VEMMA the best resource I've found for XANTHONES
Medical Properties of Xanthones:
Research on Xanthones is ongoing. There are many results people report about health benefits from xanthones that cannot be explained by the science yet. This is likely due to the fact that only about 15% of known xanthones have been studied to any degree.
Some of the known benefits of xanthones based on recent research are:
Anti-Fatigue - Helps boost energy.
Anti-Inflammatory - Helps prevent and reduce inflammation
Anti-Aging
Helps prevent cancer. According to a preliminary study, six xanthones have been found to be capable of killing cancer cells.
Helps lower blood pressure
Helps lower blood sugar. Many people with type II diabetes have reported that it helps them to regulate their blood sugar levels.
Helps prevent infections - Bacteria, Microbes, Viruses, Fungus.
Anti-Diarrheal - In folk medicine, the pericarp of the mangosteen (most potent source of xanthones) has been used for centuries to effectively treat dysentery.
Anti-Parkinson, Anti-Alzheimer. Helps prevent dementia.
Anti-allergenic - Helps with allergies
Eye Care - Helps prevents cataracts and glaucoma
Helps protect the heart and cardiovascular system
Anti-Obesity
A recent study has confirmed that gamma mangostin, a xanthones derivative found in the mangosteen, is a potent COX (Cyclooxgenase) 2 inhibitor. The COX 2 enzyme is a chemical in the body that causes inflammation. This enzyme is commonly found in people suffering from joint pain and arthritis. However, it is also being found with other diseases as well, that are not as obvious, such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, cancer, and Diabetes. In three separate studies, a xanthones derivative of the mangosteen slowed down the body's production of the COX 2 enzyme.

Why Vemma?
We've all heard the news for years about how important it is to get the right amount of antioxidants in order to keep our bodies healthy and ward off disease. Now there's a new classification of antioxidants called xanthones, first discovered in the mangosteen fruit, which are poised to be one of the biggest discoveries of modern science in terms of health benefits. While the concept of antioxidants may seem even more confusing when adding in another aspect, xanthones are fairly easy to understand, given their clear-cut, scientifically-proven benefits.
What are Xanthones?
Technically put, xanthones are a set of chemical compounds that can be synthetically produced, but are more often found and more potent in their natural settings. Xanthones are powerful antioxidants in a family of phytonutrients.
To date, researchers have discovered and classified approximately 200 xanthones, 40 of which are found in the mangosteen fruit. As a matter of fact, xanthones were first discovered when scientists began studying the health benefits of mangosteen based on its traditional indigenous medical uses.
Research into the medicinal properties of xanthones found in the mangosteen began in the 1970s, and gradually picked up pace as scientists began finding more exciting nutritional properties. Between 1996 and 2005, an exponential amount of research has been done in regards to mangosteen and its xanthones, and even more studies are in the works.
Xanthones in Mangosteen
To recap, xanthones are powerful antioxidants, and out of the 200 xanthones known to science, 40 of them are found in mangosteen.
But what do the antioxidant properties of the xanthones in mangosteen do for you? Antioxidants function as a balance for free radicals in the body. Free radicals are potentially harmful, yet oftentimes natural substances in your body that, when left free reign, build up and cause diseases like cancer, heart disease, and more.
The xanthones function to travel through your body, literally mopping up the free radicals on their way, leaving your body cleaner and healthier than before.
Some of the most important xanthones found in mangosteen include:
Alpha-mangostin
Beta-mangostin
Gamma-mangostin
Garcinone
Garcinone A
Garcinone C
Garcinone D
Mangostanol
Gartanin
These, among other xanthones, have been touted by independent researchers to have properties to include antiinflammatory, anticonvulsant, antiallergic, antitumor, and antiplatelet, to name just a few.
Known Benefits of Xanthones
Scientific research has made it abundantly clear that no other fruit compares in its health benefits to mangosteen, due to its xanthones and other nutritional properties.
Helping to fight cancer is just one of the many properties that different xanthones perform. For instance, one study performed in Japan showed that the xanthone alpha-mangostin had apparent properties that suppressed the development of tumors. Another, performed in China, found the xanthone garcinone E to show significant anticancer effects in terms of liver, lung, and gastric cancer cells.
In addition, some xanthones have shown significant antimicrobial effects in terms of fighting MRSA (methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus), which is a bacterial strain known for its tenacious resistance to pharmacologic antibiotics. One scientific study also showed that alpha-mangostin, beta-mangostin, and garcinone B to have pronounced inhibition effects on a strain of tuberculosis.
As if that isn't enough, xanthones have also been scientifically proven to help lower LDL, the bad cholesterol, by protecting the LDL from coming into contact with free radicals, thus leaving it unable to oxidize and attach to arterial walls and cause atherosclerosis.
Taking into account the anticancer, antiinflammatory, antimicrobial, and cholesterol-lowering effects of the xanthones found in mangosteen, here is just a sampling of the other many benefits that science has either researched or is in the process of discovering:
Antiviral
Helps lower blood pressure
Helps fight fatigue
Antidepressant
Prevents stomach ulcers
Aids with weight loss
Antiaging
Combats diarrhea
Pain reducer
Heart protective
Analgesic
Anti-parkinsonian and anti-Alzheimer
Lowers fevers
Builds immunity to disease
Antiallergen
Antifungal
Antiparasitic
Indeed, even now some health practitioners are suggesting drinking mangosteen juice for relief to people who suffer from the following diseases:
Infections
Skin ailments like psoriasis, seborrhea, or eczema
Joint problems and arthritis
Dementia
Anxiety and depression
Cancer
Chronic pain
Chronic fatigue syndrome
Ulcers
Diabetes
The Fruit with Xanthone Power
As time goes by, it's becoming less and less uncanny how traditional and folk medicine seems to have a grasp on the nutritional properties of food better than modern science has in the past. Indeed, it seems in some cases, especially in that of the mangosteen, science is working to catch up.
The mangosteen fruit is believed to have originated in the Moluccas and the Sunda Islands. It's been used for decades upon decades by people from Thailand, the Philippines, and China in folk medicine to treat dysentery, skin disorders like eczema, diarrhea and cystitis, among other ailments.
One of the reasons why mangosteen is only now gaining notoriety and popularity is because, for many years, direct importation of the fruit from other countries has been illegal, based on governmental regulations to help quarantine the Asian fruit fly. Unfortunately, the mangosteen tree doesn't grow well in most or all climates in the United States, so attempts to grow the fruit here have been relatively unsuccessful.
However, as science has begun proving the unsurpassed medical value of the rare mangosteen fruit and its xanthones, juices and preserves are becoming more and more readily available.
In terms of taste, the mangosteen itself is considered one of the most exquisitely delicious fruits nature has to offer. Often called the "Queen of Fruits," the taste of mangosteen is unique, but is often described as sweet and tangy with hints of pear, ripe strawberry, and grape.
After sampling mangosteen, it's easy to see why this fruit is so popular in Thailand due to its taste. And after learning about the benefits of the xanthones found in mangosteen, it's even more clear how nutritionally beneficial this amazing fruit is.

