MANGOSTEEN TESTIMONIALS


Lupus
"I have Lupus (was diagnosed years ago with ebstein barr) and the mangosteen juice has relieved me of fatigue and muscle/joint pains. I also suffer from migraines with vertigo and after taking mangosteen for 2 months I no longer need my medicines for either of those." - Anonymous
Melanoma Cancer, Hypoglycemia, Migraines, Gout
The many health benefits Mangosteen provides have helped so many people that testimonials from individuals who have experienced these benefits appear almost every day.
Are these Mangosteen benefits just too good to be true?
Well, here are personal testimonials from those who have been helped by the natural compounds in Mangosteen. These personal experiences hopefully will encourage and inspire you to take the next step to better health.
Melanoma Cancer - Stage 4
"... In summer of 2002, Scott had been diagnosed with stage 4-melanoma cancer.
"It had spread to his Lymph nodes, which the doctors surgically removed, and seemed to be getting worse. The doctors told Scott they did not know if he would make it or not, and melanoma is the most aggressive cancer and can spread very rapidly.
"Last summer he underwent aggressive therapy. This therapy had made him very sick (it was actually killing him).
"He decided to go another route and choose interferon (self injected). He did that for several months but had a test in November 2003 and still had the cancer.
"In December Ann and I found out that mangosteen had been used by a Doctor in Phoenix on hundreds of patients to help relieve the effects of traditional medicine (chemo, interferon, etc.) with great success.
"Not only were the effects of the chemo and interferon relieved but also many patients were becoming cancer free. We told Scott about this and he began drinking mangosteen juice in December reluctantly.
"Ann met with Dr. Templeman who lectured on the benefits of the mangosteen fruit one day at a conference we attended in San Diego.
"After the lecture Ann met with him and he told Ann that "Stage 4 melanoma was a particularly bad cancer and if he were Scott he would be taking mangosteen juice and other supplements to help the body rid itself of this cancer".
"Of course we came back and suggested to Scott to be more agg ressive with the mangosteen, stop smoking, and begin an exercise program.
"In January Scott began drinking 1 bottle of mangosteen a week or more. He stopped the interferon treatments.
"Scott had a PET scan on Thursday March 18th 2004, and Ann and Scott met with the doctor on Friday for the results. The results were: Scott is cancer free! When the Doctor asked Scott what he attributed this to, Scott remarked "Mangosteen"! - Ann and Gregg
Mental Clarity, Energy, Hypoglycemia
"I am a news anchorman at a CBS TV affiliate in [city, state]. In late July, 2004, I learned of and began drinking Mangosteen juice. I noticed an increase in energy and an overall feeling of well-being within just a few hours of drinking my first two ounces of Mangosteen juice.
"Now, when I get up in the morning, I feel refreshed and wide awake all day long. I love the way I feel now that I have drinking this miracle juice drink. I drink only two ounces when I first wake up, and two when I get home from work after the 10pm News.
"I used to feel quite sluggish for at least a couple of hours after waking. This sluggish feeling had been going on for a number of years as I got older. However, that changed for me the very first week that I started drinking Mangosteen juice. I now feel wide awake and well rested all day long, even if I only sleep for only a few hours.
"Another benefit I have experienced is a heightened clarity in my thinking. This has really enhanced by performance in all areas. I can work faster and don't feel stressed the way I used to.
"I can honestly say that Mangosteen juice has made a very positive difference in my quality of life experience. I don't tire or stress out as I used to and I "feel healthier." I just feel good!
"I know that the Mangosteen juice is the reason. I didn't begin feeling this way until after I started drinking Mangosteen juice. Now, I won't be without it. If something makes you feel so good...it only makes sense to keep on drinking it.
"My wife also drinks Mangosteen juice and it has also given her an increase in energy and has kept her hypoglycemia under control. We are sold on this amazing product and won't be without it." - Richard
Migraines, Gout
"... I want the whole world to know how deliriously happy I am today. What a way to start the New Year!
"Marci started talking to me about mangosteen during our March planning meeting last year. I know I wasn't a good consumer target then and I apologize for that. My reluctance for the product last year was purely influenced by my doctor's opinion on alternative medicines - that is, natural herbal and chiropractic.
