XanGo is a dietary supplement and touted as the original mangosteen fruit supplement. It falls under the category of health drink, but is much more than that.

Mangosteen fruits are loaded with xanthones, powerful antioxidants known as phytonutrients that help get rid of free radicals that cause damage in the cells of the body. These phytonutrients also help the body maintain a healthy immune system and support cartilage and joint function that is necessary for flexibility. In addition, the pericarp, which is the “wall” of the fruit has been used in folk medicine to treat eczema and promote wound healing in the skin.

But enough about the medicinal uses. Let me tell what I thought about XanGo. In a word or two? Delicious. And, it’s refreshing especially when combined with sparkling water. The juice itself is a beautiful dark purple-red color, the same as the fruit. A supplement that’s good for you and actually tastes great!
