Mangosteen Helped My Daughter's ADD

My daughter is now 20 years old and had been on medication for ADD since she was diagnosed at 7. It helped her tremendously, but we were always concerned. She had trouble gaining weight, she was noticibly irritated when she didn't take it as an adolescent and she decided to stop at 15 and went into a severe depression. Luckily, we worked things out and she began again on meds. Last Jan(07) she came and said she wanted to stop. She is in college with a rigorous schedule and she is a nutrition major. We discussed what to keep in mind when looking at the effects of not being on meds and she began taking mangosteen juice regularly in the am and pm. She is doing great and able to focus and work for long hours and is quite content and happy (most important!). During the time she was on meds we had occassional fainting that ended up being related to mitral valve prolapse. Nothing severe, but we do check her heart regularly; especially now that there have been warnings issued in regard to the medications used for ADD.
I also have an older daughter that had trouble with acne for many years, had been on accutane twice (we couldn't find any other resolution) and finally tried mangosteen juice and her skin has become beautiful again. We are true believers!! Try it, it can't hurt!

New Glimpse Story

Hi All..


Well Judy and I went to the Seattle Xango Corporate and training meeting with great excitement and anticipation to experience the sampling of Glimpse. Of course the meeting was huge with an all star lineup of guests. There was a buzz in the air that was exhilarating and contagious.

Here is my experience and testimony:

They pass out a sample of Glimpse at the end of the corporate meeting and right before lunch. I had two (2) small mosquito type size sores on my arm that itch ed terribly. The sores had been on my arm for about three (3) days. I also had a large reddish area about the size of a silver dollar.I gently rubbed Glimpse into the area and felt an immediate soothing calm to that region of my arm. Within a couple of minutes the itch went away. This was about 12:30 pm. That alone blew me away. I said to myself ..'could it be'...I went about the day very busily. Around 3 pm I notice my arm and the reddish area had completely disappeared. I was blown away for the second time. The bite type sores were disappearing. Around 8pm my friend and fellow distributor Jim Gilliland called. I started to share with him what was going on. We got excited.The long and short of the story is that I am writing this at 6: 45 am Sunday morning. I couldn't sleep. The bite marks and redness have completely disappeared.

My mind right now is racing faster than a speeding bullet with all the possibilities. Judy and I are mapping out today on how to build a huge Glimpse business. Xango has done it again. Wow!



More to follow....GoXango!!!

Mangosteen Helped My Gout!

5/5/2007 -- Venie from Idaho

For years I have suffered from a severe pain called Gout, usually in my toes. I have avoided so many foods that are rich in purine such as shrimp, crab, beans, spinach, red meat, etc. which would trigger my Gout every time I ate them. I joined so many Natural or Herbal Companies in hopes that their products would help me with this issue. Their products helped me somewhat with my health but never with my Gout. I had not stopped searching until I was introduced to the mangosteen juice. After 2 months of drinking the juice I decided to try eating shrimp which is one of my favorite seafoods. To my amazement my Gout did not flare up. So then, I tried it again the next day just to make sure. I am excited to say that my Gout never came back and I am now enjoying any food I want to eat without being afraid of my Gout flaring up again. Life is good. Thanks to mangosteen juice and to the people responsible in introducing this miraculous fruit juice to America. Thank you!

Mangosteen and Asthma - Bo's Story

(Bo's picture has been edited to protect his privacy)

Challenged by Asthma Since Birth
a mother's story
July 10, 2008

My son, Bo was born 8lbs.11oz and 3 weeks early. He was air lifted 2 times before he was even 24 hours old. I had not even held my son. After some devastating news and being advised of an experimental procedure that may not work, I sat and watched my baby struggle. I swore from that moment, I would do anything it took and try everything I could, to let him be in our lives. I wasn't willing to give up! Thank GOD it worked. There were a lot of prayers from many beliefs.

After 13 days he came home. At 6 months he got RSV. That wasn't fun and this was ‘just the beginning’ of our bumpy road. After several special-ists and many doctors, Bo was finally diagnosed as a Severe Asthmatic at the age of two. I have tried herbs, oils, body messages, mustard baths and pressure points. I wasn't going to give up. All he keeps asking for is to be like every other little boy. My response is, I would rather have you with a little asthma than not have you at all. He is a very sweet and still is100%boy (so he has his moments).

He is 9 years old now. Our normal year consists of a minimum of 4 emergency room visits and a good dozen doctor visits, due to his asthma. About 4 years ago the doctors discovered that his condition was seasonal and he is now diagnosed as an ‘Extrovert Asthmatic’. This means allergies and emotions could set off his asthma.

I have missed many days of work, went in early, stayed late, worked from home, what-ever I could do to just get by and take care of him. I have a family who will help, but I am a proud mom and sometimes I won't let them.

One day approximately a year and a half ago, my manager came to me with this web-site. He knew I was always interested in new alternatives that might help my son. I looked it over and remembered reading a story about a little girl from Oregon. I was at work and I cried because it so reminded me of what I was going thru. I asked him were he heard about this stuff and what I needed to do to try some. A friend of his was selling it and he got me a bottle for free to try.

After a short time on the juice, the color in my son’s face improved. He was running from one end of the house to the next without losing breath. I thought it was wonderful!

