If you check today's bulletin for natural remedies and supplements for both health and beauty, you can easily find a vast array of fruits and vegetables.

The health benefits of Mangosteen according to researchers are too vast ranging from weight loss to countering premature aging, boosting immune system, treating cancer, cellular inflammation and infections, and a whole lot more.

Aside from Southeast Asian countries like Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, India and Indonesia, mangosteens are also found in Australia, Central and South America and popularly known in the medical realm as garcinia mangostana. This "super fruit" usually has a thick purple-hued rind but has meat that is sweet and creamy in texture and taste. Its health benefits are usually extracted from the whole tree and fruit, from leaves, bark or stems and trunk, rind, meat of fruit, and roots. Today's medical developers continually research and study extracts from these fruit parts to develop as both health and dietary treatment systems.

Asia is known for Ayurvedic healing systems and mangosteen is one of its main components in healing patterns. From gastric difficulties like dysentery and diarrhea, it has also been continually used as treatment for wounds and other infectious diseases. The secret behind this is xanthones, a powerful phytonutrient that can shield and treat the bodily functions particularly in digestion, respiratory and immune systems. Forty kinds of xanthones are also noted to be present on its pericarp alone which can be a good indication of a powerful metabolic feature.

This fruit contains powerful antioxidants called polyphenols. Medically, polyphenols are deemed ten times more powerful than vitamin C and a hundred times much stronger than carotenoids and Vitamin E. This type of antioxidant is one powerful aspect in naturally fighting free radicals off the body thereby preventing cancer, heart diseases, diabetes, hypertension and various threats to the immune system.

Containing efficient anti-allergy and anti-inflammatory ingredient, this fruit has also been developed to treat lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and polymyalgia rheumatica as well as chronic inflammation like asthma, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis. In ancient times, its rind where boiled and drank as tea to help alleviate pain and relieve cellular inflammation. Notably certain skin diseases like eczema and psoriasis can also be treated with this.

When it comes to its anti-bacterial capabilities, mangosteen contain a chemical ingredient called alpha-mangostin. This ingredient is usually extracted from its stem's bark. This helps to counter antibiotic resistant diseases like staph and VRE.

One prominent skin problem is acne and alpha-mangostin is one anti-bacterial solution renowned to be efficient in eradicating this horrendous looking skin cystic disease. Additionally, recent studies also show that its active ingredients xanthones and alpha-mangostin are good sleep aid and in developing anti-cancer treatment.

Above all else, this "superfruit" is continually being hailed the best addition in the weight loss and anti-aging markets. Laden with antioxidants and phytonutrients, it helps fire up a person's metabolism especially when paired with active physical workout. Weight loss supplements coming in as liquid drinks and diet pills often have mangosteen ingredients. Anti-aging pills, creams and lotions are also growing in popularity in improving one's looks. In all these, the health benefits of Mangosteen can never be denied.
