The Mangosteen fruit is packed with 'xanthones'. The xanthones alpha-mangosteen and gamma-mangostin are potent anti-oxident agents and may be beneficial in helping to control asthma.
These same xanthones from the mangosteen are powerfull anti-inflammatoryagents. Scientists in Japan demonstrated that gamma-mangostin prevents prostaglandin release ( an inflammation stimulator ). Prosaglandins are also partially responsible for the pain and swelling associated with most inflammation. If the swelling of lung tissues in an asthma attack can be inhibited or hindered, then the airways will remain open.
Xanthones, as a family of biochemicals, also possess anti-viral properties, Thus, the mangosteen appears to be the ideal botanical intervention for children with mild to moderate asthma since it possesses anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and anti-allergy qualities.
I hope this answers your question.
