The Inflammation Link and mangosteen

Doctors and medical researchers are starting to realize (according to several articles and research papers) that chronic inflammation might be the underlying cause for most diseases. The article first published in Time Magazine, February 2004 offers an easy to understand explanation of why this should be the case. The following excerpt from the above mentioned article should sum it up for you (specifically highlighting cancer) and forms the basis of why the mangosteen puree is so extraordinarily effective in supporting our system when ill – or more importantly – in preventing disease.

The Fires Within

Inflammation is the body's first defense against infection, but when it goes awry, it can lead to heart attacks, colon cancer, Alzheimer's and a host of other diseases

Allow it to work for YOU and YOUR family

According to Dr Oz, (a Turkish American cardiothoracic surgeon, author, host and commentator for The Dr. Oz Show, a daily television program focusing on medical issues / personal health) mangosteen is one of the 5 super foods of the world, with the healing power of some 43+ xanthones found in the pericarp of the fruit. Xanthones are phytochemicals known for their anti-inflammatory, cancer-fighting anti-oxidant properties, which are the root cause of most health related problems.

Xanthones are not naturally found in everyday foods, but mostly in the bark of trees or rind of fruit, which for the most part are inedible and only yield at best 1 or 2 xanthones. 

Xango purees the whole mangosteen fruit, including the pericarp, to bring you a flavorsome, powerfully efficacious juice that is good for the whole family (including pets). From those suffering with Alzheimers, Autism, ADHD to those with Fibromyalgia, Diabetes, Depression, and heart conditions.

Please be warned...

There is a SCAM going around that a lot of people have fallen for.

 

It's a program where you work your butt off for someone else for 40 hours a week, for 40 years, get a $40 Gold Watch, and then try and Live on 40% of what you couldn't live on while you were working 40 hours a week.

A Second Income is No Longer an Option

"Those that think they can and those that think they can't,
are both right." -Anonymous


Years ago, one income per family was enough to live a fairly
comfortable life style.  However, the times have changed.

Today, one or even two incomes per household are simply 
not enough to get by, let alone live life on your terms.  
However, I am prepared to offer you a solution to your financial challenges.

How long have you been thinking about starting a Home Based /
Second or third income Business? 

The 45 year plan?

Ever heard of the 45 Year PLAN?

ADHD meds.....know anyone on Ritalin or Concerta?

An interesting article from Natural News

Today I am bringing you news from the world of ADHD, because scientists claim they have found a difference in the brains of children with ADHD versus "normal" children. The brains of these children who have been diagnosed with ADHD were scanned with an MRI machine. They compared 40,000 different points in their brains looking for signs of thickness in the brain tissue.

They discovered that the brains of children diagnosed with ADHD were a little behind schedule in growing. Yes, you heard that right. They said they are about three years behind the brains of other children. Everything else was normal. They said if they wait three years those children will catch up and turn out just fine.

Now who is "they?" Dr. Phillip Shaw from the National Institute of Health, which is probably the National Institute of Mental Health -- they are the ones who did this research and this research has been making the rounds in mainstream media. You hear stories about it all over the radio. I heard one on national public radio today.

It just blew my mind. I will tell you why in a minute. Headlines in newspapers and magazines, TV news, cable news networks all across the country -- they have experts on there now claiming that ADHD is a physical disease. There is something wrong with the brains of these children. Apparently they forgot to look at the research that came out just two days before. Do you know what that research shows?

