Xanthones

Xanthones are quickly being recognized as the newest superstar of the phtyochemical world and XanGo's whole fruit process is the only dietary supplement to feature this powerful component! The xanthone family of phytonutrients can be found in trace amounts in certain fruits and vegetables, however, the pericarp of the mangosteen is the premier source where these nutrients are found in concentrated amounts. Studies actually name the mangosteen pericarp as the best source of xanthones. The fruit is full of xanthones. The fruit has a thick rind with 5 to 7 fleshy segments inclosed. The pulp has excellent flavor, and is proclaimed by many as the queen of tropical fruits. The proportion of edible pulp is rather small but the Xanthones are strongest in the thick rind. The trees bear sparingly making this one of the most expensive fruits. The juice made with the whole fruit is now being sold in many countries around the globe with remarkable results.

Xanthone

xan·thone – n. C₁₃H₈O₂ a unique class of biologically active compounds possessing numerous bioactive capabilities, such as antioxidant properties. Xanthones—found in the whole mangosteen fruit—may help maintain intestinal health, strengthen the immune system, neutralize free radicals, help support cartilage and joint function, and promote a healthy seasonal respiratory system.*

Among the powerful phytonutrients found in the rind of the mangosteen, xanthones stand alone in their impressive benefits. Scientific studies suggest xanthones may promote healthy bodily function. The whole mangosteen fruit, packed with naturally occurring xanthones, may help:

maintain intestinal health^*
strengthen the immune system^*
neutralize free radicals^*
support cartilage and joint function^*
promote a healthy seasonal respiratory system^*

Xanthones in Mangosteen

Researchers have identified dozens of biologically active xanthones in the mangosteen fruit. Today, researchers are just beginning to uncover the powerful scientific properties behind the mangosteen fruit.

What are Xanthones?

Xanthones are:

A unique class of biologically active compounds possessing numerous bioactive capabilities—such as antioxidant properties.
A restricted group of plant polyphenols, biosynthetically related to the flavonoids.
- o polyphenol – a group of plant chemical substances characterized by the presence of more than one phenolic group. Polyphenols are responsible for the color of some plants and are considered strong antioxidants with potential health benefits.
- o flavonoid – over 5,000 naturally occurring flavonoids have been characterized from various plants. The beneficial effects of plant-derived food are often attributed to flavonoid compounds—rather than known nutrients—as they show a wide range of biological effects.
Chemically speaking, planar-six carbon molecules in a conjugated ring system consisting of a backbone molecule and various chemical groups attached to it. The backbone consists of two benzene rings bridged through a carbonyl group and oxygen. Each ring is connected in a fused formation not allowing free rotation about the carbon-carbon bonds. This unique backbone along with type and position of the attached chemical groups define specific functionalities (properties) of xanthones.