After about 8 months, I ran into a financial bind and his asthma was doing so well I thought he might have outgrown it and his improvement wasn’t due to the Original Mangosteen Juice at all…. BIG mistake! He went without it for about 4 days and his peak flows started going down. It took about a week to get him back up to normal. I sent a friend to the West Val-ley, approx 70miles, to pick up this ‘Original Mangosteen Juice.’ I swore to never do that again.

Still to this day my son takes his juice in the morning and again in the evening with his normal meds. Before he started on the ‘juice,’ he was on the maximum dosage of: Advair 500/50, Singulair, Flonase and Clariton (this is just for maintaining His dosages are increased when he is having difficulty.) Since he’s been using the ‘juice,” his doctor has reduced the Advair by half. The specialist is considering reducing his meds another level in 6 months as long as he remains stable without any episodes.

This is the first summer of his life without any problems. One might say it is because he is getting older. But after the short time he was without the Original Mangosteen Juice, I pledged to make sure that my son will never be without it. He is healthier than he has ever been. Nothing is more rewarding then to see your child run and play with all the other little boys and not have to stop and look at you because he needs help.

Granted, we still have little episodes from time to time, but they last days now. Before the ‘Juice,’ they often lasted up to weeks. The value of the “Original Mangosteen Juice” is measured in my eyes when I see him smile and play!

Old Miniature Dachshund With a Disintegrated Back Disc...

When asked to write about the effects of aging and the danger of some of the most important folks in our lives, (our little dogs), I almost immediately got tears in my eyes.

My best little four legged friend is "Ms. Scarlet," our long haired, miniature dachshund. We've had her since she was a tiny little puppy. She loves to sit on my lap.

As many of you may know, this breed of dog is very prone to back issues because their little legs are just too short to support their long bodies. We, our family, have always watched that Ms. Scarlet didn’t jump off of furniture, or climb stairs, because of the inclination to have a back injury.

Ms. Scarlet is now 13 years old and last year, just overnight, Scarlet woke up one morning, and she couldn’t stand or walk, and if she tried, the pain would cause her to urinate on the spot. She couldn't even move her real legs, and curled them up under her. I immediately made her an appointment with her Vet and was told that she had a disintegrated disc, and that surgery would be the ONLY solution, and that at her age it would be a real risk.

Ed and I were faced with a decision that most pet owners are faced with at one time or another. It was at this point that Ed said, "Before we make any difficult decisions, let’s see if Xango will work for her."

It was at that point that I started giving Scarlet a dropper of Xango twice a day. It didn’t take but a month, and Scarlet was running around the house with the rest of the dogs and she still is. Our little girl, "Ms. Scarlet." is now almost blind and can’t hear very well, but she's as frisky as a puppy. She hops around in and out of the house, and scampers to the back door to run and play outside with our 2 other miniature dachshund puppies (1 year old). She is much slower than the puppies, but she is 13 years old, and still alive and well, and she's actually still hopping around. God has given us more years with Ms. Scarlett, that we didn't think we would have, and we are so grateful to God for that.

I know that God played a big part in this, because we pray for all our pets, along with all of our family and friends, but I also KNOW in my heart, that if we had not given Ms. Scarlet her Xango every day, she would not be here with us today. By the way, she sends her love and said to tell you that she is still taking her Xango faithfully.

8/20/2007 -- Allergies - Trevor & Christa from Nebraska

Our two sons, ages 6 & 7, have had allergies ever since we have moved from the Carolinas to the Nebraska. They used to take a half a tablet of Claritin every day in the morning to help with their symptoms. Since they have been drinking one ounce of the “Mangosteen Juice” they haven’t had to take any Claritin for allergies. Also my wife's migraines have diminished since she has been drinking the Mangosteen Juice. As for myself, I am self employed with a crazy work schedule so my hours are always all over the board. I could never get a good nights rest because I would wake up several times a night. No more, I sleep through the night now thanks to this great Mangosteen Juice. I also tore the Cartilage in my left knee playing basketball 5 months ago. I was in some serious pain but I never had any inflation. When I went to see the Doctor the next day he couldn't believe there wasn't any swelling. I took a train ride to Chicago the day after my injury with my Mangosteen Juice bottle in hand. I was walking on my knee with in 24 hours and now I am back to playing basketball. Thank GOD for the Queen of Fruits, "the Mangosteen".

PubMed Results For Xanthones As They Relate To Breast Cancer

Thanks to Karen Veverka for forwarding the following information:

Hi Team,

Below is the latest post (June 18, 2008)from PubMed regarding the xanthones found in the PERICARP of the Mangosteen fruit (which is the MAIN INGREDIENT in our juice) as it relates to breast cancer.

Remember, others may use the "juice" of the "fruit" and list it as a last ingredient but WE USE THE WHOLE FRUIT PUREE (which means the PERICARP) as our FIRST ingredient.

VERY PROMISING!

Xanthones from the Botanical Dietary Supplement Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) with Aromatase Inhibitory Activity.

Balunas MJ, Su B, Brueggemeier RW, Kinghorn AD.

kinghorn.4@osu.edu.

