THE MANGOSTEEN FRUIT
Mangosteen Pericarp - a delicious fruit grown in
Laboratory tests have indicated that the xanthones in mangosteen pericarp have activity against several cancer cell lines including breast, liver, and leukemia.
Xanthones also contains anti-histamine and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as helping to assist with healthy blood sugar levels.
Mangosteen Fruit (Garcinia Mangostana) THE Health BenefitsThe accumulated knowledge of centuries of ancient Asian medicine has been passed down from generation to generation and also passed on to early European explorers and settlers. Consequently it is no wonder that so much recent modern scientific research has been conducted on the Mangosteen and the beneficial properties of the pericarp (rind).
An enormous amount of modern study and research has been channelled toward unlocking the secrets of this remarkable fruit. Scientists have actually identified the major compounds found in the Mangosteen that are responsible for its healthful characteristics.
These days, just about everybody knows about free radicals and the damage they wreak on the body and most would know, to counteract the effects of free radicals, we need a diet high in antioxidants. Free radicals attack the cells in our bodies every second of every day, whilst antioxidants work actively with the immune system to the repair the damage before cellular degeneration occurs. If the balance between free radical attack and the body's ability to overcome free radical activity is weighted on the side of the free radicals... well you are destined for early onset of metabolic disease and a premature death!
Much has been made of the extensive antioxidant properties of vitamins, especially Vitamin C and Vitamin E. But did you know that there exists an antioxidant that is much more powerful than any vitamin?
This powerful, life-enhancing substance is called Xanthone.
There is a whole family of Xanthones, and the most dynamic of these are found in the amazing whole fruit Mangosteen which includes the pericarp. While most people know about the antioxidant benefits of Vitamins C and E, far fewer are aware of the incredibly potent antioxidant power of Xanthones and many other phyto-chemicals. Xanthones are natural plant chemical substances that have recently won high praise from numerous scientists and researchers. Xanthones have been studied for their medicinal potential, since they demonstrate a number of pharmaceutical properties and are proving to be exceptional substances for good health.
The Research on Xanthones: Xanthones have been the subject of quite a degree of research for several decades. They're found in a select number of rain forest plants and dark red fruits, but nowhere are they found in more abundance than in the pericarp or rind, of the Mangosteen fruit. This smooth, purple/dark red covering that was traditionally ground with ancient mortars and used to heal infection turns out to be the mother lode of beneficial Xanthones and potent antioxidants.
The two most beneficial Xanthones found in the Mangosteen have been named Alpha Mangostin and Gamma Mangostin. When isolated and thoroughly tested by researchers, these two Xanthones have been found to carry a host of benefits. According to professional journals such as Free Radical Research, Journal of Pharmacology, and the Indian Journal of Experimental Biology, these Xanthones have a remarkable effect on cardiovascular health; are naturally antibiotic, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory; and are amongst the most powerful antioxidants found in nature.
Research laboratories around the world have now been helping us understand how the Mangosteen fruit imparts such wonderful benefits. Modern science is just catching up with what herbal doctors have already known for centuries about mangosteen.
For more information go to www.pubmed.com and search for “Xanthones" or "Garcinia Mangostana" in the database and read the scientific research.

THE ACAI
Acai 
Acai is reported to be the No. 1 SuperFood in the world. Acai has a higher ORAC value than any other berry on the planet. Acai contains more anthocyanins that any other food.
Anthocyanins have been shown to restore mental function, concentration, memory, mental clarity. They are also known for capillary health which in turn helps with oxygen uptake, sexual performance, and the reduction of macular degeneration (vision loss due to aging). Due to their ability to protect the brain form free radical damage anthocyanins are reputed to be one of the most valuable anti-aging anti-oxidants known.
