Mangosteen And Allergies

8/20/2007 -- Allergies - Trevor & Christa from Nebraska

Our two sons, ages 6 & 7, have had allergies ever since we have moved from the Carolinas to the Nebraska. They used to take a half a tablet of Claritin every day in the morning to help with their symptoms. Since they have been drinking one ounce of the “Mangosteen Juice” they haven’t had to take any Claritin for allergies. Also my wife's migraines have diminished since she has been drinking the Mangosteen Juice. As for myself, I am self employed with a crazy work schedule so my hours are always all over the board. I could never get a good nights rest because I would wake up several times a night. No more, I sleep through the night now thanks to this great Mangosteen Juice. I also tore the Cartilage in my left knee playing basketball 5 months ago. I was in some serious pain but I never had any inflation. When I went to see the Doctor the next day he couldn't believe there wasn't any swelling. I took a train ride to Chicago the day after my injury with my Mangosteen Juice bottle in hand. I was walking on my knee with in 24 hours and now I am back to playing basketball. Thank GOD for the Queen of Fruits, "the Mangosteen".

Mangosteen Knee Pain

I had major knee surgery 30 years ago. I have lived with pain for a very long time. It was very difficult to climb stairs with the pain.

When I started drinking Mangosteen Juice, my pain stopped within 2 weeks. I am now playing softball and running some, with NO PAIN. This is great for me.

Mangosteen Asthma

Growing up with asthma resulting in shortness of breath and limited physical activity has been a way of life with me. I have been on many medications. Some of them have had side effects and adverse reactions that were severe.

What a gift from God to find the whole fruit mangosteen juice. I am no longer on any medication and am faithfully taking my juice two to three times every day. It tastes good and I would not live without it.

Deborah from Idaho -- 7/7/07

Mangosteen Migraine / Arthritis / IBS / Irritable Bowel Syndrome / Headaches

In December of 2006 I had recently started getting shots for migraines and was really scared I was headed down the same path my younger sister has been on for the last 19 years. So, I decided to try the Mangosteen juice I had been sent information on.

I have arthritis in my neck and I.B.S. (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). Within 2 weeks I notice a difference in my neck and I have not had a head ache since. My IBS is under control.

My whole family is on Mangosteen juice and I am telling everyone I know about Mangosteen juice.

CHRIS: BEATING STAGE 4 BRAIN CANCER

After suffering from headaches for months, I had a seizure in late September of 2006. When I awoke, I learned that I had been out for 1 1/2 days! In that time I was air flown to UCSF for emergency surgery to remove 2 tumors, a golf ball sized and another smaller one, from the left side of my brain. Unfortunately, a 3rd tumor could not be removed, as that would have left me unable to talk and possibly paralyze my entire left side. This tumor was of a kind known as a Glioblastoma multiforme tumor. I researched it online. Here is an excerpt from a Wikipedia definition:

Glioblastoma multiforme

(GBM), also known as grade 4 astrocytoma, is the most common

and aggressive type of primary brain tumor, accounting for 52% of all primary brain tumor cases and 20% of all intracranial tumors. Despite being the most prevalent form of primary brain tumor, GBM's occur at only 2-3 cases per 100,000 people in Europe and North America. Treatment can involve chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery; all of which are acknowledged as palliative measures, meaning that they do not provide a cure. The five year survival rate of the disease has remained unchanged over the past 30 years, and stands at less than three percent. Even with complete surgical resection of the tumor, combined with the best available treatment, the survival rate for GBM remains very low.

I was told that I had 6 months to live. Within 6 weeks, I was on chemo and radiation therapies with no effect. In fact, my first MRI results from this showed that the tumor had actually DOUBLED in size!

I put out an email to my local community asking if anyone knew of anything that may help me. Richard is a friend that had just been introduced to Mangosteen Juice himself and learned that it was effective in a number of areas, including the breaking down of tumors. He said he didn't know if it would work for me, but perhaps I would be open to trying it. I laughed. "Rich, my doctors gave me six months to live! You bet I will try it!"

