Is Mangosteen Safe? Find Out!

People who have never heard of mangosteen often ask me, is mangosteen safe? My answer is yes. There are just a few exceptions I’ve run across, and please note, this is regarding “pure mangosteen”. In rare instances, some people are allergic to it. The way you can tell is that you develop itchiness, sometimes severe. One option is to stop taking the supplement for 2 weeks, and then try again, cutting the dosage in half. The only other known health risk is if you are taking Coumadin, or Crystalline warfarin sodium, it is a blood thinner or anti- coagulant, often used in heart patients. Please consult your physician if you are taking Coumadin and are considering taking a mangosteen supplement.

Mangosteen Recommended by Dr. Oz

Mangosteen in in fact recommended by DR. Oz. Let me be clear here, Dr. Oz Does Not recommend or endorse any particular brand or company. I saw a recent TV clip where he recommended mangosteen as a # 3 food / supplement that can offer good health benefits.

Number one on his list was consuming the purple sweet potato, having the highest antioxidant potency over other sweet potatoes. In other sweet potatoes and yams, the deeper the yellow or orange color, the higher the concentration of beta carotene. Number 2 was Omega 3, especially DHA. He mentioned that in his personal regimen of supplements was a good quality multi-vitamin from a large company, a calcium, preferably 1000 mg and again Omega 3, the DHA Omega 3.

Does Mangosteen Have Any Nutritional Value?

That’s a good question, does Mangosteen have any nutritional Value?
The answer is yes, but not a great deal, but nutritional value is not the main reason for a person to consume this supplement.. The fruit is delicious, being described as tasting something like a cross between a peach, pineapple, and some say strawberry with hints of a vanilla ice cream flavor. Fresh Mangosteen fruit is extremely hard to find in the U.S, and usually very pricey. The fruit is small, and by the time you get the fruit out of the rind, and each segment usually contains a seed, their is not much left to eat.

Mangosteen for Sinus Problems – Benefits

There are a variety of reasons why it makes sense to try Mangosteen for sinus problems and sinus infections. Two of the properties of the fruit are that is has anti- bacterial and anti-fungal properties, and anti-allergenic properties. I personally have numerous customers that have had great success using Mangosteen supplementation for asthma, but in all truth that this may be a somewhat different issue. The good news of course is that if this supplement helps your sinus issues, you may be able to avoid anti-histamines, steroid nasal sprays, corticosteroids, and decongestants, whether prescription or over the counter.

Mangosteen Detox – How Does It Work?

That would be an unquestionable yes, mangosteen detox works, and works well. Medicine and science agree that free radical damage in our bodies is where most sickness and disease find their nesting ground, then leading to chronic low grade inflammation and the trouble takes off from there. It is said that on a daily basis approximately 500,000 cells in our body and 50,00 new cells generate, which of course part of the aging process.

Mangosteen and Your Health and Wellness

Mangosteen and wellness seem to make more sense the more research I do. It is becoming an accepted fact that free radical damage and chronic low grade inflammation are at the root of so many of our health challenges today. The 40 some different xanthones found in the mangosteen fruit, each xanthone with a different antioxidant property, and the other phytonutrients working together are showing to be powerful antioxidants. Xanthones have shown in tests to also be effective COX-2 inhibitors, the inflammation part of the equation.

– Mangosteen Being Processed

Mangosteen – What’s in Your Supplement?

There are now a number of mangosteen products on the market, however the only supplier I deal with provides my company with a product made pure mangosteen rind or the pericarp, very potent and very affordable. The mangosteen is grown on farms using no pesticides or dangerous chemical.Not anywhere near MLM prices. Our product could be certified organic if it was grown here in the U.S. In all of my research, it is the only one shown to have the possibility of significant health benefits. The mangosteen is a very delicate fruit, and through 7 years of product research and development it has been determined that the only way to bring a truly beneficial product to market was by leaving it in as natural a state as possible with minimal processing.