Twelve xanthone constituents of the botanical dietary supplement mangosteen (the pericarp of Garcinia mangostana) were screened using a noncellular, enzyme-based microsomal aromatase inhibition assay. Of these compounds, garcinone D ( 3), garcinone E ( 5), alpha-mangostin ( 8), and gamma-mangostin ( 9) exhibited dose-dependent inhibitory activity. In a follow-up cell-based assay using SK-BR-3 breast cancer cells that express high levels of aromatase, the most potent of these four xanthones was gamma-mangostin ( 9). Because xanthones may be consumed in substantial amounts from commercially available mangosteen products, the consequences of frequent intake of mangosteen botanical dietary supplements require further investigation to determine their possible role in breast cancer chemoprevention.

Mangosteen Desk Reference

This is a great book by Kenneth Finsand, which will give you details about how mangosteen effects all of the body systems. It is great to have on-hand, to answer questions about specific health problems, and it is a must-have to insure proper intake of mangosteen juice per day.

It was recommended to me by my upline, and has come in quite handy.

Enjoy!

Osteoperosis Drug Fosamax Is Bad For Your Heart

Article courtesy of Mercola.com

Women who have used Fosamax are nearly twice as likely to develop atrial fibrillation (quivering of your heart’s upper chambers), which is the most common kind of chronically irregular heartbeat.

Fosamax is the most widely used drug treatment for the bone-thinning disease osteoporosis. The FDA approved the first generic version (called alendronate) in February.

The drug was associated with an 86 percent higher risk of atrial fibrillation compared with never having used the drug. Atrial fibrillation can cause palpitations, fainting, fatigue, or congestive heart failure. They can also lead to embolic strokes.

More Testimonials: Severe Migraine Headaches

Severe Migraine Headaches

26 yrs ago I launched a medical & surgical supply business in one of my husband's five pharmacies. Ironically, that began migraine headaches that got worse as I got older. They were consistently lasting 3 days out of every 10-12. I tried every new drug that could be prescribed, Xert, Immitrex. Fiorinal with codeine just to name a few. In Nov of 2002, I began taking this magical botanical juice that contains the entire husk pureed of Mangosteen. And over a period of about 3 months, I noticed that my headaches were becoming less frequent and less intense. Valentines Day was my 1 yr anniversary with no drugs and no migraines after 25 yrs of suffering. Just think, if this Mangosteen botanical can help only 50% of people who are in pain, what a difference this can make in people's quality of life. In addition, my physician had me tested for risk of stroke and/or heart attack due to my father dying at the age of 63 with a heart attack and my C-REATIVE PROTEIN score (new biomarker) was a 7.1. The highest my physician said she had anyone of her patients ever score (obviously not a good thing!). In February, when I returned for my yearly check-up, not only were my migraines gone, but also my lab results with my C-Reactive Protein score was DOWN TO a 0.3! Now that's undisputable, scientific proof that the Xanthones in Mangosteen did what most other course of treatment would not accomplish. - Sandi Cohen, P.S. AZ

I used to get three to four severe migraines a month. I've been getting these since I was around 10 years old. These were the full-blown aura and vomit inducing kind. Some would last for days. I've been to many doctors and nobody has a definite answer to it. The only answer that all of them had has been to prescribe some medication and that was that. I have grown up watching my mother suffer from these same migraines. She is frequently in the hospital emergency room or self-inducing Imitrex shots. I decided a long time ago that I would not take medications. They are not the solution. 2 months ago I was told about a product called Mangosteen Juice. Ever since then, neither I, or my mother have had a single episode. Brett T.

I was introduced to Mangosteen Juice by a lifelong friend who called me very excited about the positive results she was experiencing with her leg problem. I knew she had tried many different methods of treatment and nothing seemed to improve her leg. I was given a sample of Mangosteen Juice and was pleasantly surprised by the texture and flavor. It was delicious to the taste. A few days later, which happened to be Sunday, I awakened with a full-blown migraine. I have suffered with migraines most of my life and since I have such extreme adverse reactions to all medications this has been a challenge for me. I nursed the migraine all day long into the early morning hours on Monday.

I had been told Mangosteen Juice would help migraines and I thought this could be a good test for me. So I went back to Mangosteen Juice and asked for a sample bottle to take home. Upon arriving home I immediately took 1 to 2 ounces of the juice and within 15 minutes the pain was completely gone. Also, to my surprise the nausea feeling, which usually lingers for a day or so, was gone as well. As the day progressed I had a high level of energy, which I never have had before with a migraine. I am usually wiped out for a few days even after I get control of the pain. What a thrill this is to me. I am excited to know I have found something natural and healthy with no adverse side effects that I feel will eliminate my migraines forever! - S. Stover

----------------------------------------------------

Greetings,

My name is Jo Ann Dorris, but call me Jody. I’m 60 years old and 10 years ago I was told I had rheumatoid arthritis. It has been a struggle, as I have always worked hard and been athletic. This illness has taught me humility. My knees swell up as big as basketballs and have to be drained of fluid. My wrists and hands have been so bad that I could not lift a cup of coffee, turn a doorknob, or squeeze shampoo out of a bottle. Almost impossible to lift my hands over my head to wash my hair or put on my clothes. I’ve had to have surgery on my wrists, also under my arms, because I got lymphoma from too much prednisone and cortisone shots and pills.

As you guessed I have too many problems to tell about. 24 hours of pain $2,700.00 a month in medication, that can actually kill me by damaging my liver, kidneys etc. To top it off I have 6 bulging discs in my back, and a narrowing of my spinal column that is pinching my syatic nerves.

