PubMed Results For Xanthones As They Relate To Breast Cancer

Thanks to Karen Veverka for forwarding the following information:

Hi Team,

Below is the latest post (June 18, 2008)from PubMed regarding the xanthones found in the PERICARP of the Mangosteen fruit (which is the MAIN INGREDIENT in our juice) as it relates to breast cancer.

Remember, others may use the "juice" of the "fruit" and list it as a last ingredient but WE USE THE WHOLE FRUIT PUREE (which means the PERICARP) as our FIRST ingredient.

VERY PROMISING!

Share it!

Xanthones from the Botanical Dietary Supplement Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) with Aromatase Inhibitory Activity.

Balunas MJ, Su B, Brueggemeier RW, Kinghorn AD.

kinghorn.4@osu.edu.

Twelve xanthone constituents of the botanical dietary supplement mangosteen (the pericarp of Garcinia mangostana) were screened using a noncellular, enzyme-based microsomal aromatase inhibition assay. Of these compounds, garcinone D ( 3), garcinone E ( 5), alpha-mangostin ( 8), and gamma-mangostin ( 9) exhibited dose-dependent inhibitory activity. In a follow-up cell-based assay using SK-BR-3 breast cancer cells that express high levels of aromatase, the most potent of these four xanthones was gamma-mangostin ( 9). Because xanthones may be consumed in substantial amounts from commercially available mangosteen products, the consequences of frequent intake of mangosteen botanical dietary supplements require further investigation to determine their possible role in breast cancer chemoprevention.

IRS raises mileage tax deduction 16%; now it's 58.5 cents

Great news for home-based business owners! I found this article on ChicagoTribune.com.

By Ryan J. Donmoyer |Bloomberg News

2:20 PM CDT, June 23, 2008

The U.S. Internal Revenue Service increased the mileage deduction for the rest of the year by 16 percent to 58.5 cents a mile because of the rising price of gasoline.

"Given the increase in prices, the IRS is adjusting the standard mileage rates to better reflect the real cost of operating an automobile," said IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman. "We want the reimbursement rate to be fair to taxpayers."

The national unleaded average gasoline price has been above $4 for most of June, according to AAA. Gasoline is more expensive than last year by $1.09 per gallon.

The mid-year IRS adjustment allows Americans to use the higher deduction amount from July 1-Dec. 31 instead of cataloguing actual costs of operating a vehicle for qualified purposes.

The mileage deduction for the first half of the year was 50.5 cents per mile. The 58.5 cents per mile deduction applies to business use of a personal vehicle. Drivers who use their vehicles for medical reasons or to move can deduct 27 cents per mile, up from 19 cents in the first half of the year. The use of a vehicle for charitable purposes is set by law at 14 cents and wasn't increased.

Employees who drive their own cars for work-related or charitable purposes can choose to deduct or seek reimbursement from their employer or the charity they serve for actual costs incurred, requiring extensive record-keeping. They also can claim the mileage rate.

Dr. Miller call updates, and some sound advice

Thanks to Fifi Cheek for the following information:


Dr. Miller and I have made a decision to suspend the monthly Mangosteen Call for the next several months due to travel and time constraints. Therefore, please help us get the word out since this is effective immediately beginning with the July call !

I 'd like to take this opportunity to share a few of our observations with you that I think may be a helpful reminder for everyone ......... Dr. Miller and I have both noticed that, other than a few very rare diseases that come up from time to time, the majority of the questions each month pertain to many of the same diseases that not only have been addressed on all the prior calls but are also covered in general on Dr. Miller's "Mangosteen Q&A" CD and also in his "Serving & Guidelines" brochure.

Many people are literally waiting several weeks to a whole month to get an answer for someone's question about their personal situation rather than realizing that this is just a FRUIT ........ powerful AND with no negative side effects ...... but, just a FOOD .......and people just need to give it a try !!!! Yes, the amount needed may vary which is why one needs to listen to their own body and play around with amounts until they begin to see some relief........but remembering that these Xanthones have powerful medicinal properties and it's important to give the body time as it begins it's own process towards higher health.

I think what I am trying to stress is that it ultimately does not matter so much what name Western medicine has given a particular set of symptoms because all DIS - EASE is exactly what it implies ........ the body is out of balance (generally due to physical inflammation as a result of stress !) so we drink the juice to give our body what it needs to restore balance so the body can begin to do what it's designed to do, which is heal itself !

My feeling is that it's imperative that we keep this as simple as possible just sharing from our hearts about the mangosteen gift we have and then sharing some of the amazing doctor's CD's and educational tools that we have available to us and allowing it to be simple AND duplicateable.

Many thanks to Dr. Albert Miller for his knowledge and time to help us all over the last year and a half. I'd also like to thank each and every one of you for your participation and tremendous support on all the calls. Many of these past calls are archived and available at www.247audios.com .

Please help us by getting this information out to everyone quickly since the next call would have been July 1 !!!

Blessings of perfect health and abundance,

Fifi Cheek

Mangosteen Desk Reference

This is a great book by Kenneth Finsand, which will give you details about how mangosteen effects all of the body systems. It is great to have on-hand, to answer questions about specific health problems, and it is a must-have to insure proper intake of mangosteen juice per day.

It was recommended to me by my upline, and has come in quite handy.

Enjoy!

Mangosteen Juice - The Truth Is In The Taste

Here is an article written by David McFarlane for ArticleBiz.com.

What is Mangosteen Juice?

It is juice made from the fruit of the mangosteen tree. That is the short (and smart aleck) answer. Mangosteen juice is also a nutritional supplement with powerful health benefits.

Mangosteen trees are probably native to Southeast Asia. That is where they grow best. They are difficult to cultivate in the Western hemisphere, and they require a subtropical climate, with temperatures never dropping below 45°F. The fruit is delicate and does not ship well. It does not process well, either, and breaks down with as little as ten minutes of pasteurization time.

To get your hands on fresh mangosteen, you have to go where it grows or pay a hefty price for a frozen mangosteen. There is a story that one high-end hotel had a crate of frozen mangosteens shipped to them, and sold them as a menu item for around $100 each—for a plum-sized fruit.

You can still get the health benefits of mangosteen by drinking mangosteen juice. This juice is made by pulping the entire fruit, straining it and pasteurizing the juice. It is important to get juice that is made from the entire fruit, because most of the health benefits are in the hull.

Mangosteen juice is the richest source of xanthones (a powerful type of antioxidant) on the planet. Antioxidants work at the cellular level, so they improve the health of all of your body systems.

Benefits of Mangosteen Juice

We do not know for sure what all of the benefits of mangosteen juice are yet. Research is being done, but the results are preliminary, so we cannot say for certain which of the claims made about mangosteen juice are true.

We do know that mangosteen juice is a potent antioxidant, and antioxidants prevent cell damage from free radicals. We also know that antioxidants are more effective when we get them from fruits and vegetables than when we take a processed supplement.

Antioxidants, such as those found in mangosteen juice, lower cholesterol levels and contribute to cardiovascular health. They may prevent some kinds of cancer. Some of the xanthones in mangosteen juice are Cox-2 inhibitors, similar to the ones found in arthritis medications.

Antioxidants decrease inflammation and improve immunity. They may improve brain function and they help with stomach and intestinal problems. Antioxidants improve the function of every cell in your body. Indeed, mangosteen juice is a flavorful, healthy way to get a load of xanthones. Drinking antioxidant mangosteen juice is one step you can take for better health.