The
famous research regarding the "French Paradox" attributes anthocyanins
as being the antioxidant that protects the French from heart disease. The
French consume large amounts of coffee, nicotine, sugar, white flour and cheese
and yet they have a relatively low incidence of heart disease compared to
their neighbors in the
Cancer,
heart disease, diabetes are all known to be metabolic diseases associated
with aging. Supplying your body with quality "anti-aging" anti-oxidants
contained in whole foods as is the case with the freeze dried Acai
Acai Berries, ORAC, Omegas and Anthocyanins
We know, just the title of this article is enough to have your eyes glaze over and fall asleep at the computer. Don't worry, we will not get too technical and boring, but if you want to learn about how Acai works its magic - you need to learn a little science…
What are Free Radicals and Antioxidants?
We are all made up of atoms. Atoms that have a full outer shell of electrons tend to be happy, peaceful and inert atoms. They tend not to enter into chemical reactions and enjoy a mellow life in your body.
Atoms that do NOT have a full outer shell of electrons are unhappy and unstable. Something is missing in their life - and they very badly want to get another electron so they can be stable and inert. These unstable atoms are called - Free Radicals.
Free radicals tend to move quickly to try to steal an electron from whatever molecule happens to be around them. Of course, whoever they steal an electron from becomes a new free radical and the process is like a domino effect.
Free radicals are not evil or bad - in moderation. Our body performs many functions and there will always be some free radicals created. However, if the level of free radicals gets too high in the body, you can run into major problems. Numerous diseases and health issues have been linked to high levels of free radicals.
One of the more common types of free radicals are oxygen free radicals. These are oxygen atoms missing an electron. You know that rust you see on the side of your car - well the same thing basically happens inside our body. Oxidative stress is what it is called when oxygen free radicals start to cause damage in your body.
What causes Free Radicals?
Breathing, eating, moving - basically living! Yes, basically any stress we put on our body can cause free radicals. While obvious things like polluted air, smoking, stressful events and unhealthy foods can cause free radicals - many "healthy" activities can also create free radicals. Almost any type of exercise will put stress on our body - we all know the saying "no pain, no gain". Well, all this stress on our muscles creates free radicals.
Antioxidants to the rescue
So, how do you turn a free radical into a harmless cell? You give the free radical the extra electron it so desperately wants. What substance can supply this extra electron? You guessed it - antioxidants. Antioxidants are any substances that prevent or slow the oxidation process. Remember, free radicals cause oxidation - and antioxidants prevent oxidation. Antioxidants work by donating an electron to a free radical so it becomes a stable oxygen molecule.
What is ORAC?
ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity. ORAC measures the ability of just about any substance to subdue oxygen free radicals in the test tube. In short, ORAC is a lab assay that can measure the antioxidant activity of any substance and give it a number. The higher the ORAC number - the stronger the antioxidant properties of the substance.
National Institute on Aging developed the ORAC method and the US Department of Agriculture and Brunswick Labs have been instrumental in perfecting the ORAC assay procedure and testing various foods to determine ORAC levels.
While the exact science behind ORAC gets beyond the scope of this article, it is clear that if you want foods with greater antioxidant properties, you look for foods with high ORAC levels. The USDA recommends we consume 3,000 to 5,000 ORAC units daily. In truth, 80% of the population is consuming less than 1,000 ORAC units a day. The USDA recommended "5-a-day" fruit and vegetable servings will give you an ORAC score of about 1,750 units.
Fruits and vegetables tend to have the highest ORAC values. Per 100 grams - Apples score a 218, Bananas a 221, blueberries 2,400. And what about fresh Acai? Acai has an amazing 5,500 ORAC score.
How about Anthocyanins?
Have you ever seen beautiful purple flowers? How about a deep
red grape or a bright red
Fruits (like the Acai Berry Fruit) that are exposed to strong sunlight face a tremendous amount of ultra violet light stress. This UV light triggers free radicals to form in the fruit. Fruits, such as the Acai berry, develop high levels of anthocyanins because they have very strong antioxidants properties and can quench the free radicals. Here is the interesting part - the antioxidant properties of anthocyanins are maintained even after they are eaten by another organism. This is why fruits with bright pigmentation tend to have the great ORAC values - they are loaded with anthocyanins. Acai berries have a tremendous concentration of anthocyanins.
