The mangosteen is a fruit grown primarily in Southeast Asia and revered as the Queen of Fruits (Queen Victoria would offer Knighthood to anyone who would bring fresh supply). The scientific name is Garcinia mangostana and it is traditionally recognized for its enticing flavor and high value in folk medicine.

The dark purple rind was dried and ground and used to ward off infection. Ancient healers created an extract of the fruit to reduce fever. Poultices were made to treat parasitic skin infections. It has been used for centuries to treat dysentery, diarrhea, urinary tract infections, and eczema.

You're probably wondering why you haven't heard of it before. Surprisingly, until now the mangosteen fruit had never been properly introduced outside of its native region.

So What Do Xanthones Do, Exactly?

Xanthones are a family of the most vigorous phytonutrients and have been proven in many scientific studies to promote healthy bodily function. The whole mangosteen fruit, packed with naturally occurring xanthones, may help:

maintain intestinal health
strengthen the immune system
support cartilage and joint function
promote a healthy respiratory system
Over 40 of the xanthones from the mangosteen have been studied. Researchers are just beginning to uncover the powerful scientific properties behind xanthones. As new discoveries are made, centuries of traditional medicinal success are both validated and explained.