"Doctors are not trained to do alternative medicine and I wish they would include this area in medical curriculums. Besides, I have no scientific knowledge about the fruit and its benefits and I didn't want to go into something I didn't know anything about.
"My daughter Margarita, only 26, has had migraines for years. She's had headaches everyday -mild or strong attacks. Her doctor placed her on three different medications and it did not work. Recently, she was placed on Amytriptillin (an anti-depressant), which the doctor hopes it might work as it sometimes does on other patients.
"Well, it didn't! This condition really concerned me a great deal and has given me sleepless nights.
"As a mother, I cannot bear to think that my own daughter is taking Rx drugs just to survive each day. Notwithstanding the fact that it could be addictive over long-term use. She is a wife, a mother of two children, and a bank employee. My goal was to make her drug free and pain free.
"... I had to understand what "Xanthones" are. I went to the library, the Internet and had my doctor explain it further (he happens to specialize in microbiology).
"... I was very skeptical even if I was aware of the fruit being used in the Philippines in folk medicine. What the heck! I ordered the juice and gave it to my daughter. She took 2 oz. before meals morning and night as you said.
"Today is her 13th day of taking it and she has had only 1 mild headache, which went away after taking the juice when she felt it was coming (cross my fingers) - as opposed to having it everyday. That's right, everyday!
"This stuff is unbelievable!
"Having talked to her doctor, Margarita is off of her Amytriptillin and is on "as needed" category for one month.
"I realized it is a fruit juice. Its not drugs! While the doctors, FDA and the Pharmaceuticals makes us "guinea pigs" - its time to wise up. I figured, I think I should try it myself.
"As you know I have gout, but this condition has a "coat-tail" for me like high LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol), high blood pressure and thyroid problem. I am on maintenance medication (Atenelol, levoxyl, allopurinol and Norvasc) for two years or so. Interestingly enough, the side effects I have been feeling from taking all these drugs appeared to me as a "norm".
"Before the holidays, I had a flare-up and my recent blood test showed my liver was insulin resistant. Been on medication for a month or so for this flare-up and I still have pain in my toe joint. It comes and go and never really gone.
So, I tried [the Mangosteen juice] out of curiosity. On the 6th day that I have been taking it, the swelling was gone and I was already pain free!
"This is an amazing product, I thought. Proof to it was that I was already dancing like anything at Seven Feathers Casino Resort for our New Years Party. I felt my energy is back and I am back to normal "me". I am scheduled for lab work first week of February. I shall see then how it goes.
"Clearly, it has given me and my daughter good results and I am smart enough to maintain my "low purine diet" and 20-minute exercise everyday.
"Ruth, Charles, and Marci, I will forever be grateful to you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! - Cy
Pancreatic Cancer, Psoriasis, Stomach Cancer, Immune System
Mangosteen provides so many health benefits and has helped so many people that personal testimonials of individuals who have experienced the benefits of Mangosteen abound.
People who hear or read about these health benefits from the Mangosteen for the first time may be saying, "It's just too good to be true!"
Here are testimonials from those who have been helped by the powerful phytoceuticals in Mangosteen.
These inspiring personal experiences hopefully will encourage you to take the necessary steps to even better health.
Pancreatic Cancer
"... In 2000 my father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. As we finally began to recover from the shock our family pulled together as a team to support Mom and help to find a possible cure for this terrible invader.
"We found a myriad of possible remedies, some that even did some good, but all in all the best we could hope for was to comfort Dad's pain.
"The diagnosis gave him six to twelve months to live and even the few minor improvements that came from time to time, we had all resigned ourselves to the fact that we were losing our father to cancer.
"Dad went from various chemotherapies to surgery to radiation with little or no results, when the doctor's decided to begin some experimental drugs.
"In August of this year a good friend in the church told us about ["mangosteen juice"], a health supplement that strengthens the immune system and has had phenomenal results in helping so many people recover from life threatening illnesses.
"At this point Dad was not eating and couldn't do anything but sit in pain in his recliner and watch TV. He was just biding time.
"After seeing him that way we decided to try my friend's suggestion and order a case of [mangosteen juice], at least give it a try. We had nothing to lose.
"Three weeks after he began using the mangosteen mixture he was up with the family for Labor Day, camping the way he used to do. He was active, eating well and ready to indulge in a game of horseshoes with any challengers.
