About Product

Mangosteen is a tropical fruit native to Southeast Asia known for its sweet and tangy flesh.

It has been used for its medicinal and health benefits for centuries, but only in the last few decades has it become widely available in the form of organic mangosteen powder.

Organic mangosteen powder is made from the dried and ground pericarp, the rind that covers the fruit.

This powder is a convenient and versatile way to obtain Mangosteen’s unique qualities in your everyday diet. It can be used in smoothies, added to yogurt and oatmeal, blended into dressings and sauces, or sprinkled on salads.

It is also a source of vitamin C, fiber, and other nutrients that can help promote overall health and well-being.

By including organic mangosteen powder in your daily routine, you can enjoy the many redeeming qualities of this fruit.

Some research suggests that Mangosteen may contain the following constituents:

Minerals: Phosphorus
Vitamins: Vitamin C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Pantothenic Acid, Beta-carotene
Phytochemicals: Proanthocyanidins, Catechins, Flavonoids, Polysaccharides, Sterols
Xanthones: A-Mangostin, B-Mangostin, 3-iSOMANGOSTIN, 9-hYDROXYCALABAXANTHONE, Gartanin, 8-Desoxygartanin, bPalmitic acid, Stearic acid, Palmitoleic acid, Oleic acid, Linoleic acid, Linolenic acid, Arachidic acid, Gadoleic acid, Eicosadienoic acid

Suggested Use: Mix one tablespoon with juice and yogurt or add to your favorite smoothie.

Mixing suggestions: To increase flavor and nutritional profile, combine with our organic premium acai powder in a smoothie.

CRAVING THIS PRODUCT

I crave the product every morning! But, it isn’t yummy delicious. Tastes like grass, dirt and gritty. But I go for it first thing. My body wants it even if my taste buds don’t. I add it to oatmeal. ( makes the oatmeal dark grass green) but, I don’t care. I think I may try it with apple juice to add flavor to it. Here is why I think my body knows to consume it: it has stopped cravings for sweets/candy etc. I’m not munching on bad treats. So, it’s managing blood sugar and keeping my energy leveled, rather than having sugar highs and lows. I’m getting to sleep versus using cbd/cbn to make me sleepy.

Great product

I am satisfied with the product

Great with colostrum

I put the mangosteen fruit powder along with apple juice powder in my morning drink of colostrum and it is absolutely delicious. I figured between the vitamins and mineral in the juice and Lord knows what else because of the colostrum you can’t go wrong for a morning starter. All excellent for keeping illness and especially cancer, flues and covid in check. My pH is 7 and sometimes higher.
