Mangosteen Fruit - Science And Research

There are quite a few scientific research studies published on the mangosteen fruit and the xanthones found in mangosteen. Here are a few resources to gain further information on the studies that have been published on mangosteen.

Two things to keep in mind:

• All of the studies have been preliminary in nature
• All of the studies were done in a labratory, and did not study the actual effect in the human body
• None of these studies were done on any commercially available mangosteen product