Mangosteen Testimonials submitted for Cancer

CANCER – Prostate
“I was diagnosed with stage 4 Prostate Cancer and given 3-6 months to live!”
In February of 2005, I was given 3-6 month to live after being diagnosed with prostate cancer. My PSA score was 1500. I started chemotherapy and became very ill, unbearable hiccups; bad breath; pain; fatigue; weakness and I could not walk without a walker. In March of 2005, I learned about the Mangosteen Juice with Xanthones. I wanted to believe everything that I heard and read but was afraid to take it with the chemotherapy. I got too sick after three chemotherapy treatments, I was getting weaker and weaker. I fell and I could not get up, I went to the hospital and they told me I would have to start injecting myself daily and that the medication would cost $ 4,000 for a ten day supply. One hospital bill alone was over $46,000. I had no medical insurance. I was left for dead. I turned to God. I prayed for a healing and then I decided to give the Mangosteen Juice a serious try in March 2005. My prayers were answered immediately. The first day I had more energy that I could remember and my horrific bad breath went away.
In two days the pain was subsided and I did not need the walker anymore. I started to feel stronger and stronger. I drank a 25 ounce bottle [Mangosteen Juice] a day. On May 1, 2005 my PSA score had gone from 1500 to 3. I am now cancer FREE. I feel terrific. 

I am so thankful to be a alive and well. I will drink [Mangosteen Juice] for the rest of my life and encourage everyone who wants to restore his health to do the same. I thank God for [Mangosteen Juice] and so will you. 

The Best of Health to You,

Love F.

I just found out...!

that life is way too short to spend all of your time working for other people, just to make them rich while you continue struggling to "just get by".

It's time you were let in on a little secret that the rich use to get that way, that most others don't even know about?

Let me share with you their secret right here, right now.

It's called "leverage" and this one concept is so powerful when you understand it, that it could allow you to go from where you are, to where you want to be.

You see, if you work a job for 40 hours per week, you will get paid for 40 hrs.

Work; get paid. Work; get paid. Work; get paid.

But what happens if you don't work?

That's right!

You don't get paid.

Most people love the idea of working 40 hrs per week, but being paid for 10 times more.... of course there are people who don't...that's ok too – those are the people who would rather complain or sit in front of the tv or facebook, I'm sure you know the type?

You see, this is how successful people got that way and you can too, when you learn the right methods to build your own Home Based Business.

Your boss does it. Wealthy people do it. I'm doing it.

Why shouldn't you?

What are the 3 types of income and which is best?

For most people, achieving success in Home Based Business means a lot more than just earning more money. It also means more time freedom, more relationship freedom and a better lifestyle. It means paying off the bills, getting out of debt and having more peace of mind. It also means having money flow into your bank account every single month, whether you work or not.

It does not mean having to wake up to an alarm clock every morning, jumping out of bed and trading your time for dollars, only to rush off and make someone else rich.

So, in order to achieve great success working from home, you must first understand the difference between Linear Income, Leveraged Income & Passive Residual Income. Let's take a look:

Mangosteen, Cancer and Autism

It has become legitimate to kill people with chemotherapy by giving a patient as much as they can tolerate, ad infinitum, devastating the haemopoietic system (formation of blood cells) and debilitating the immune system until they cease to respond. I have seen too many people die due to the side effects of their treatment (not only cancer)  rather than the disease. This is considered acceptable? It distresses me immensely! Dr. Amod Tootla talks about Mangosteen, Cancer & Autism on Willoughby Webinar Monday Night July 18 at 9:00pm CT/10ET.

Mangosteen health guidelines

Information to help determine when to take Mangosteen juice.


These guidelines are NOT set in stone. (The only Mangosteen Juice I feel comfortable to recommend is XanGo) by Dr Les Berenson, MD (19 July 05)

Prevention: (No health challenges) – 30ml 2-3x / day with food

One of the greatest advantages is to potentially PREVENT chronic disease (cancer, heart disease, arthritis, Alzheimer’s)

Kids, 6-12 yrs.: 1/2 adult serving

Toddlers younger than 6 yrs or infants weaned onto fruit juice: 1/4 adult serving

Minimal health concerns: 60ml 2-3x / day with food

Severe health challenge: 90ml 3x day i.e. severe pain

Cancer protocol: Enquire about the ‘21-day challenge’

Treatment of health concerns: usually between 60ml 2x / day up to 90ml 3x / day.

• Increase amount up to 90ml 3x /day for 1-3 months BEFORE saying Mangosteen Juice doesn’t work.

