support and boost immune system and help our bodies healthy and strong.

17. Nervous system
Mangosteen can effect the prevention and treatment of Parkinson and Alzheimer by decreasing oxidative damage and inflammation.