Now you know some of my history. My brother called me late one night and wanted me to try (mangosteen juice) I have tried so many other things and nothing worked because rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune illness. He finally talked me into trying it, which wasn’t easy. My husband and my son made fun of me because I agreed to do so. If all the medications haven’t helped me, how could this juice help? My brother made it clear to me that the juice will not cure rheumatoid arthritis or my back problems, but that it would help my immune system and help me manage my pain.

I have been taking 3 oz. of juice a day now for 6 weeks. It’s hard to describe what is going on in my body, I’m not sure how the juice works, but it is. We were spending $2,700.00 a month on medicine. Arava pills, humara shots, prednisone,and cortisone shots, pain medicine, muscle relaxants, medicine for nervous leg and sleeping pills. The medicine and all of their side effects were as bad as the illness. I am now taking a pain pill once every few days, but none of the Arava, humara, prednisone or cortisone. I’m taking about 95% less medicine than I was. My pain is 75% less or more, my skin is soft again. I no longer have dark circles under my eyes. My hair is growing back. My face looks younger because my skin is no longer dry and drawn. I was giving myself shots of humara in my stomach every 2 weeks. In doing so my stomach was getting soft and spongy. That is going away. All the swelling in my joints are down, which is why I’m having so much less pain. I still get some pain. My rheumatoid arthritis is still there, but I no longer need muscle relaxants or sleeping pills because the pain is down and I can sleep without help. Other things are improving too, but enough.

I know all this seems impossible but as a christian all that I have told you is true. I’m now singing in the choir at church, which I just didn’t feel well enough to do before. I’m enjoying being around people again. My body feels so much better, that I’m happier and not nervous all the time. I will continue to take the juice and encourage others to try it. Not all will have the same results, but what do you have to lose? I’m sure that I’ll even see more good results the longer I take (mangosteen juice).

Sincerely yours,

Jody Dorris

Gene Erickson and The Taste of Life

A while back, I posted a testimonial about a man named Gene Erickson who got great results using mangosteen. Now there is a video with Gene telling his own story, so I thought I would re-post the article with the updated video.

Here it is:

Mangosteen: The Taste of Life



Here is a testimony about a man who got great results from using mangosteen. Keep in mind that I am not a doctor, and I DO NOT claim that these results can be achieved by anyone, or that anyone should disregard the advice of a doctor to treat symptoms of any illness. If drinking mangosteen juice makes you feel better, by all means, continue drinking it.

A wife's 'Mangosteen Juice' Story.

About six months ago my husband became ill, his whole body and joints were racked with pain. Some mornings his hands were so swollen that they were useless until he massaged them for hours. He had no energy or appetite and he was drastically losing weight. The doctors were doing blood tests, lung x-rays and prostate exams. They ruled out cancer, but they could not find what was wrong. They said that it was possibly rheumatoid arthritis. They prescribed an anti inflammatory drug called NAPROXEN.

That relieved a lot of the swelling and pain.

After a several months the situation was getting worse instead of better. The medication was affecting his stomach so he was prescribed an over the counter drug called Zantax. He, also started taking some well known dry vitamins as well as a liquid vitamin.

The doctors decided to do a test that would require that he be off of all drugs (except for over the counter pain relievers) for seven days. My husband was in sheer agony!

My friend had spoken about 'Mangosteen Juice' several times previous. We were skeptical, but we decided that it was worth a try. So she provided us with a bottle and he immediately began taking 2 ounces in the morning and two ounces at night.

About a week later he had his color back! He had a lot more energy, some of his appetite and he was able to cut back to one Naproxen a day!

He was just about out of the 'Mangosteen Juice' but, he still had the dry vitamins as well as the liquid vitamins. So we didn't get another bottle.

It wasn't very many days after he finished the 'Mangosteen Juice' before the pain and swelling were back. He was lacking energy and he had to start taking the full dose of Naproxen and Zantec AGAIN!

Needless to say we hurried to get more 'Mangosteen Juice'. At this writing in the last month (December 2004) my husband has only had to take a total of 3 Naproxen pills - IN THE WHOLE MONTH!

I am also taking 'Mangosteen Juice' and my energy has increased beyond belief. I now sing 'Mangosteen Juice' to everyone I know and meet!!!!!!!

CHRIS: BEATING STAGE 4 BRAIN CANCER

After suffering from headaches for months, I had a seizure in late September of 2006. When I awoke, I learned that I had been out for 1 1/2 days! In that time I was air flown to UCSF for emergency surgery to remove 2 tumors, a golf ball sized and another smaller one, from the left side of my brain. Unfortunately, a 3rd tumor could not be removed, as that would have left me unable to talk and possibly paralyze my entire left side. This tumor was of a kind known as a Glioblastoma multiforme tumor. I researched it online. Here is an excerpt from a Wikipedia definition:

Glioblastoma multiforme

(GBM), also known as grade 4 astrocytoma, is the most common

and aggressive type of primary brain tumor, accounting for 52% of all primary brain tumor cases and 20% of all intracranial tumors. Despite being the most prevalent form of primary brain tumor, GBM's occur at only 2-3 cases per 100,000 people in Europe and North America. Treatment can involve chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery; all of which are acknowledged as palliative measures, meaning that they do not provide a cure. The five year survival rate of the disease has remained unchanged over the past 30 years, and stands at less than three percent. Even with complete surgical resection of the tumor, combined with the best available treatment, the survival rate for GBM remains very low.

