About the Product
- Garcinia mangostana (mangosteen) is a tropical fruit with a slightly sweet and sour taste.
- It's native to Southeast Asia, but it can now be found in a variety of tropical climates around the world.
- Because of the deep purple hue of the skin when fully ripe, the fruit is frequently referred to as purple mangosteen. The juicy inside flesh, on the other hand, is a dazzling white color.
Health Benefits Of Eating Mangosteen
- Mangosteen is a low-calorie fruit that contains a number of vital vitamins, minerals, and fiber. These nutrients are necessary for a variety of bodily processes.
- Mangosteen contains antioxidant-capable vitamins as well as xanthones, a unique class of antioxidant chemicals that may help to prevent cancer

- Obesity. Obese or overweight people who take a product comprising mangosteen and Sphaeranthus indicus (Meratrim) twice a day appear to lose weight.