• Avoid the 1 bottle mentality – 1 bottle is often NOT enough to feel any significant change. It may take several bottles – or even cases to see and feel benefits. Don’t deprive yourself of these benefits by quitting too early. Rest assured that the Mangosteen is working at cellular level to repair damage that you might not even be aware of.

Our experience is that people see significant (even profound) benefits if they use the juice CONSISTENTLY for at least 3 months at the correct dosage.

How can one fruit possibly do so much good?

In an interview with Drs J. Frederick Templeman, MD (Medical Director at Phytoceutical Research, LLC) and David A. Morton, Ph.D. (Gross Anatomy Course Director & Assistant Professor of Neurobiology and Anatomy at the University of Utah) the doctors look at the available science on the mangosteen and then ask the challenging question, "Does mangosteen make sense to you?" ...

How does one fruit address so many conditions in the body? Isn't it just too good to be true?

The focus is on the xanthone molecule. It is an amazing structure – having double bonds in the molecule – which right away suggests stability, making it harder for the molecule to be broken – and what is unique about the xanthone molecule is that it has different side groups – it's called R-groups in chemistry – at each of these numbered positions. Every time you alter the side group on that molecule, the molecule will have a different function in the body...

The Dirty Dozen Chemicals in Cosmetics

Did you know:


* 33% of personal care products have been linked to cancer
* 45% are reported to be potentially harmful to our reproductive systems and/or foetal development
* 60% have ingredients that can act like estrogens or disrupt hormones

Campaign for Safe Cosmetics

Do any of your products have these harmful ingredients?

The Dirty Dozen Chemicals in Cosmetics
by Catherine Zandonella, M.P.H

Beauty is only skin deep, but the products we use to attain it contain chemicals that may penetrate far deeper. The average adult uses nine personal care products a day, with roughly 120 chemicals spread among them, many of which are incompletely tested for toxicity.

Below we've listed 12 chemicals that are best avoided. A single exposure to any of them is unlikely to cause harm, but daily exposure over a lifetime may add up. When shopping, be prepared to spend some time reading labels; even brands that advertise themselves as "natural" or "botanical" have been known to include some of these.

Why is it important to have a healthy skin?

Our skin is like a cloak that covers & protects our internal organs. Most people do not realise how “absorbant” our skin really is ~ being almost like a sponge, that absorbs everything from chemicals in the air, to UV rays from the sun to toxins from our daily skin-care regime.

The absorption of chemicals & toxins could lead to internal cellular damage, which leads to disease, including cancers. This absorption alarmingly, begins right from “baby-in-womb” stage.

A healthy skin is the result of healthy nutrition, ie what you feed your body from the inside and what your skin absorbs from the outside, hence the importance of a healthier intake of food and supplementation (the less processed the better) as well as greener skin care products (chemical & toxin-free) are vital to overall health. To get back to your question, a healthy skin is important to me as it reflects a healthy being, which ultimately promotes youth & longevity ;-)

Glimpse Products

Glimpse Intuitive Skin Care and Mineral Treatment by XANGO

• Glimpse Topical Skin Nutrition System by XanGo, which features three exclusive, xanthone-rich ingredients from the mangosteen (the mangosteen fruit has been revered for both its flavour and promotion of good health). Ingredients are delivered through a proprietary BioActive X3 Complex that is free of harsh chemicals and utilizes green chemistry technology. The skin system, which includes a cleanser, toner, serum and moisturizer, is designed to intuitively self-adjust to address the complex needs of a person’s skin and features formulas that employ a wide range of actives that target skin with powerful nutrients.

• Glimpse Mineral Treatment, which is designed for topical skin nutrition and flawless coverage, featuring a triple-milled blend of pure minerals.

Introduction to Glimpse™ Intuitive Skin Care

Glimpse™ Intuitive Skin Care is creating the category for topical skin nutrition from the mangosteen. XanGo discovered a vital life source deep within the rich, dark pericarp of the mangosteen fruit. Driven by this discovery, ground-breaking science, and performance-driven results, XanGo has created a category ... others will follow.