"No one could believe it, but we were all grateful to have him looking so well and actively enjoying his family again.
"The following week he was called into the doctor's office to get the results of his Cat-scan when the doctor told him that there was no sign of a tumor!
"Furthermore his blood work was back to normal. He has stopped taking all but one of his medications and is just planning on using that one up. [Mangosteen juice] was the only thing different during this remarkable recovery and we are so very grateful to have been blessed with such a phenomenal product.
"We owe our father's recovery to [mangosteen juice]!" - Darla
Psoriasis, High Blood Pressure
"I was a bit skeptical when I started using Mangosteen juice one ounce three times a day on July 12, 2004.
I've had moderately severe Psoriasis for 15 years. One week later I noticed a very definite improvement in my Psoriasis. I am not on any drugs for Psoriasis.
I also noted a definite drop in my blood pressure. My usual average BP checked 3 times a day was 144/90 (No BP meds.). After I started on the Mangosteen juice, my BP averaged 117/70 taken morning, noon & night.
I was also having a lot of arthralgia in my hips, knees & back, which is completely gone now." - Tom, M.D.
Stomach/Colon/Prostate Cancer
"On July 18, 2004, we left Brooke Army Medical Center in despair. Marshall (73) had just been released after undergoing colon cancer surgery. He had cancer in his intestines, his stomach cavity lining, and his colon. He had also undergone treatments for prostate cancer.
"The Doctors at BAMC told him he only had 4 months to live, and maybe 5 months, if he took chemotherapy. He said to his doctor that he didn't want to take the chemo, and he didn't.
"We told our good friend Jim about this and he said he knew of something which might possibly help. At that point, Marshall could barely walk, was very weak, had no energy, was ashen gray, and literally looked like "a walking corpse." It was like he had one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel. Marshall was also very depressed, and so was I.
"Jim took us to see his friend, Ed, and they told us all about the scientific research reports they had read about the "Garcinone E Xanthone" in the pericarp of the Mangosteen fruit, and had learned at a recent medical seminar.
"They spoke with a doctor who said there were no guarantees, or any claims that could be made, but he said that if he had these conditions, he would follow the doctor's advice, and also take a 25oz bottle of mangosteen extract a day for 21 days, along with a gallon of distilled water every day, and then go on 6oz a day of mangosteen and be re-tested.
"Marshall did just that. After the first 21 days, Marshall went to drinking 6oz a day (3oz in the am and 3oz in the pm), of the mangosteen juice, with lots of water.
"On November 29, 2004, over four months after his diagnosis, Marshall had blood work done, and on December 9, 2004 a cat scan was done at Brook Army Medical Center. A few days later, the doctor met with Marshall and me, and said "it really looks good." That "there are just a few small spots left, with nothing life threatening."
"Marshall is now feeling and looking really good. He has his strength and his life back. We walk a mile a day and dance every Friday night. We are so thankful to God, and for Jim and Ed for introducing us to the Mangosteen Juice!
"This Christmas will be a Very Special Christmas for us, because last July, it definitely appeared that Marshall would not be alive this Christmas." - Marshall & Mary Lou
White/Red Blood Cells - Low Count, Immune System Deficiency, Food Allergies, Eczema
"My testimony has to do with my youngest son, Eathan, who is now 4½ years old. When Eathan was 8 months old he was diagnosed with failure to thrive. He had some blood tests done and the results showed that his liver enzymes were elevated, but before anymore tests could be done he was growing and gaining weight again.
"When he was about 10 months old he contracted the RSV virus and had to use a nebulizer with steroid breathing treatments for about four weeks.
"When he was 15 months old he had a low grade fever that spiked in the middle of the night and caused him to have a febrile seizure. He was taken to the emergency room where they gave him a breathing tube and performed many tests.
"The doctors discovered that his red blood cell count was extremely low and his white blood cells were virtually non-existent. They gave him three blood transfusions which stabilized his red cell counts had but his white cell count was still extremely low and falling.
"After a bone marrow tap they discovered he wasn't producing any nutrifil cells, or baby white blood cells. They gave him a Nupagen injection. After a week in the hospital, he was allowed to come home.