I was told that I had 6 months to live. Within 6 weeks, I was on chemo and radiation therapies with no effect. In fact, my first MRI results from this showed that the tumor had actually DOUBLED in size!

I put out an email to my local community asking if anyone knew of anything that may help me. Richard is a friend that had just been introduced to Mangosteen Juice himself and learned that it was effective in a number of areas, including the breaking down of tumors. He said he didn't know if it would work for me, but perhaps I would be open to trying it. I laughed. "Rich, my doctors gave me six months to live! You bet I will try it!"

I went on the '21 day challenge', drinking 1 bottle a day for 21 days, along with plenty of filtered water. After 11 days of drinking the juice, I had my second MRI. I couldn't believe it! My tumor had SHRUNK and all cancer activity in my brain STOPPED! I was screaming with joy and called all my friends and relatives! My parents were in tears!

Earlier, when it was first suggested that I do chemo to combat the tumor, I was told that one of the side effects was death! To me, that was not an option and I decided to stop all chemo and radiation therapies.

I continued drinking the mangosteen juice, cutting back to 1/2 bottle a day for the next month. My next MRI came in showing the tumor continuing to shrink. I was so excited! I am getting my life back! This tumor does not have a chance!

During my 1Oth week of drinking the juice, I went in to get my fourth MRI. The radiologist was too busy to meet with me. Fortunately, I was with a friend that had experience reading MRI's so we rushed on home to look at it on my laptop computer. We were puzzled with what we saw, or rather DIDN’T see. Calling the radiologist, I asked why I didn’t see anything on this MRI. He pulled it up on his screen, looked at it and laughed. "That is because IT’S NOT THERE! You NO LONGER HAVE A TUMOR,

my friend!" My oncologist was stunned as well! I could not believe it! MY TUMOR WAS GONE! I spent the rest of the day and into the evening calling all of my relatives and friends! Originally, my doctors told me that I should have been DEAD 2 months ago! I have my LIFE back!

I continue drinking the Mangosteen juice as a preventative. I also highly recommend maintaining an alkaline diet, and meditation to keep a positive outlook on your future. I don’t know if this miracle juice will do the same for anyone out there suffering from a tumor, but am I glad that Richard introduced it to me. If not, I probably would not be here today.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story. I am grateful for every day of my life!

Sincerely,

Chris

Jon's Amazing Results!

Here is a link to a great testimonial about how mangosteen juice may have helped a young man named Jon fight off a rare blood disease:

www.mangosteeninfocenter.com

Again, I do not claim that mangosteen juice will work for you, but if you are having health issues, you may want to give it a try. www.myxango.com/mangosteennation.

Fibromyalgia Testimonial

Disclaimer: We do not claim that the Mangosteen Juice cures fibromyalgia, or other diseases, we just want to share the personal experiences of people who have had success with it. Actual results will vary.

To anyone with Fibromyalgia,

I am a 62 year old woman who was finally diagnosed with Fibro. in my mid 50's.

I have been on Celebrex, Lexpro (for depression), high blood pressure medication, acid reflux med and Tarazadone for sleeping. I took a total of 9 pills a day. Plus the side effects were not good.. I had also tried Bextra.

Nothing was working to give me a good quality of life. I started taking mangosteen juice (xango) about 3 years ago. What did I have to lose? I felt better right away, I felt my stress disappear and my pain became very minimal: I had my life back.

I weaned myself off my 3 celebrex a day and eventually all my meds.

I take 1 oz 3 times a day with food to keep my pain under control.

If I put my back out I drink 1/2 glass once or twice a day and go to bed to rest it and I'm fine and back to normal the next day. Basically if I have extra pain I drink more, but 1 oz 3 times a day keeps me going strong.

Other perks I have found is that I don't get colds or flu and I use it topically for cuts or bites.

I hope this helps someone, I know it sure helped me..

Virginia Miller's Testimony Thyroid Cancer & Shingles

September 27,2007

Mark I feel so very special and extremely blessed !! In late September 2005, I was suffering from Trangeminal Nueralgia, a Small Pox virus that stays dormant in the spinal column after one has had Shingles or a Herpes Virus. I had shingles on my face, which nearly covered my face on the right side, barely missing my right eye and down past my mouth. When these breakouts occur the pain is so excruciating and sharp, and really gets worse as you get older. I was under pain management control for the pain for a long time and nothing seemed to work. I had been put on Neuronton at a cost of $300.00/Mo. and at first I thought the pain was better but I gained 30 pounds of fluid in approximately 2-3 Mos. . I could hardly climb up my stairway at home and the fluid was very evident on my legs and around my heart. I determined I would not kill myself with the drug and would rather surrender the drug and stand the pain, than take a chance of further side effects from any drugs.

It was at this time of one of these outbreaks that I and horrendous pain that I finally paid attention to an ad I had heard several times on the radio station , KRKS from Denver ,Co. The testimonies of relief from illnesses and the short stories of people who were pleased with the results from working their businesses from home, finally caught my attention, and I picked up my cell phone and called the 800 number, with a promise that someone would be in touch with me in 3 days.