I went on the '21 day challenge', drinking 1 bottle a day for 21 days, along with plenty of filtered water. After 11 days of drinking the juice, I had my second MRI. I couldn't believe it! My tumor had SHRUNK and all cancer activity in my brain STOPPED! I was screaming with joy and called all my friends and relatives! My parents were in tears!

Earlier, when it was first suggested that I do chemo to combat the tumor, I was told that one of the side effects was death! To me, that was not an option and I decided to stop all chemo and radiation therapies.

I continued drinking the mangosteen juice, cutting back to 1/2 bottle a day for the next month. My next MRI came in showing the tumor continuing to shrink. I was so excited! I am getting my life back! This tumor does not have a chance!

During my 1Oth week of drinking the juice, I went in to get my fourth MRI. The radiologist was too busy to meet with me. Fortunately, I was with a friend that had experience reading MRI's so we rushed on home to look at it on my laptop computer. We were puzzled with what we saw, or rather DIDN’T see. Calling the radiologist, I asked why I didn’t see anything on this MRI. He pulled it up on his screen, looked at it and laughed. "That is because IT’S NOT THERE! You NO LONGER HAVE A TUMOR,

my friend!" My oncologist was stunned as well! I could not believe it! MY TUMOR WAS GONE! I spent the rest of the day and into the evening calling all of my relatives and friends! Originally, my doctors told me that I should have been DEAD 2 months ago! I have my LIFE back!

I continue drinking the Mangosteen juice as a preventative. I also highly recommend maintaining an alkaline diet, and meditation to keep a positive outlook on your future. I don’t know if this miracle juice will do the same for anyone out there suffering from a tumor, but am I glad that Richard introduced it to me. If not, I probably would not be here today.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story. I am grateful for every day of my life!

Sincerely,

Chris

How to eat a mangosteen

The mangosteen fruit is still quite rare in the West, but has been highly regarded in Southeast Asia for centuries for it's excellent taste and medicinal properties. Known as the "Queen of Fruits", (not the "King", as the announcer mistakenly calls it) this unusual delicacy should be properly prepared, as the video shows.


VideoJug: How To Eat A Mangosteen

Gene Erickson and The Taste of Life

A while back, I posted a testimonial about a man named Gene Erickson who got great results using mangosteen. Now there is a video with Gene telling his own story, so I thought I would re-post the article with the updated video.

Here it is:

Mangosteen: The Taste of Life



Here is a testimony about a man who got great results from using mangosteen. Keep in mind that I am not a doctor, and I DO NOT claim that these results can be achieved by anyone, or that anyone should disregard the advice of a doctor to treat symptoms of any illness. If drinking mangosteen juice makes you feel better, by all means, continue drinking it.

A wife's 'Mangosteen Juice' Story.

About six months ago my husband became ill, his whole body and joints were racked with pain. Some mornings his hands were so swollen that they were useless until he massaged them for hours. He had no energy or appetite and he was drastically losing weight. The doctors were doing blood tests, lung x-rays and prostate exams. They ruled out cancer, but they could not find what was wrong. They said that it was possibly rheumatoid arthritis. They prescribed an anti inflammatory drug called NAPROXEN.

That relieved a lot of the swelling and pain.

After a several months the situation was getting worse instead of better. The medication was affecting his stomach so he was prescribed an over the counter drug called Zantax. He, also started taking some well known dry vitamins as well as a liquid vitamin.

The doctors decided to do a test that would require that he be off of all drugs (except for over the counter pain relievers) for seven days. My husband was in sheer agony!

My friend had spoken about 'Mangosteen Juice' several times previous. We were skeptical, but we decided that it was worth a try. So she provided us with a bottle and he immediately began taking 2 ounces in the morning and two ounces at night.