"Since his bone marrow still wasn't producing any white blood cells, Eathan had to be quarantined for several months. With a white cell count as low as his, he couldn't be exposed to people. His immune system was so devastated that he could pick up something off a grocery cart that would give you and me a sniffle, and could be a death sentence to him.
"His hematologist started him on a Nupagen regiment. Nupagen is the miracle drug that helps build up one's white blood cell count. We have had to give him Nupagen injections 1-3 times a week for the past two years. These injections run about $250.00 each. This would help stimulate production of the white blood cells but would barely maintain them at an acceptable level.
"The doctor had warned us that it may take up to three to four years for his body to recover if it did at all. During this time he had a high level of food allergies caused by mal-absorption. This led the doctors to believe he also might have celiac disease, due to his elevated gluten levels. Along with all of these other problems he also had a moderate case of eczema.
"I was introduced to Mangosteen juice in mid October of 2003. I looked all over the internet for articles on the mangosteen. I couldn't find a reason not to give it to him. I ordered two cases and started giving him the mangosteen juice around the first of November, 2003.
Eathan had been on the mangosteen juice for about 3 weeks when I gave him his last injection of Nupagen right around Thanksgiving time 2003. He has been on Mangosteen juice for about 12 months and hasn't needed another injection for over eleven months.
"This Mangosteen juice has been able to elevate and maintain my son's white blood cell count to an acceptable level. He has no more food allergies and his eczema is completely gone.
"In the beginning his doctor was totally baffled by this. Now he truly believes that the Mangosteen juice is doing something. At his appointment last week he still didn't need a shot and his hematologist said, "Keep giving him that juice!" - Derrick

               

MANGOSTEEN TESTIMONIALS


MANGOSTEEN TESTIMONIALS
Allergic Rhinitis, Allergies, Alzheimer's Disease
Why are there a lot of testimonials about the health benefits of Mangosteen? Are the Xanthones and other natural plant compounds in Mangosteen for real?
Or is Mangosteen simply too good to be true?
Here are personal testimonials from individuals who benefited from Mangosteen.
We do hope these will inspire you take the first steps to even better health.
Allergic Rhinitis
"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.
"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." - Louis
Allergies, Sleep Problem and PMS
"... I've stopped using my homeopathic allergy nasal spray because allergies aren't a problem for me anymore. I rarely use Advil and am totally off any OTC sleep aids.
"(The Mangosteen juice) has also leveled out my monthly cycles and gotten rid of my PMS - my co-worker said she doesn't even know when that time of the month comes around for me anymore. (Every man alive will be getting this juice for his wife when they read that!)..." - Anonymous
Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, Migraine Headaches
"I am General Manager of an adult care home in Arizona. A few months ago, one of our residents' daughters brought a bottle of Mangosteen juice to our adult care home to try on her mother who has Alzheimer's disease.
"This resident is 86 years old. The results were amazing. Prior to taking Mangosteen juice, she was sleeping most of the day and it was very difficult to carry on a conversation with her. Now, after taking Mangosteen juice for approximately three months, she is alert during the day, vibrant and easy to communicate with. Since her results were so exciting, we began giving Mangosteen juice to four of our other residents with outstanding results.
"Resident 1 is a 72 year old Alzheimer's patient who prior to taking Mangosteen juice was sleeping all day, would not communicate and could not feed herself. Now after two months on Mangosteen juice, she does not sleep all day, she is alert, communicates with others and feeds herself.
"Resident 2 is an 86 year old Alzheimer's patient, is blind, has very stiff muscles, she has not talked or opened her eyes for several years and is bed bound. After being on Mangosteen juice for approximately two months, she now talks at times, moves her arms and legs occasionally and communicates without screaming. She now opens her eyes and is aware of her surroundings.
"Resident 3 is a 76 year old who has Parkinson's disease. Prior to taking Mangosteen juice she was very quiet, stayed in her room all day. Now after two months on Mangosteen juice, she comes out of her room for meals, is a lot stronger, her appetite has increased, and she now walks with minimal assistance.
"Resident 4 is a 94 year old who is very frail, has transfusions every three months, has a poor appetite and is anemic. Now, after being on Mangosteen juice for almost two months, she is eating well, much stronger and very happy.
"After seeing the wonderful results that the residents were experiencing, I started taking Mangosteen juice myself. I was suffering from migraine headaches. I have now gone several months with no migraine headaches.