I'd like to stop right here and thank Mark Hunkele for calling me within the 3 days and telling me about this wonderful new product , Xango, made from the Little Mangosteen fruit, grown in so. east Asia.. He articulated very well, about the Phytonutrients, the Xanthones, and this small fruit and what they had discovered that it would do, and how I could possibly be helped by it. I wanted it right away and he sent me some literature and a cd and got me on the Bob Schmidt conference call on that Mon .PM.. I called him and ordered it right away and it was at my door in three days. I started taking it at 1 oz. 3 times a day and within 48 hrs, I was free from the neuralgia pain and have not had that pain like that since. I increased my dosage for other ailments and was really so pleased with the results that I started telling everyone I knew about and what it was doing for me.

I could tell you many stories about helping others but I know I'm the miracle one here from the use of Xango and this wonderful little fruit (Mangosteen) GODS GIFT TO ALL OF US, from South east Asia. I was doing very well, felt great , had lots of energy and enjoying being a "messenger of hope" to many.

Then Jan. 4th,2007 I started feeling weak and very ill. I thought I had caught a virus and would be OK in a few days. Then I started losing my voice and became very hoarse. I discovered a hardening across the lower part of my neck and felt it was probably swollen glands from the virus. I didn't get better and felt very weak so went to see my Dr. on Jan. 18th.2007. He visited with me for a short time, felt of my throat and said "Virginia, this is no good, no good at all. We must rule out the big "C" and sent me for an Ultra- sound , followed by a trip to a Surgeon , who examined me with a Scope and sent me to get a Biopsy of the Thyroid. this took 40 Min. instead of the usual 10 min. because they were having a hard time differentiating what was there.

They sent me then to another specialist an Endocrinologist, and after they had conferred, they said that there was no cancer and that I had thyroiditis and it would take 3- 6 mos. to get over it. By this time my voice was very hoarse and broken and almost a whisper. By this time it was the 2nd week of Feb. After my visit with her she called me one week later and said, " we're very concerned about your situation and "could I send for the slides from the first pathologist and have them sent to my pathologist, that I have utmost confidence in", and I said , "of course". After he had seen the slides she called me back and said that it was definitely cancer and that I had to have surgery right away.

Being on a blood thinner I had to wait for 5 days before they could do surgery. On Feb. 26th I had the surgery and never knew what kind of cancer I had until the surgery was over and they had seen it under frozen sectioned pathology exams.. Dr. Kim, who has done many Thyroid surgeries, sat on my bed the next Morning and told me," it was the worst he had seen in the US!" He diagnosed it as Anaplastic Carcinoma Thyroid Cancer. the Medical description is, The least common but most aggressive type of thyroid Cancer. Anaplastic is another word for undifferentiated; that is, the highly malignant cells do not look like Thyroid cells. They were so bad that they sent the specimens to the Mayo clinic, and to a clinic in Chicago for their interpretation and analization. I was told then that I had a 1 % chance of survival , the tumor had grown from a small nodule the first of Feb. to a golf ball sized tumor in 2-3 weeks. and had attached itself to my Larnyx and my asophagus and my voice was barely above a whisper.

I immediately started taking a bottle of the Xango jc. a day and flushed it all out with a gallon of distilled water a day, to get rid of all the toxins and restore new cells. I did as the Drs. said and opted to take the Chemo therapy and radiation therapy, along with the Xango and the distilled water. The Drs. wanted to treat this very Aggressive Cancer ,Very Aggressively, so put me through the treatments in 5 weeks instead of the usual 6 weeks. The treatments were over May 1st of this year and since the first CAT scan and the PET scan I have been free of the cancer. I am slowly regaining my voice. I feel very blessed and very special to have been introduced to this great product and again ,Thank you Mark for being there for me so I can spread this message to others.

Last Friday, Sept 21st, I saw my endocrinologist/oncologist and my general oncologist and they are still very pleased and surprised at the recovery and yet want to keep a close eye on this aggressive type of cancer.

God has a definite plan for my life and I fully intend to fulfill it and spread the message to as many as I can about Xango, the results of a little fruit that he grew in South East Asia and how I have been so fortunate to know about it at the right time,. I believe in the product and the terrific founders of our Co.

Testimonial - Mangosteen and Allergies

Mangosteen and Allergies , Debilitating Headaches, Repeated Sinus Infections

From Louis A., M.D. (M.D.,Yale University School of Medicine; M.P.A., Harvard University; Former Faculty Member of Harvard Medical School).

"I am sending you this e-mail to inform you of what I consider to be a truly remarkable therapeutic response from using Mangosteen.

As a physician who trained at the Yale University School of Medicine and is a former member of the Faculty of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, I have been somewhat skeptical of the health claims of many nutritional supplements.

Unlike most other physicians, however, I was always aware of the tremendous importance of nutrition as a factor in many of the most common illnesses, and I pursued a Master of Public Health degree at Harvard University in order to learn more about nutrition and the role of alternative treatments in maintaining optimal health.

I have always been open to using natural non-toxic treatments, so when I was contacted by a colleague about Mangosteen and the fact that it contained xanthones, I was very intrigued, because I had been aware of the fact that St. John's Wort, a popular antidepressant in Europe, contained xanthones which were in part felt to be responsible for its mood-elevating and energizing effects.

