Ultra Mangosteen–Ultra Mangosteen is a dietary supplement that
offers several classes of powerful phytonutrient antioxidants
that have been derived from the mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana
L), an exotic fruit that comes from Southeast Asia. The
mangosteen has been nicknamed the “Queen of Fruits” and in some
parts of the world the “Food of the Gods” for its various health
benefits and for its delightful taste. For thousands of years,
Asian countries have been using the mangosteen in Chinese,
Ayurvedic and folk medicine to support optimal
health.†
Xanthones
The secret to the mangosteen’s health
promoting abilities is the xanthones contained in the fruit.
Xanthones are biologically active plant phenols that that are
structurally similar to flavonoids that have been found to
possess multiple health benefits.† When it comes to xanthones,
there is no other fruit that possesses a more potent
concentration of xanthones than the mangosteen.
One of
the key benefits of xanthones is their antioxidant properties.†
Xanthones possess an extra electron, and help to seek out and
quench free radicals in the body. Free radicals
are atoms that
have an odd number of electrons. Free radicals wreak havoc on
the body’s cells as they wander through the body searching for
another electron.
ConcenTrace®
The difference
between Ultra Mangosteen and other mangosteen products found on
the market is that Ultra Mangosteen contains a potent, full
spectrum complex of over 72 ionic trace minerals and elements
from ConcenTrace®. This complex of bioavailable minerals
supercharges our formula to help in the absorption and
assimilation of all nutrients so you can attain the greatest
health benefit possible.†
Highest ORAC* Value—30,000!
The
reason Ultra Mangosteen is different from other mangosteen
products is because of its unmatched ORAC (Oxygen Radical
Absorbance Capacity) score. The ORAC test is a laboratory test
tube analysis that measures the total in vitro antioxidant power
of foods. The higher the ORAC score, the greater the potential
benefits because of the antioxidants that help defend against
free radical damage to the cells. Recent research highlights the
benefits of eating plenty of high-ORAC foods, citing that they
may help support healthy aging in both body and brain.† By using
a proprietary extraction process, Ultra Mangosteen contains the
highest concentration of free radical-fighting xanthones †,
which gives it the highest potency of antioxidants when compared
to similar mangosteen products.
The Mangosteen
The
Mangosteen is a tropical fruit that grows on trees, and is
cultivated in both the northern and southern hemispheres. It is
composed of pericarp (rind), pulp (fruit), and seeds. The pulp
is composed of four to eight white segments of juicy, soft flesh
that is of the consistency of a ripe plum. The pericarp consists
of a dark purple, smooth rind about 6-10 mm thick which encloses
the pulp.
Ultra Mangosteen contains added fruit juice
extracts and concentrates that possess important nutrients for
better health.

potent antioxidant 20 times more potent than vitamin C and 50
times more concentrated than vitamin E†; also rich in
polyphenols.