"When I begin to feel the symptoms of a migraine, I double up on the Mangosteen juice dosage and do not have migraines. My energy level has also increased since being on Mangosteen juice." - Barba
Aneurysm, Breast Cancer, Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure
There are hundreds of personal testimonials about the health benefits Mangosteen provided individuals from all walks of life, who have experienced the power of Xanthones and other natural compounds in Mangosteen.
Are these mind-boggling health benefits from Mangosteen too good to be true?
The following are testimonials from those who have been helped by Mangosteen. We certainly hope that these will help you take the much-needed steps to even better health.

Brain Aneurysm
"A quick testimony about my 55-year-old cousin, Craig. In June 2003, Craig suffered a brain aneurysm while driving. It really wasn't expected he would make it, especially when he also suffered a stroke about a week later.
"Well, he recovered physically, but his memory was pretty messed up, both long term and short term. (As an example... in a 15 minute phone conversation, I had the same conversation with him 3 times. Not to mention, he thought I lived in Ohio - a cousin of ours lives there.)
"He and his wife have never been into health & nutrition, but about 5 months ago I got her to agree to give him an ounce of Mangosteen juice 3 times a day.
"A month later, I called and Karen was so excited in the change in Craig over the last month. He would talk about things that happened earlier in the day or the day before. And, when I talked to him, it was a completely normal conversation. No repetition. He knew where I lived. And, he even asked how our dogs where by name! Very exciting." - Debby
Breast Cancer
"... I was in my second round of chemo for breast cancer when I first started drinking mangosteen juice. I only drank the minimum dose of 2 oz. a day because I asked my oncologist about taking it during chemo.
"He said antioxidants should not be taken in large doses because it could make the chemo ineffective, but he also said I could get my antioxidants naturally by just eating the right foods. That is why I only drank 2 oz a day until I finished chemo.
"Then, I started drinking 6 oz. a day and I really recovered fast from the chemo. Also, I never got a cold or flu during chemo and am still in great health now 4 months post-chemo and radiation. Plus, I smile all the time now, and I call it my "happy juice!" - Eve
Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure, GERD, Degenerative Disc Disease, Arthritis, Peripheral Neuropathy
[This is from my mother. I am so blessed that this juice has changed her health!]
"I am 71 years of age and have many health issues - high cholesterol, high blood pressure, GERD (acid reflux), degenerative disc disease, arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, pacemaker (AV heart block) and peripheral neuropathy. I am not a diabetic.
"At my last physical in August my doctor ordered an additional cholesterol medication. I did have it filled but have not started taking it. My desire for months has been to delete the Lipitor, not add another one!
"My 34 year old daughter, Kris, was getting pretty excited about a Mangosteen juice she had been taking for a few weeks. She literally bounces in and out of our house and has energy I long for.
"Her concern for my health caused my husband and me to attend a very informative [mangosteen juice] meeting. I started with a bottle the next day drinking 2oz. 3 times a day.
"The third day I felt bad, achy and tired. I remembered what I had heard at the meeting and had read. I realized my body was getting rid of toxins, so I continued with the juice. Symptoms were gone the next day.
"The next several days I noticed some great changes - peaceful rested sleep, nighttime post nasal drainage stopped relieving the need for continuous swallowing, and renewed energy. When I vacuumed my entire house, I did not have a bad back ache! I stopped taking Tylenol PM totally. I stopped taking Colace 2xs/day totally.
"I had surgery on hammer toes (each foot) involving bones, pins and sutures in mid–September. I healed beautifully with no swelling or bruising and no pain. My doctor was amazed and very pleased.
"After walking on my heels for two weeks, I had no back pain. My chiropractor is amazed at how well I am doing and is now looking at [mangosteen juice] too. I am now drinking one ounce three times per day and anticipating more good results.
"THANKS, KRIS!"
12/5/04 Update: In November, my Mom had multiple tests run at Mayo Clinic. Her blood pressure has come down into normal range. Her cholesterol has dropped from 217 to 191, including a drop of 90 points in her triglycerides. Her bone density has improved since her previous test in 2002.