For years I suffered from a medical disorder known as allergic rhinitis which resulted in debilitating headaches, repeat sinus infections and required treatment with antibiotics. I had consulted with several ENT and Allergy specialists and was prescribed a variety of antihistaminic agents (Allegra, Zyrtec, Claritin, Nasacort, Flonase) with only marginal relief of my symptoms. I decided to try Mangosteen for my allergy symptoms after I reviewed some scientific literature and was surprised to discover robust evidence that the xanthones in garcinia mangostana L. actually inhibited histamine release and also reduced prostaglandin E-2 synthesis which is known to mediate allergic reactions in the human body.

To my utter amazement, I can bear witness to the fact that within 2 days of ingesting only one ounce of Mangosteen twice a day I had almost complete resolution of my allergic symptoms and was able to discontinue all of my antihistaminic medications.

Feeling that this was "too good to be true" I then initiated my own washout protocol by stopping the Mangosteen for one day. To my astonishment, the following day I was re-introduced to my former allergy symptoms of pounding headaches, congestion, and sneezing, which again resolved after restarting the Mangosteen Juice. It is exremely gratifying to know that there is strong scientific proof for the health benefits I experienced with Mangosteen.

The validation of this product by identifying the scientific role of xanthones allows me to refute the many skeptics who are biased against the use of all natural non-toxic treatments for medical illnesses and would rather worship at the alter of Big Pharma and buy into the medical establishment's view that all we need are stronger medications to vanquish all the world's diseases, notwithstanding the fact that the Institute of Medicine reports that adverse reactions to medications kill at least 108,000 people a year.

Throughout my medical career I have been disheartened to observe that in the U.S. we have more medicines but less health and I am immensely grateful that there exists a natural product such as Mangosteen which is health enhancing and non-toxic."

Cancer Testimonial - 21 Day Challenge

I want to share with you what Mangosteen juice has done for me. I developed Cancer last year (2006). I had 1 big tumor in the Colon. My cancer count was as high as 291. I was not drinking the juice at the time of my attack because I thought I was healthy enough not to.

Wrong... my Xango upline kicked it into high gear and sent me the juice for the 21 day challenge with the juice (that is drinking one bottle a day with 4 liters of water for 21 days).

I had my 1st chemo after the challenge. 20 days later I got my tests back and my numbers went down to 80. Second treatment blood count down to 10. I did a PET scan and they found another tumor of the same size(7ml) on my liver. I got it removed after 6 chemo treatments they found the tumor was dead. I was drinking 6oz per day after the 21 day challenge and my doctor was aware of it.

The nurse told me my CEA count would never go past 10 ever again. My tumor shrunk from 7ml to 3ml in 2 treatments. After all 12 treatments I did my last PET/CT scan and they found another piece of tumor that was left from the last surgery. I am going to the liver specalist this week and doing a resect. They tell me it is a live tumor but my CEA count is at 9 and they say my liver is very healthy. I feel great and people even say I look great (healthy) and I would have to say that the tumor is most likely dead as well. It is only 2ml in size and that was over 3 months ago. I will let you know how things turn out after the new year.

Mangosteen and Eczema

I have had eczema since I was a baby and nothing has ever helped.

This is what happened after drinking 'Mangosteen Juice' for 30 days.

A note from Grandad: My granddaughter Mariah had suffered from

eczema rash on the back of her leg for over 20 years. All the potions

and lotions couldn't make it go away. After drinking 2 ounces of

[Mangosteen Juice] daily, the rash was nearly gone in thirty days.

Now one year later, there is no evidence of eczema rash.

Testimonial for Diabetes / High Blood Pressure

Mangosteen Diabetes / Blood Pressure

In July 2006 I was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes. I felt I took care of myself fairly well, but I guess I didn’t. I wasn’t feeling well, my energy was down and boy could I sleep. I even took a 90 minute nap everyday. So I went to see a doctor who did some blood work, he had me do a 12 hour fast, before we drew blood. My findings, Blood Pressure 126/94, Blood sugar 276, HbA1C 11.7. Doctor told me I was diabetic and had probably been so for about 2 yrs.

So, I made some diet changes and began to do some aerobic exercises (walking, bike riding). I was able to bring blood sugar levels down to about 150’s for a few months. I was a bit frustrated because my goal is under 130. Oh, I’m trying not to use prescription meds to control it.

Well I got introduced to the mangosteen juice and decided to give it a try. I talked with a doctor who had clinical experience using the fruit to help control diabetes. What he told me was after using this supplement for a time my sugar would rise but then it would begin to come into range. But he couldn’t say how long that would take to achieve.

I decided to give it a try, after about 6 weeks of using it I experienced a drop of about 40 pts to my blood sugar. I am eating better, exercising and using mangosteen juice to help control my Type II Diabetes. My sugar numbers stay in the 130’s and my blood pressure is normal again. I am a Huge Believer!!

Frank Eagle's Xango Story

My Xango Story

I first heard about XanGo in January 2005 from a friend in Atlanta, Georgia He made all these hard to believable claims about what it had done for him. I checked out his website for maybe 20 minutes and forgot about it.

During the next six months, I was put on Narvasc for high blood pressure. I had been taking Acifex for Acid Reflux Disease for over three years and Zyrtec for allergies for nearly eight years. In June 2005 I decided to research this "miracle" XanGo.

I taught biology in high school for over 15 years and have some knowledge of human anatomy and how different disorders affect the body. I have always read with interest articles about natural remedies. After nearly two months of serious study, I began taking XanGo on July 27, 2005.