Glimpse™ formulas do not begin with regular water. Glimpse formulas begin with a unique, one-of-a-kind, mangosteen-infused water. This process entails steeping (like a tea bag in water) mangosteen pericarp powder into USP grade purified water.

This allows for the transfer of mangosteen’s powerful phytonutrients into the first ingredient and base of each formula. Each step in making Glimpse involves the meticulous use of time-honored techniques combined with modern science.

 
 
 
 
 

 

Glimpse Intuitive Skin Care ...

◦ Reinforces the skin's natural defenses

◦ Gives your skin a luminous glow
◦ Provides younger-looking skin
◦ Reveals a clearer, brighter and more radiant complexion
◦ Helps warm skin cells assisting natural collagen production
◦ Relieves the appearance of redness and inflammation
◦ Safeguards the skin under various environmental conditions

With the creation of Glimpse, XanGo is setting a new standard. The proprietary performance ingredients within BioActive X3 Complex™ make it the first results-oriented toxin-free mangosteen skin nutrition system.

 

 

Glimpse™ Intuitive Skin Care is the first skincare line for men and woman with a proprietary BioActive X3 Complex™ that delivers powerful antioxidants to your skin. Harnessing the power of xanthone-rich mangosteen, Glimpse Intuitive Skin Care nourishes and balances the skin to maintain its youthful appearance and optimal health.

Because you are what you absorb, XanGo has meticulously selected only the finest botanical ingredients for our Glimpse products, making them nutrient-rich and toxin-free.

The facts are alarming. Each day, the average woman uses 12 personal care products containing 168 chemical ingredients; the average man uses six products containing 85 chemicals. We are learning more everyday about the harmful effects of the toxins found in most of these products. And yet, the self-regulating personal care industry is slow to act.

The mangosteen holds many secrets, anti-aging is one of them! We've explored the whole mangosteen fruit and derived the finest and most potent xanthone-rich ingredients. The result is a proprietary blend, exclusive to Glimpse Skin Care, known as BioActive X3 Complex™. This patent-pending blend of three exclusive xanthone complexes is at the heart of our meticulously created formulas.

 

 

Through the convergence of time-honored techniques and advanced, customized technology from Japan, BioActive X3 Complex is enhanced with mangosteen-infused water, biofermentation and cold processing to preserve and amplify the potent phytonutrients found in mangosteen. Glimpse Skin Care additionally is intuitive, featuring self-adjusting formulas to address your skin's ever-changing needs. The more you use Glimpse Skin Care, the better it works for you. This scientific care and attention to detail ensures performance-driven skin nutrition coupled with vital safety and rare purity.

With daily use, the BioActive X3 Complex™ featured in all Glimpse products soothes and calms the skin, promoting natural luminosity and protecting the skin against the oxidizing effects of free radicals

 

The unique composition of each Glimpse product is designed to be responsive to your skin’s needs down to the last detail. We invite you to take a closer look at each step in the Glimpse Skin Care System, because every intricate ingredient has its own beneficial role to play in your skin’s wellness.

 
 

Glimpse™ Intuitive Skin Care combines BioActive X3 Complex™ with mangosteen-infused water to provide your skin with the protective phytonutrients contained within the mangosteen in a simple, four-step skin nutrition regimen.

A compelling difference between Glimpse Skin Care and a traditional beauty product is that Glimpse Skin Care is intuitive, with self-adjusting formulations to address your skin's changing demands for beneficial topical nutrition. Our exclusive formulas anticipate and provide your skin with what it needs most: clean, pure, bio-available phytonutrients.

As we age, the natural reparative processes of the skin slow down, leaving our skin looking congested, dull, tired and slack. By saturating the skin with bioavailable antioxidants, amino acids, vitamins, and additional phytonutrients, we can provide dynamic visible results and sustainable long term benefits to the skin.

Through XanGo's exclusive BioActive X3 Complex™ Glimpse Intuitive Skin Care nourishes your skin with performance driven, toxin-free formulations.

It contains 30 times more antioxidant potency than green tea, according to Japanese in-vitro studies.

Additionally, zinc enhances barrier repair and exhibits powerful antioxidant properties.