The French Paradox and Anthocyanins
The French have a diet very rich in cheese, sugar, coffee, nicotine, sugar and white flour. With this type of diet you would expect the French to have a very high rate of heart disease, however, the exact opposite is true. The ability of the French to consume a heart clogging diet and yet have a very low rate of heart disease has been labeled the French Paradox.
Researchers now believe they have the reason for the "French Paradox" - anthocyanins! The French drink a significant amount of red wine and the the red wine grape, due to its anthocyanins is what is believed to be responsible for the very low incidence of heart disease. While red wine has a good quantity of anthocyanins, the Acai berry has over 30 times the anthocyanins as red wine.
Omega Fats - giving fat a good name
Let's face it - fat is not a pretty word. Most people would think that the phrase "fat and healthy" is an oxymoron. However, when you start talking about Omega fatty acids you realize that the right fats can be very healthy and beneficial.
The three most common forms of Omega Fatty Acids are Omega-3, Omega-6 and Omega-9. While it is beyond the scope of this article to go into the full chemistry of fatty acids (and we would certainly put ourselves to sleep just writing it), suffice to say that significant research has shown numerous health benefits to a diet high in unsaturated omega fatty acids. In fact, on September 8, 2006, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave "qualified health claim" status to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) omega-3 fatty acids, stating that "supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease." While that may not sound like much, for the FDA to allow any healthy claim on something that is not a drug is very impressive.
The nutrients in Acai can help:
. Maintain the healthy function of bodily systems and organs
. Increase energy, libido and stamina
. Promote healthy, glowing skin and hair
. Support immune system
. Act as a powerful anti-inflammatory
Help rejuvenate your mind, body and spirit
Here are some direct quotes from the USDA website -
"Studies
at the
Ronald L. Prior, the researcher for the USDA study went on to suggest that "the ORAC measure may help define the dietary conditions needed to prevent tissue damage."
"Science has long held that damage by oxygen free radicals is behind many of the maladies that come with aging, including cardiovascular disease and cancer. There's firm evidence that a high intake of fruits and vegetables reduces risk of cancer and that a low intake raises risk. And recent evidence suggests that diminished brain function associated with aging and disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases may be due to increased vulnerability to free radicals, says Joseph, a neuroscientist. "
Goji
It has been used as an energy, restorative and longevity tonic food. It also helps with a wide range of ailments from skin rashes and eyesight problems to diabetes.
The Goji fruit is a very rich source of vitamins and minerals, especially in vitamins C, E, flavinoids, beta carotene and other bio-active compounds. It is also a good source of essential fatty acids, which is unusual for a fruit.
Goji is also being studied as a food that is capable of reducing the incidence of cancer and also as a means of halting or reversing the growth of cancers.
Goji
Plant Source: Lycium barbarum L. and L. chinense Mill. (Family Solanaceae).
Other names: Chinese Wolfberry, Lycium Fruit,
Tibetan Goji
Background information: The name Tibetan Goji Berry is in common use in the natural health food market. Berries from the Goji plant that are claimed to have been grown in the Himalaya/Tibet region form the basis of a very large health food market. The etymological origin of "Goji" is unclear but it is likely a simplified spelling of gǒ uqǐ.
Both species of Goji (Lycium barbarum and Lycium chinense) are deciduous
woody perennial plants, growing 1-3 m high. L. chinense is grown in the south of
In addition to being cultivated in
Goji berries, (lycium) have important roles in traditional Chinese medicine, where they are believed to enhance immune system function, help eyesight, protect the liver, boost sperm production, and improve circulation and longevity, among other effects. Goji berries are sweet in taste and neutral in nature; they act on the liver, lung, and kidney channels and enrich yin. Goji berries can be eaten raw, brewed into a tea, or prepared as a tincture. Goji berries are nutritionally rich, containing beta-carotene, Vitamins C, B1, B2 and other vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and amino acids. The berries contain such nutrients as isoleucine, tryptophan, zinc, iron, copper, calcium, germanium, selenium, phosphorus, B6, and vitamin E.
Properties: Yin tonic, improves vision, boost sperm production, benefits complexion, nourishes Liver and Kidney, replenishes vital essence (semen), powerful antioxidant, antimutagenic, improves circulation, anti cancer properties.
