Kim Hill: X is for . . . xanthones
Xanthones are known as super-antioxidants. Antioxidants are essential for mopping up free radicals which could otherwise cause damage to the cells in your body and are the root cause of premature ageing and disease.
Xanthones are known as super-antioxidants. Antioxidants are essential for mopping up free radicals which could otherwise cause damage to the cells in your body and are the root cause of premature ageing and disease. An analogy might be that human beings can 'rust' and antioxidants slow down that process dramatically.
Xanthones are a particular type of antioxidant found in mangostene, which is a fruit that has exceptional nutrient and antioxidant qualities.
Mangostene is most often found in a bottled juice blend and there are plenty of them available on the market, although some are more effective than others. One that has received a lot of positive press and testimonials is Zambroza.
The nutritional highlights:
Prevention of high cholesterol
Antibacterial effects against antibiotic resistant bacteria
Antifungal activities against human fungal pathogens
Inhibition of the COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes that mediate allergies and inflammation