About a week later he had his color back! He had a lot more energy, some of his appetite and he was able to cut back to one Naproxen a day!

He was just about out of the 'Mangosteen Juice' but, he still had the dry vitamins as well as the liquid vitamins. So we didn't get another bottle.

It wasn't very many days after he finished the 'Mangosteen Juice' before the pain and swelling were back. He was lacking energy and he had to start taking the full dose of Naproxen and Zantec AGAIN!

Needless to say we hurried to get more 'Mangosteen Juice'. At this writing in the last month (December 2004) my husband has only had to take a total of 3 Naproxen pills - IN THE WHOLE MONTH!

I am also taking 'Mangosteen Juice' and my energy has increased beyond belief. I now sing 'Mangosteen Juice' to everyone I know and meet!!!!!!!

XanGo Receives Top Research Honors at 2007 Natural Products Trade Show

NPIcenter (press release) - Mississauga, Ontario, Canada

2007-08-02 - XanGo, LLC

LEHI, UT- Aug. 1, 2007- XanGo, LLC, recognized creator and market leader of the mangosteen supplement category, was honored for its latest mangosteen research at the 70th annual natural products trade show, Natural Marketplace 2007, in Las Vegas. The Natural Products Association awarded first place to the team led by Edward Walker, Ph.D., from Weber State University, for their poster session on the HPLC analysis of selected xanthones in the mangosteen fruit. Walker's work, in conjunction with XanGo, established a credible standard for testing and measuring xanthones in the whole mangosteen fruit.

Walker's team utilized an 80:20 acetone/water mixture to extract the xanthones from dried, ground whole mangosteen fruit rind. The mangosteen rind is considered nature's most concentrated source of xanthones, a family of phytonutrients that possess potent antioxidant properties.

"XanGo congratulates Dr. Walker and the research team for this outstanding accomplishment," said XanGo's Chief Marketing Officer John Digles. "We are dedicated to leading our category with credible research of the complete mangosteen fruit. This award-winning research, published in the June Journal of Separation Science, ensures more consistent and reliable marketing of mangosteen products to consumers relative to claims of xanthone content."

Greetings,

My name is Jo Ann Dorris, but call me Jody. I’m 60 years old and 10 years ago I was told I had rheumatoid arthritis. It has been a struggle, as I have always worked hard and been athletic. This illness has taught me humility. My knees swell up as big as basketballs and have to be drained of fluid. My wrists and hands have been so bad that I could not lift a cup of coffee, turn a doorknob, or squeeze shampoo out of a bottle. Almost impossible to lift my hands over my head to wash my hair or put on my clothes. I’ve had to have surgery on my wrists, also under my arms, because I got lymphoma from too much prednisone and cortisone shots and pills.

As you guessed I have too many problems to tell about. 24 hours of pain $2,700.00 a month in medication, that can actually kill me by damaging my liver, kidneys etc. To top it off I have 6 bulging discs in my back, and a narrowing of my spinal column that is pinching my syatic nerves.

Now you know some of my history. My brother called me late one night and wanted me to try (mangosteen juice) I have tried so many other things and nothing worked because rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune illness. He finally talked me into trying it, which wasn’t easy. My husband and my son made fun of me because I agreed to do so. If all the medications haven’t helped me, how could this juice help? My brother made it clear to me that the juice will not cure rheumatoid arthritis or my back problems, but that it would help my immune system and help me manage my pain.

I have been taking 3 oz. of juice a day now for 6 weeks. It’s hard to describe what is going on in my body, I’m not sure how the juice works, but it is. We were spending $2,700.00 a month on medicine. Arava pills, humara shots, prednisone,and cortisone shots, pain medicine, muscle relaxants, medicine for nervous leg and sleeping pills. The medicine and all of their side effects were as bad as the illness. I am now taking a pain pill once every few days, but none of the Arava, humara, prednisone or cortisone. I’m taking about 95% less medicine than I was. My pain is 75% less or more, my skin is soft again. I no longer have dark circles under my eyes. My hair is growing back. My face looks younger because my skin is no longer dry and drawn. I was giving myself shots of humara in my stomach every 2 weeks. In doing so my stomach was getting soft and spongy. That is going away. All the swelling in my joints are down, which is why I’m having so much less pain. I still get some pain. My rheumatoid arthritis is still there, but I no longer need muscle relaxants or sleeping pills because the pain is down and I can sleep without help. Other things are improving too, but enough.

