I figured you'd be irked by them...

According to....the following, for all you Westernized health addicts, btw, No carps involved with this element...hehe.

Should purée or juice from the arils be infused with exocarp phenolic extracts, mangosteen juice adopts the purple color and astringency of its exocarp ...Mangosteen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yes, XanGo Juice harnesses the power of the whole mangosteen fruit, delivering nutrients the way nature intended. You have Xanthones. You have antioxidants. ...

You're Thinking... "What Exactly is a Mangosteen, Anyway?"

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 a fresh supply). The scientific name is Garcinia mangostana and it is traditionally recognized for its enticing flavor and high value in folk medicine.

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.


OK, But is There Science Behind It?

Absolutely. Researchers have identified dozens of biologically active compounds called XANTHONES in the rind of the mangosteen fruit. There are many research papers online worth examining (if you're the skeptical type) that span decades of scrutiny. If you want to look for yourself, visit www.Pubmed.org and then type in "Xanthones" or "Mangosteen" in the search box.

Researchers have gone so far as to say: "Xanthones show considerable biological activity, and it is surprising that none of them so far have an established use in medicine." - Taylor and Frost, Phytochemical Dictionary, 1983

Stacks of existing mangosteen research have been validated with thousands of individual accounts in dozens of countries.

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*
* neutralize existing free radicals*
* fight minor muscle pain following exercise*
* 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.

The Acai Berry
A True Superfood?

Dr. Perricone has named the Acai berry as the #1 Superfood. The Acai fruit has been featured on Oprah, in the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. Amazingly, the little Acai berry - about the size of a blueberry - is being called the miracle berry.
On this site we are not going to make outrageous claims about how Acai is the cure for everything that ails you. What we will say is that Acai may be one of the healthiest foods on the planet.
But before you get too excited and try to run down to the local fruit store to buy the Acai superfruit - we have some bad news. Acai only grows in the Amazon Rainforest and is very perishable. So, unless you live in the Amazon - you will not find fresh Acai at your local store.
Here is the good news - Acai can be freeze dried and turned into a powder which has all the nutritional power of fresh Acai. Now the bad news - the majority of Acai powder on the market is not legitimate and has very low antioxidant effects.
Confused? So were we, so we started doing some more research. After months of hunting - we learned a great deal about the Acai Berry. Grab a cup of coffee, sit back and let's start from the top…
Wikipedia states:

Açaí Palm (IPA [asaˈi]) is a member of the genus Euterpe, which contains 7 species of palms native to tropical Central and South America, from Belize south to Brazil and Peru, growing mainly in floodplains and swamps. The genus is named after the muse Euterpe of Greek mythology. Euterpe are tall, slender, attractive palms growing to 15-30 meters tall, with pinnate leaves up to 3 meters long. Many of the palms that were once in the genus Euterpe have been reclassified into the genus Prestoea (Riffle, 2003). The species Euterpe oleracea is usually called Açaí Palm, after the Portuguese name for the beverages made from its fruit. The vernacular name is also sometimes spelled Assai Palm in English.
The fruit, a small, round, black-purple drupe about 1 inch (25 mm) in diameter, similar in appearance and size to a grape but with less pulp, is produced in branched panicles of 700 to 900 fruits. Two crops of fruit are produced per year. The fruit has a single large seed about 7–10 mm in diameter. The exocarp of the ripe fruits is a deep purple color, or green, depending on the kind of açaí and its maturity. The mesocarp is pulpy and thin, with a consistent thickness of 1 mm or less. It surrounds the voluminous and hard endocarp which contains a seed with a diminutive embryo and abundant endosperm.[citation needed] The seed makes up about 80% of the fruit (Schauss, 2006c).