Benefits of Goji
Goji Berries contain many complex phyto-nutrients and
bio flavinoids: Betaine, which is used by the liver to produce
choline, a compound that calms nervousness, enhances memory, promotes muscle
growth, and protects against fatty liver disease. Physalin, which is active against all major
types of leukemia. It has also been used as a treatment for hepatitis B. Solavetivone, a powerful anti-fungal and anti-bacterial
compound. Beta-Sitoserol, an anti-inflammatory agent. It
has been used to treat sexual impotence and prostate enlargement. It also
has a cholesterol lowering effect. Cyperone, a sesquiterpene that benefits the
heart and helps maintain normal blood pressure. It has also been used in the
treatment of cervical cancer. The

Most Common Traditional Uses of Goji berry: General weakness, lack of energy, aching back and joints, tinnitus, dizziness, diabetes, blurred vision, cough, wet dreams, sexual inadequacies.
Modern/Recent Uses:
Internal: - Toxic side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
External: - Burns, ulcers, bedsores, frostbite, furuncles.
One of the most well-known traditional properties of Goji berry fruit is its ability to improve vision. This has been documented for over fifteen centuries. Modern scientific studies have finally supplied some substantiation to this property. It turns out Goji fruit not only contains high amounts of b-carotene (~ 8 mg/100g) but this b -carotene is in a highly biologically active form which is readily utilized by the body.
However, b -carotene is not the only
nutrient in Goji
fruit. Goji is also reported to be very rich
in amino acids (half in free form), other vitamins (B1, B2, C, nicotinic acid,
etc.), and polysaccharides that have antioxidant and immuno-modulating effects
in experimental animals as well as other nutrients. Since oral administration
of Goji fruit to humans in various studies
have also improved their immune functions, raised the serum levels of superoxide
dismutase (SOD) and haemoglobin but lowered the level of lipid peroxides as
well as reduced senility symptoms, the polysaccharides obviously are an important
active component of lycium fruit. Yet only about 25 years ago, scientists
in
Another well-known and long-documented traditional property of Goji fruit is its ability to "benefit complexion and maintain one's beauty"; Goji is also considered to have anti-aging properties. To drug-oriented American scientists, this certainly sounds ridiculous. But various studies have shown Goji fruit to have numerous beneficial effects, including, antioxidant, immuno-potentiating, antimutagenic, hypoglycaemic, hypolipemic, hypotensive, etc., all of which contribute to the slowing down of the aging process or help us live longer.
The beautifying property of Goji fruit may have some scientific basis after all which may justify its use in skin-care cosmetics, as recent laboratory studies not only demonstrated its antioxidant effect but also its ability to increase dermal hydroxyproline level in mice, indicating increased collagen synthesis. All these effects are good for the skin.
Medicinal Use Research: - A sweet tonic decoction made from the Goji fruit has traditionally been used to lower blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels.Goji acts mainly on the liver and kidneys.. Goji fruit has traditionally been taken internally in the treatment of high blood pressure, diabetes, poor eyesight, vertigo, lumbago, impotence and menopausal complaints[
Goji fruit is harvested when fully ripe and is dried for later use. The Goji root bark is a bitter, cooling, antibacterial herb that controls coughs and lowers fevers, blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels.It is taken internally in the treatment of chronic fevers, internal haemorrhages, nosebleeds, tuberculosis, coughs, asthma etc. It is applied externally to treat genital itching[. The bark is harvested in the winter and dried for later use[5]. Diuretic, purgative, The plant has a long history of medicinal use, both as a general, energy restoring tonic and also to cure a wide range of ailments from skin rashes and eyesight problems to diabetes. A tonic tea is made from the leaves. The fruit of many members of this genus is a very rich source of vitamins and minerals, especially in vitamins A, C and E, flavanoids and other bio-active compounds. Goji is also a good source of essential fatty acids, which is unusual for a fruit. Goji is being investigated as a food that is capable of reducing the incidence of cancer and also as a means of halting or reversing the growth of cancers.