I know all this seems impossible but as a christian all that I have told you is true. I’m now singing in the choir at church, which I just didn’t feel well enough to do before. I’m enjoying being around people again. My body feels so much better, that I’m happier and not nervous all the time. I will continue to take the juice and encourage others to try it. Not all will have the same results, but what do you have to lose? I’m sure that I’ll even see more good results the longer I take (mangosteen juice).

Sincerely yours,

Jody Dorris

Severe Migraine Headaches

26 yrs ago I launched a medical & surgical supply business in one of my husband's five pharmacies. Ironically, that began migraine headaches that got worse as I got older. They were consistently lasting 3 days out of every 10-12. I tried every new drug that could be prescribed, Xert, Immitrex. Fiorinal with codeine just to name a few. In Nov of 2002, I began taking this magical botanical juice that contains the entire husk pureed of Mangosteen. And over a period of about 3 months, I noticed that my headaches were becoming less frequent and less intense. Valentines Day was my 1 yr anniversary with no drugs and no migraines after 25 yrs of suffering. Just think, if this Mangosteen botanical can help only 50% of people who are in pain, what a difference this can make in people's quality of life. In addition, my physician had me tested for risk of stroke and/or heart attack due to my father dying at the age of 63 with a heart attack and my C-REATIVE PROTEIN score (new biomarker) was a 7.1. The highest my physician said she had anyone of her patients ever score (obviously not a good thing!). In February, when I returned for my yearly check-up, not only were my migraines gone, but also my lab results with my C-Reactive Protein score was DOWN TO a 0.3! Now that's undisputable, scientific proof that the Xanthones in Mangosteen did what most other course of treatment would not accomplish. - Sandi Cohen, P.S. AZ

I used to get three to four severe migraines a month. I've been getting these since I was around 10 years old. These were the full-blown aura and vomit inducing kind. Some would last for days. I've been to many doctors and nobody has a definite answer to it. The only answer that all of them had has been to prescribe some medication and that was that. I have grown up watching my mother suffer from these same migraines. She is frequently in the hospital emergency room or self-inducing Imitrex shots. I decided a long time ago that I would not take medications. They are not the solution. 2 months ago I was told about a product called Mangosteen Juice. Ever since then, neither I, or my mother have had a single episode. Brett T.

I was introduced to Mangosteen Juice by a lifelong friend who called me very excited about the positive results she was experiencing with her leg problem. I knew she had tried many different methods of treatment and nothing seemed to improve her leg. I was given a sample of Mangosteen Juice and was pleasantly surprised by the texture and flavor. It was delicious to the taste. A few days later, which happened to be Sunday, I awakened with a full-blown migraine. I have suffered with migraines most of my life and since I have such extreme adverse reactions to all medications this has been a challenge for me. I nursed the migraine all day long into the early morning hours on Monday.

I had been told Mangosteen Juice would help migraines and I thought this could be a good test for me. So I went back to Mangosteen Juice and asked for a sample bottle to take home. Upon arriving home I immediately took 1 to 2 ounces of the juice and within 15 minutes the pain was completely gone. Also, to my surprise the nausea feeling, which usually lingers for a day or so, was gone as well. As the day progressed I had a high level of energy, which I never have had before with a migraine. I am usually wiped out for a few days even after I get control of the pain. What a thrill this is to me. I am excited to know I have found something natural and healthy with no adverse side effects that I feel will eliminate my migraines forever! - S. Stover
