Mangosteen Helped My Gout!

5/5/2007 -- Venie from Idaho

For years I have suffered from a severe pain called Gout, usually in my toes. I have avoided so many foods that are rich in purine such as shrimp, crab, beans, spinach, red meat, etc. which would trigger my Gout every time I ate them. I joined so many Natural or Herbal Companies in hopes that their products would help me with this issue. Their products helped me somewhat with my health but never with my Gout. I had not stopped searching until I was introduced to the mangosteen juice. After 2 months of drinking the juice I decided to try eating shrimp which is one of my favorite seafoods. To my amazement my Gout did not flare up. So then, I tried it again the next day just to make sure. I am excited to say that my Gout never came back and I am now enjoying any food I want to eat without being afraid of my Gout flaring up again. Life is good. Thanks to mangosteen juice and to the people responsible in introducing this miraculous fruit juice to America. Thank you!

Flying With Herbal Medicines

A travel tip that was passed on to me. For those of you traveling with Xango, bring your singles, in the rip-and-sip pouch!

by Molly Feltner, SmarterTravel.com Staff - May 15, 2008

The rules surrounding air travel with medicines can be confusing, and travel with herbal remedies is no exception. Here's a quick look at how to handle bringing natural medicines on your next flight.

According to the TSA website, you're permitted to bring "reasonable amounts" of "all prescription and over-the-counter medicines" including "non-prescription liquid or gel medicines" and "homeopathic" medicines in your checked and carry-on bags as long as they're not "suspicious." This allows travelers a lot of leeway, but also gives security officials equal freedom to reject items. It's a good idea to take some precautions.

Make sure any herbal remedies you bring are in clearly labeled, well-sealed containers, preferably in original bottles. Although the TSA doesn't require it, it may be helpful to bring a doctor's note explaining your remedies' uses. Liquid medications aren't subject to the TSA's three-ounce limits: however, you are required to declare amounts over three ounces to security officers and present them for inspection, so be prepared to do so.

Bringing herbal medicines into other countries is a trickier issue, since each nation has its own rules about what's allowed in. To find out if any types of medicines are restricted, go to the embassy website of whatever country you'll be visiting.

Personally, I wouldn't worry too much about traveling in either the U.S. or overseas with herbal medicine, as long you're bringing small amounts packaged in their original containers. I would, however, strongly advise you to leave at home anything homemade (or homemade-looking) and never bring products containing illegal drugs or endangered plant and animal parts (the latter of which are often used in Chinese medicines).

Frank Eagle's Xango Story

My Xango Story

I first heard about XanGo in January 2005 from a friend in Atlanta, Georgia He made all these hard to believable claims about what it had done for him. I checked out his website for maybe 20 minutes and forgot about it.

During the next six months, I was put on Narvasc for high blood pressure. I had been taking Acifex for Acid Reflux Disease for over three years and Zyrtec for allergies for nearly eight years. In June 2005 I decided to research this "miracle" XanGo.

I taught biology in high school for over 15 years and have some knowledge of human anatomy and how different disorders affect the body. I have always read with interest articles about natural remedies. After nearly two months of serious study, I began taking XanGo on July 27, 2005.

My doctor's office was only a block away from the retirement community I was managing. His staff had been watching my BP to see if the Narvasc would help to control it. The previous four months of taking the drug had done little or nothing to lower my BP. Within just two weeks of beginning XanGo my BP began to drop from a high of 170/110.

My doctor began to question my habits and life style, but the only change I had made to my life had been starting to drink XanGo. By early September, I began to slowly remove the Narvasc from my routine. My BP was 135/80 (my HS numbers) within three months.

During this time I found myself not needing my allergy medication. Not needing the Zyrtec or any other allergy drug was a true blessing.

I found during the first three months of XanGo, not needing antacids to supplement the Acifex I was taking. I slowly fazed the Acifex from my system.

Since December of 2005, I have had consistently normal BP, I have had no need for allergy medications and have been able to eat foods that for over three years I could not handle.

I could go on about an increase in energy, as well as being able to sleep much better than I've slept in years.

I'm sure many of you will find my claims to be as far-out as I did when I heard those claims of my friend three years ago.

All I am trying to do is encourage anyone who is skeptical to just try it for themselves for at least 90 days and see what it might do for you. If they don't see significant changes in their health, they will be the exception and not the rule.

Thanks for allowing me to share part of my XanGo story.