Her doctor's report reads:
"Since your previous analysis dated August 28, 2002, you actually have an increase in your bone density of 7.6% in the spine and of 2.6% in the hip. This is very good news, as at your age we typically mainly see stability or decrease in the bones and rarely see actual increases in the bone density…
At this time, I would not start the liquid Fosamax therapy as it does seem like your bones have improved…We do not need to add any more medications at this time." - Kris


Cholesterol, Neck Pain, Headaches
"I have been been taking Zocor, a cholesterol lowering drug, for well over 10 years. My cholesterol levels have been in the 235-250 range. Both of my parents also had high cholesterol levels.
"After being on Mangosteen juice for the past several months, the effects have now apparently kicked in, because my latest blood test came in this week at 194!! That's a 50 point drop from my last test, at a level of 244.
"The only thing different that I have done in my daily intake is to introduce Mangosteen juice into my daily diet (I take 4oz, 2x a day on a regular basis.) I have taken this amount of Mangosteen to help handle the pain and headaches following neck surgery in which 3 vertebrae in my neck were fused, 3 disintegrated discs were replaced with bone from my hip, and the 3 fused vertebrae were secured with a titanium plate and 4 screws.
"The Mangosteen has done a better job of handling my neck pain and headaches than the prescription and over the counter drugs that were prescribed. Prior to my pain relief experience, I had been very skeptical of what mangosteen might do for my pain, and that is a big understatement.
"This latest result of having a 50 point drop (from 244 to 194) in my cholesterol level has made me a big believer." - Yvonne
Colon Cancer, Crohn's Disease, Osteoarthritis

Are Mangosteen's numerous health benefits just too good to be true?
The following are personal testimonials from people who have been helped by the Xanthones in Mangosteen. These testimonials hopefully will help you take the necessary steps to better health and well-being.
Colon Cancer
"I am a 77 year old gentleman who never smoked in his life time and drank alcohol very moderately. I have had comparatively good health all my life up until November 8th, 2001 at which time I went to emergency. I was diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation which will continue for the rest of my life.
"On April 20th, 2004 I was operated on for malignant colon cancer and had a colostomy. Dr. S. Midwell, my surgeon said he removed 95% of the cancer and only 5% remained. That was left due to my not being physically able to endure 2 major surgeries at one time.
"I chose not to undertake radiation/chemotherapy treatment advised by my surgeon. I decided to go to the Hoxey Clinic (alternative medicine therapy) in Mexico. They put me on a strict vegetarian diet with a special herbal tonic and I improved rapidly. During all this time I had no pain.
"A couple weeks prior to November 8th, 04 I began to have pain in my lower rectum area. I returned to my surgeon and he found another tumor the size of a walnut. Reluctantly, I then began a 7 week radiation program under the strong advice of my surgeon.
"The radiation made me sick and nauseated. I should mention that during the month of October everyone, including myself, thought my life was ending. I began to lose weight, and was in pain when I would go to my house of worship for services. I had to lay on a lounge chair I was too weak and in too much pain to sit.
"Through the concern of a dear friend in December 2004, I reluctantly started Mangosteen Juice. I thought to myself, "another gimmick."
"At that time I was on 10 prescription drugs.
"I then started taking a Mangosteen juice regimen on December 4th, 2004.
"List of medications I was on:
1) Prochlorpreazine discontinued stopped medication: 12/07/042)
2) Hydromorphone discontinued stopped medication 12/10/043)
3) Flomax discontinued stopped medication 12/13/04
4) Digitex discontinued by cardiologist " " 12/14/04
5) Furosemide discontinued by cardiologist " " 12/14/04
6) Klor - con discontinued by cardiologist " " 12/20/04
7) Diltiazem HCL discontinued by cardiologist " " 12/20/04
8) Diazepam discontinued by PCP " " 12/10/04
9) Atonally discontinued by PCP " " 01/08/04
10) Warfarin sodium (Coumadin) ... Still taking
"If this is not a record, I don't know what is!
"Freedom from so many prescribed drugs in 30 days made me feel 10 years younger.
"It was during the last three weeks of my radiation therapy, that I informed my radiation doctor that I was on the Mangosteen Juice. He advised me to discontinue it, which I chose not to follow through with. I continued taking my 2 oz's of juice daily with meals along with the radiation.
"My radiation treatments then ended December 20th, 2004; at which time my doctor was unable to physically find any trace of cancer.