The importance of proper nutrition
America has a huge problem with sickness and disease. Research is finding that many of these diseases we have are linked to poor nutrition. You might think you are healthy because you rarely get sick but what is going on inside your body is a war that you are unaware of.
You see, unless you live on a farm and grow your own heirloom vegetables, raise your own livestock without steroids or vaccines then you have been eating poison for many years. The information that is starting to be released about our food supply is frightening to say the least. Genetically modified vegetables, chickens and cattle given hormones to increase weight gain. The list goes on and on. Most foods we eat today come in a box and are highly processed leaving very little nutrition left for the body. As a result the body starts to break down. Some notice this break down faster then others.
What I am about to offer you is life changing!
You see, in Oct. of 2010 a friend of mine introduced me to a product called Vemma. I was told it is a vitamin and mineral supplement unlike anything on the market. There was clinical studies done to back this product and the company offered a 30 day money back guarantee. What did I have to lose right? So I gave it a try and within a few weeks I noticed a bit more energy. But that is nothing compared to what happened next. When I turned 20 I was diagnosed with psoriasis. Modern medicine has no cure for this disease and besides that modern medicine is proven to only treat symptoms not the cause and create more problems then it helps thus ensuring them return customers and billions of dollars.
About 6 weeks into taking Vemma the psoriasis started to go away. By December the psoriasis had all but disappeared! Today I am 99.9% clear! This is amazing I thought! So I was talking with my wife who suffers from arthritis, hot flashes and restless sleep. She too was noticing some changes. Her arthritis no longer hurt, she no longer suffers from hot flashes and she sleeps great!
With results like this I had to share this discovery with people. I now have friends who have some amazing testimonies, here are but a few:
Me: psoriasis, lowered blood pressure
My wife: arthritis, hot flashes, sleepless nights..no more
My mom: more energy, completely off all medication and feels better then she has in years!
My karate student: no longer has digestion issues
Friend from church: diabetic, off all insulin and has A1C counts of 6 now from 10
Another friend had hyper thyroid and doctors wanted to remove it. Now thyroid is normal and no medication was taken.
Another was allergic to 8 common foods and had IBS, no more IBS and now eats all 8 of those foods.
Friend suffered from depression and anxiety, no longer.
Friends are diabetic and had A1C counts of 10 and 12, now are off insulin and counts are 6 and 7.
Another friends mother has fibromyalgia, after taking Vemma their symptoms, aches and pains are gone!
This list goes on and on. If you are serious about your health you have to give this stuff a try, it is the real deal and I absolutely love it!
There is some pretty good credibility behind this product as well.
Dr. Oz endorses this, they are partnered with Childrens Miracle Network and Presbyterian Childrens Hospital and well as the NBA. Verve is the official energy drink of the Phoenix Suns and Mercury as well as Charlotte Bobcats.

Here is a small list of testimonies from people.
http://vmastories.com
Vemma is a supplement and therefor not regulated by the FDA. This is a good thing because the FDA are the same ones who are allowing the pharmaceutical and food companies to poison us. Vemma has higher standards then the FDA and submits themselves to outside testing. Vemma is also unable to make any claims about their product because the FDA likes control. The people who use this product are the ones making the claims and it is based on their own personal experience.
