The whole mangosteen fruit has been shown to contain powerful antioxidants—compounds that inhibit oxidation or reactions promoted by oxygen and peroxides. Antioxidants are highly regarded for their ability to protect the body from the deteriorating effects of free radicals.
Free Radicals
Omni-present in our food, air and environment, free radicals storm our bodies every day. It’s a simple fact. Free radicals (compounds that seek an electron in order to become atomically balanced) attack our cells, stealing electrons from any substance with which it comes in contact. By removing electrons from healthy compounds, free radicals inflict damage—often known as oxidation—which is irreversible.
Antioxidants Can Help
The good news—antioxidants, like the ones abundant in every mangosteen, preempt free-radical damage by donating the needed electron and balancing the substance, rendering the free radical harmless.