"I personally feel very positive it is all gone. Only time will tell. From the day I started taking Mangosteen I immediately started feeling better.
"Today I feel like I could run a 10 mile marathon. I can truthfully say I feel as strong & youthful as I was 10-15 years ago. I can only speak for myself.
"Yvonne, my wife started taking Mangosteen about 3-1/2 wks ago. She has much more energy now, and also has no more arthritis pain in her hands and fingers. The eczema she has had since childhood has completely cleared up.
"Every M.D. I have seen this past month cannot believe the changes in me. They say, "Jerry, we don't know what you're doing but keep it up!"
"It's unbelievable!" - Jerry
Crohn's Disease
"A friend of mine has a 10-year-old who was diagnosed with Crohn's. She was taking 6 pills 3 times a day. One was a steroid, which made her gain weight and the kids at school started to tease her.
"Now the only thing she uses is Mangosteen juice. She started out with one ounce a day the first week, 2 ounces the second week, and now she takes 3 ounces a day.
"Last time I spoke with them, she had already lost 6 pounds and she does not complain of any pain." - Elaine
Crohn's Disease and Osteoarthritis
"I was diagnosed with Crohns Disease and osteoarthritis eight years ago. Since I have been drinking [Mangosteen Juice] I no longer have to take medication for either. I am pain free and sleep like a log.
"I have so much more mobility and energy than I have had in the past ten years! I had been lactose intolerant since 1992. Products with lactose in them no longer bother me. My digestive problems are tremendously improved!
"All my friends have noticed the miraculous improvement in my health and have asked me 'What has happened? I tell them Mangosteen Juice came into my life!" - Artie

Dementia
"We had been going through quite a crisis with my 81 year old Mother. She was told that previous week that she failed some competency tests with the doctor and was told she could no longer drive and would be tested for medication to stop her dementia. This was traumatic to say the least. She is very independent.
"After reading the literature I decided Mangosteen juice might be beneficial for my Mom's memory. Three days later my Mom called with a whole new attitude about life. She decided on her own that it might be time to move to a retirement community as she did not want us to worry about her.
"That was great! But that is not the best part. Today my brother and I took her for her follow-up visit with the doctor and asked to retest her.
"She passed with flying colors!
"The doctor was amazed. She refused to put my mother on any medication and signed a note to the DMV stating that she could continue driving. The joy we shared is not able to be expressed in words. She has her energy, a sound mind, and her attitude is renewed on life.
"My Mom told the doctor about Mangosteen juice. She was very supportive and told her to keep on taking it. By the way, the retirement community idea is put on hold." - Norma
Depression
"Mangosteen juice for depression is an area that I saw immediate (well almost - 1/2 hour) results with, in my ADHD/ODD, sleep deprived, unmotivated 17-year-old son.
"After refusing medications for depression, my son tried the Mangosteen juice as a taste test basically upon receiving our first order. Within a half hour he returned from his bedroom hide-out, energized, talkative and clearly uplifted (he even cleaned out my refrigerator and cooked dinner that night!). A couple hours later he indicated that he thought "this stuff" really helped.
"Yes it helps with depression... not just my son but several others that I have shared this with have remarked almost immediately (within 24 hours) that they felt uplifted, including a 23 year old recovering breast cancer winner that had stopped using anti-depressants due to the lack of feelings that was resulting from their use.
"That said, my son's 8 years of Ritalin use has been discontinued. He struggles at times, particularly when required to sit and read at length, however, he is not as faithful to using Mangosteen juice as he recognizes he needs to be at times. When he uses it consistently, he does better and openly admits to this.
"Motivation... he will not be breaking any academic records this year, however, due to dealing with his depression better, he now sleeps better, has greatly improved school attendance. He is consistently working out at the gym, eating better and generally feeling better.
"I strongly suggest that you give this a try with your child. Encourage consistency in using Mangosteen juice and base amounts on child's size. My son is a big boy (although he has lost 20 pounds since resuming a more active, healthy lifestyle), and takes an average 2-3 ounces each time he uses it, which is 2 or 3 times per day.
"Now keep in mind I didn't say this cures everything... the obsessive compulsive side of my son has had to slow him down on the juice a few times when he drank close to a whole bottle one day!" - Cathie
Diabetes and Allergies
"... Last Saturday, January 8th, 2005, I met Ed at a men's fellowship breakfast at our church... I remarked about how the seasonal high cedar pollen in San Antonio is seriously affecting my allergies.
