Mangosteen -
Queen of Fruits
From the rainforests of Southeast Asia, the small mangosteen earns its nickname, "Queen of Fruits", with a taste that is indescribably blissful and health benefits that are off the charts.Mangosteen is the fruit of an evergreen tree, Garcinia mangostana, that is native to Malaysia and Indonesia. The people value this exceptional fruit for its premium taste and heavenly flavor.
In fact, when Queen Victoria tasted this imported delicacy in the mid-1800s, she promptly declared it her favorite fruit. Folklore holds that Queen Victoria offered a knighthood (unclaimed) to anyone who could bring her back an unspoiled one to try from the Indies.
It inspired a lengthy commendation from David Fairchild in his 1930 work Exploring for Plants, which ends as follows:
...there is nothing to mar the perfection of this fruit, unless it be that the juice from the rind forms an indelible stain on a white napkin. Even the seeds are partly or wholly lacking, and when present are very thin and small. (1930, as quoted in Popene, 1932, in The Oxford Companion to Food, 1999).

Xanthones
While the scientific community has been studying the benefits of the Mangosteen for decades, no one had thought to
bring these incredible benefits to the world in a potent, convenient form, until now.
Although readily available in season throughout Southeast Asia, until now the mangosteen fruit in its whole form has
never been commercially available in North America.
What's remarkable is that the mangosteen-not just the inner flesh, but the whole fruit-represents the single greatest known supply of the tremendously beneficial xanthones.
The pericarp, or rind, of the mangosteen is particularly rich in xanthones, which represent the next generation of powerful phytonutrients that will change the future of dietary supplements. |

The
Mangosteen Tree
The slow growing mangosteen tree, is believed to have originated in the Sunda
Islands. Limited to tropical zones with abundant rainfall, the mangosteen tree takes 10 years to mature and bear fruit. Fully mature trees can be up to 80 feet tall, and may produce thousands of individual fruits each year. |

Mangosteen History
For centuries, healers of India, China, Malaysia,
Thailand, the Philippines, and Vietnam have used the
mangosteen botanical, for it's health benefits.
The outer rind of the fruit contains the most significant Xanthones and antioxidants which are not system-specific, but pan-systemic or good for the entire body. With no negative side effects
found, it is a perfect source for a natural health supplement. |
