Description:

Mangosteen, known as the Queen of Fruits, is a tasty fruit native to Southeast Asia. Having similar size as tangerine, the ripe mangosteen has a smooth, dark purple rind holding snow-white fruits inside. Mangosteen rind was found to have strong antioxidant activity, due to the presence of high content of prenylated xanthone derivatives.

Remarkable antioxidant activity superior than Vitamins and abilities of anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, anti-malaria and phytoestrogen effect and antimicrobial activity against fungi or bacteria;
2. Mangostin is used to treat skin infections, wounds,and diarrhea. Alpha-mangostin, a xanthone, inhibited growth of human leukemia HL*0 cells, reduced the synthesis of prostaglandins, and prevented oxidative damage of LDL in vitro;
3. There is also preliminary evidence that alpha-and gamma-mangostins act as histamine and serotonin receptor blockers, and also inhibit HIV*1 protease. Garcinone E, another xanthone, exerts cytotoxic effects against human hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Extract from the pericarp of mangosteen has antiproliferative, antioxidative, and apoptotic effects against human breast cancer SKBR3 cells.