"He told me about the many all natural health qualities of mangosteen and the 43 xanthones contained within the rind, and suggested that I may want to try a bottle of [the original patented mangosteen juice] to see what beneficial effects it may have on my allergies, sleep patterns, and energy levels. I imediately said, "Sure, why not?"
"I decided to try it that day, and I obtained a bottle from Ed ... WOW! Was I quickly blessed by the quick results! I then learned that our pastor and his family are drinking mangosteen juice, with good results.
"The very first thing I noticed is that I was not feeling any allergic effects of Mountain Cedar, which for many years has bothered me in the late winter. Next, I noted my sleeping pattern had greatly improved. I seemed to sleep better, and in 4 days, I had lost four pounds.
I have also noticed that my energy level is much higher, and that I feel about ten years younger...not bad for a 64 year old! I am amazed and quite surprised with these very quick improvements that I am now experiencing.
"But next came the biggest surprise of all. I had not even mentioned my diabetes condition to Ed when we met. But, after speaking with my doctor on Thursday, I called Ed immediately to inquire if anyone suffering from diabetes had reported good results after drinking Mangosteen juice. He said that many instances of highly beneficial results have been reported to him by his friends and others suffering from diabetes, and also by doctors and health care practitioners, both personally and from their patients.
"Ed asked me why I had asked him about diabetes, and I then told him of my serious case of diabetes, and that my doctor had just called me to tell me of the very positive results of the semi-annual tests performed the day before.
"I explained to Ed that for the past 15 years I have suffered from diabetes and that at one time I took insulin four times daily. My doctor said, 'Paul, you are healed from diabetes.' I had never heard anything like that! Ever! I was actually rather shocked, as doctors usually say that diabetes will go 'into remission', but never say 'healed'.
"I cannot say with medical certainty that the Mangosteen juice is what brought about this wonderful change in my life, but I can say that drinking Mangosteen juice is the only change I have made in my diet and in my life.
"Inasmuch as I have also suffered several heart attacks and have suffered from congestive heart failure, as well as asthma, and high blood pressure, I am always looking for ways to improve my health and my life.
"The Mangosteen juice certainly seems to have done something wonderful for me because it is the only change that I have made in my life during the past week and what a difference that one simple change has made! And besides all that, I love the taste of the [the original patented mangosteen juice]!
"I believe this wonderful juice can help everyone I know, love, and come in contact with to enjoy a better life, and I cannot imagine anyone who knows about it keeping this wonderful mangosteen juice a secret! I certainly won't! I am telling all my family, and everyone I know and everyone I meet about it, and what it has done for me." - Paul
Diabetes - Type 2
"... My husband was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes more than 10 years ago and always had trouble keeping his blood glucose level within the normal range, even with medications and watching his diet closely. He always checks his blood sugar first thing in the morning.
"After drinking mangosteen juice (1 oz. twice a day) for less than three weeks, he noticed that his blood sugar was considerably lower and well within the normal range in the mornings. He has been drinking it since first week in May and his sugar levels remain within the normal range.
"He still takes the medications, too, but is very pleased (as is his doctor) that it is under control having added mangosteen juice.
"I wish we had been drinking mangosteen juice in the years before we developed health problems (had it been available then, of course), but am so happy to have it now!" - Judy

Eczema
"... I have a five-year-old daughter that suffered with Eczema that took all the over-the-counter drugs and creams and prescription strength Protopic cream to control her Eczema.
"Last year at Halloween I started her on the Mangosteen juice and it took 1 oz. two times a day to get hers under control, and then I topically rubbed it on her legs and layered lotion on top of that, then put on her cotton Pajamas.
"After one month her Eczema was gone. We ran out of the juice and one week later the rash started up again. After we were able to finally get rid of it, we now only have her take the juice 1 oz. a day as preventative.
She has had no more Eczema since November last year..." - Kim
Endometriosis
"I am a 27 year old mother of three, and I started experiencing effects of endometriosis when I was 20 yrs old and as the years have gone on it has gotten worse and worse.
"I was having cramps and pains for over two weeks a month and practically living on pain killers whether it be ibuprofen or perkaset.
