Here
is a real question posed to
Dr.
J Frederic Templeman
Q. What do the xanthones in the pericarp of the
mangosteen fruit do?
A There
are over 40 known xanthones in the pericarp of the
mangosteen fruit. There are also polysaccharides and
other active chemicals that give the mangosteen
fruit its medicinal properties. The following is a
short list outlining some of these benefits:
-
Antiinflammatory – is known to inhibit
swelling, tenderness, edema and pain
-
Antioxidant – known to stop the harmful
effects of free radicals in the body
-
Cholesterol – inhibits the oxidation of LDL
(the bad) cholesterol before it has a chance to
damage the lining of an artery an cause a plaque
to build up. In other words, reduces the risk of
atherosclerosis.
-
Immune
system: - posses potent anti-bacterial,
anti-viral and anti-fungal properties
-
Antitumor properties – the xanthones from
mangosteen inhibited growth of different types of
liver cell cancer and showed promise with
pancreatic cancer
-
Digestive system – demonstrated
anti-ulcer activity and helped the body overcome
diarrhea and dysentery
-
Antiallergic – demonstrated to reduce the
effects of allergic reactions of the body from
common allergins to anaphylaxis
-
Central nervous system – the mangosteen
is shown to produce a therapeutic effect in both
the treatment and prevention of Parkinson’s and
Alzheimer’s disease
-
Skin – demonstrated to reduce the effects
of dermatitis, eczema and skin infections
Q.
I consider myself a healthy person. I try to balance
my diet and I take a multi-vitamin each morning. Am I
getting xanthones from my food?
A. No. The
xanthone family of phytonutrients are found primarily
in two families in nature ... Guttiferae (the family
of the mangosteen) and Gentianaceae. The pericarp of
the mangosteen is a premier source where xanthones are
found in concentrated amounts. Many scientific studies
name the mangosteen pericarp as one of the main
sources of xanthones in nature. There are (so far)
over 40 identified xanthones in the pericarp of the
mangosteen fruit.

Mangosteen Research
The Mangosteen, if scientific research is any
indication, is perhaps the most important fruit on
earth.
The Mangosteen contains several classes of
phytonutrient antioxidants and is the only place in
nature to contain a broad spectrum of a new class of
phytonutrients called Xanthones. The potent effects on
human health of the Mangosteen have been observed for
centuries in Southeast Asia, and have been
scientifically documented. Here is a summary of the
benefits of the Mangosteen:
Mangosteen:
“I am convinced that Mangosteen will, without a doubt,
be the most successful food supplement ever.” – J.
Frederic Templeman, M.D.
Dr. Templeman is a practicing primary care physician,
board-certified in both the US and Canada who has
never before endorsed a food supplement. But after
testing a Mangosteen derived Juice on his patients,
Dr. Templeman went on to publish MANGOSTEEN, THE X
FACTOR. You may order his booklet from his website:
www.mangosteenmd.com. His booklet summarized both the
observations of the native healers and peoples of
Southeast Asia, and the scientific research that now
documents the potent effects of this amazing fruit.
As Dr. Templeman states in the beginning of his book,
“what is impressive about these studies is that all
the scientific studies on Mangosteen are independent.
The studies have no commercial bias.” In addition,
while potent effects are noted with profound
implications for human health, no safety or toxicity
issues have been noted.

Mangosteen – What is it?
The Mangosteen is
tangerine-sized and is deep purple in color on the
outside, with a bright white pulp in the inside.
Prized because of its excellent flavor, in Asia it is
called the “Queen of Fruits,” and, in the French
Caribbean, the Food of the Gods.” Used for centuries
throughout the lands in which it grows, recent
scientific studies have revealed an incredible scope
of potent human health benefits leading many to
believe that Mangosteen will be the most important
fruit on earth.
Mangosteen: The X Factor
(Disclaimer:

by your licensed medical professional.)
The following is a
summary of the X Factor by Dr. Templeman
Immune System
Protects against pathogens, sepsis, influenza,
pneumonia, tuberculosis, AIDS, and diverticulosis.
Anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal. Laboratory
demonstrated to interfere with HIV protease, which
keeps the virus immature and incapable of infections.
Thai study demonstrated effectiveness against
staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Polysaccharides in the
rind stimulate phagocytic immune cells (PMN’s and
monocytes). Effective against salmonella, typhus and
tuberculosis bacteria.
Asian healers have used Mangosteen for centuries for
syphilis, malaria, and amebic dysentery. In South
America, it is used for intestinal worm infestations.
Anti-Tumor Properties
Catechins in Mangosteen: Prevent formation of
carcinogenic compounds by blocking co-carcinogens.
Turn up body’s natural detoxification defenses.
Suppress cancer promotion or growth.
Gastro-Intestinal System
Dysentery, GI pathogens, diverticulosis, histamine and
serotonin blocking capacity. Reduces excess stomach
acid. Anti-allergic effect. Anti-stomach ulcer.
Respiratory System
Mangosteen study in September 2002 reported that it is
an anti-inflammatory and anti-allergenic agent.
Relevant for asthma. Xanthoses modulate IGE, antibody
class involved in allergic reactions. Mangosteen can
accomplish “what we now use several drugs to do. Ideal
product to use daily to protect our respiratory
system’s integrity”
The Central Nervous System
Dr. Nakahata’s research with glial cells (central
nervous systems cells) suggest that Mangosteen could
produce a therapeutic effect in both treatment and
prevention of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease.
Skin
Mangosteen used for centuries to treat eczema,
dermatitis, wounds, ringworm, acne, impetigo, and
growth disorders of dermis (psoriasis or seborrhea)
skin cancer and sun damage.
Folk Medicine Remedies (India, China, Malaysia,
Philippines, etc.)
Antimicrobial/anti-inflammatory powers. Treating
eczematous and hyperkeratotic skin conditions. In
Caribbean, tonic for fatigue and malaise. Controlling
fever.
Systemic Effects
Helps with fatigue, low energy. Used on persons with
chronic fatigue and illness. From Dr. James Duke,
perhaps America’s foremost ethnobotanist. Retired in
1995. He worked for the USDA and University of
Maryland. Prolific writer and created a phytochemical
and ethnobotanical database. Mangosteen is listed with
138 separate benefits. The following are the major
benefits:
• Anti-fatigue
• Anti-tumor and cancer prevention

• Anti-pyretic – fever lowering
• Anti-Parkinson
• Anti-diarrhea