My doctor's office was only a block away from the retirement community I was managing. His staff had been watching my BP to see if the Narvasc would help to control it. The previous four months of taking the drug had done little or nothing to lower my BP. Within just two weeks of beginning XanGo my BP began to drop from a high of 170/110.

My doctor began to question my habits and life style, but the only change I had made to my life had been starting to drink XanGo. By early September, I began to slowly remove the Narvasc from my routine. My BP was 135/80 (my HS numbers) within three months.

During this time I found myself not needing my allergy medication. Not needing the Zyrtec or any other allergy drug was a true blessing.

I found during the first three months of XanGo, not needing antacids to supplement the Acifex I was taking. I slowly fazed the Acifex from my system.

Since December of 2005, I have had consistently normal BP, I have had no need for allergy medications and have been able to eat foods that for over three years I could not handle.

I could go on about an increase in energy, as well as being able to sleep much better than I've slept in years.

I'm sure many of you will find my claims to be as far-out as I did when I heard those claims of my friend three years ago.

All I am trying to do is encourage anyone who is skeptical to just try it for themselves for at least 90 days and see what it might do for you. If they don't see significant changes in their health, they will be the exception and not the rule.

Thanks for allowing me to share part of my XanGo story.

Mary's Story - Mangosteen and Bone Density

by Mary Wolters

As a Medical Technologist with more than 52 years practice in the Clinical Laboratories of major medical centers in Chicago, Ann Arbor and Phoenix, I was initially skeptical of the numerous testimonials written by consumers of the whole-fruit puree of mangosteen. These self-reports often involved only subjective observations. I wanted to see quantifiable results measured on standardized instruments utilized by professional medical personnel. However, when my business partner (Lynn Leonard) experienced some remarkable lessening of her MS-related symptoms, I decided there might, indeed, be something to mangosteen and its xanthones. I began drinking mangosteen juice myself.

Back in 2003 my physician, Dr. Milissa Cooper, had prescribed Fosamax to increase my bone density. Both Dr. Cooper and I were concerned that I not develop the severe osteoporosis that had made both of my parents’ lives miserable, especially my father who suffered multiple fractures. Sadly, I developed painful muscle spasms—a known side-effect of Fosamax--and Dr. Cooper recommended I discontinue its use. In September 2006 I had another bone density test at my physician’s office. At that time my bone density measured -2.4.

In October 2007 I again had my bone density checked on the same machine in my physician’s office. The same technician conducted the test. When I went in for my test results I saw that Dr. Milissa Cooper looked very happy as she looked at my chart. “Your bone density has improved from -2.4 to -1..6! What have you been doing?”

My reply was just as enthusiastic. “No changes other than I continue to take the original mangosteen juice—2 ounces, 3 times each day with my meals!” Dr. Cooper then instructed me to “stay on that juice!”

When I got home I used a calculator to compute the numerical extent of my bone density improvement. I was delighted to see a 33% value for my improvement—much greater than the percentages reported for most of the pharmaceutical products.

Having a safe, natural and effective alternative that spares me the agony my parents suffered from osteoporosis is truly a God send. And there are no side-effects!

Mangosteen "21 Day Challenge"

Recently, someone asked me how the Xango "21 Day Challenge" works, when faced with critical health issues such as cancer. (Hope you are doing better, A.).

The best explanation I have found is at Mangosteen Healthy Option, so thanks to them, and here it is:

1. Drink 1 whole bottle of Xango juice (about 25 oz.) per day for 21 days

2. PLUS about a gallon of distilled or purified water.

The “21-Day Challenge” proposes that individuals who have critical health problems — just about any form of cancer — issue a challenge to their health condition by committing themselves to drink an entire 25 oz. bottle of Xango juice each day for a period of 21 days, **PLUS** drinking at least one gallon (eight 16 oz. glasses) of pure water—such as spring or distilled water—along with the juice. The 4 to 6 hour half-life of Xango juice in the body would suggest that the consumption of both juice and water be spread out somewhat evenly throughout the 24 hours.

This is important in order to flush the toxins from the body. The only probable uncomfortable thing about it is the need to go to a toilet many times!

**NOTE: It is essential that the recommended amount of water be consumed along with the juice. As the Xango juice is consumed, the cells begin to function normally to clear and release toxins into the blood stream—and these toxins must be eliminated from the body. The rule of thumb for water consumption is 1/2 ounce for every pound of body weight for those who are sedentary, or 2/3 ounce for every pound of body weight for those who are active. For example, if you weight 100 pounds and are not active you would drink 50 ounces of water.

To make sure you are drinking all the water you need, find a large pitcher and fill it in the morning, making sure to consume all of the water before evening (refilled as necessary). Otherwise, you will think you’ve had enough water, but in fact, that is seldom the case!

(If you are unable to drink the required water, it is better to use less Xango juice)

Recommended intake per day:

BREAKFAST
20 min before breakfast:
drink 1/3 bottle Xango juice
NO distilled water consumed until right before lunch

LUNCH
30 min before lunch:
drink 1/3 gallon distilled water
10 min later
drink 1/3 bottle of Xango juice
20 min later
eat & enjoy lunch!

DINNER
30 min before dinner:
drink 1/3 gallon distilled water
10 min later
drink 1/3 bottle of mangosteen juice
20 min later
eat & enjoy dinner!

Drink the remaining 1/3 gallon distilled water
spread out over the rest of the day.
