Greenherb's Mangosteen Extract captures the essence of a tropical superfruit celebrated for centuries in Southeast Asian traditional medicine. Modern science has validated its benefits, focusing on the powerful xanthones concentrated in the fruit's purple rind (pericarp). Our extract transforms this potent raw material into a standardized, reliable ingredient for modern health products. It is the ideal choice for sophisticated brands in the antioxidant, joint comfort, immune support, and beauty-from-within categories, offering a multifunctional, science-backed botanical with strong consumer recognition.
Botanical Source: Garcinia mangostana L. (Mangosteen)
Used Part: Fruit Pericarp (Rind) and/or Whole Fruit
Active Components: Standardized for Xanthones, specifically Alpha-Mangostin.
Standardization: Typically available as 10%, 20%, or 40% Xanthones.
Appearance: Fine, brown to dark purple powder.
Solubility: Soluble in water (for water-extracted versions); xanthones are also soluble in alcohol and glycols.
Key Xanthone: Alpha-Mangostin is the primary and most studied bioactive compound.
Our specialized process is designed to maximize the extraction and preservation of the sensitive xanthone compounds:
Fruit Sourcing & Preparation: Sourcing of ripe mangosteens. The fruit is washed, and the nutrient-rich purple pericarp (rind) is carefully separated from the white pulp.
Drying & Size Reduction: The pericarp is gently dried at low temperatures to preserve actives and then milled into a coarse powder to increase surface area.
Selective Extraction: Utilizes a combination of water and food-grade alcohol or supercritical CO2 extraction to efficiently solubilize the broad spectrum of xanthones and polyphenols.
Concentration & Purification: The crude extract is filtered and concentrated under vacuum. Further purification steps may be employed to remove sugars, fibers, and other non-active materials, enriching the xanthone concentration.
Standardization: The concentrated extract is analytically tested and blended to achieve a precise, guaranteed xanthone content (e.g., 20% total xanthones).
Gentle Drying: The standardized liquid is spray-dried or freeze-dried into a fine powder using low-heat methods to prevent degradation of the bioactive xanthones.
Comprehensive Analysis: Each batch is verified via HPLC for xanthone profile (alpha-mangostin content), potency, and safety.
Mangosteen Extract is incorporated into formulations for its wide-ranging, scientifically-supported properties:
Potent Cellular Antioxidant Defense: Neutralizes a wide range of free radicals, helping to protect cells and tissues from oxidative damage associated with aging and stress.
Supports Healthy Inflammatory Balance: Helps modulate key pathways in the body's inflammatory response, supporting joint comfort and overall systemic wellness.
Immune Function Support: Enhances the activity of certain immune cells and provides antioxidant protection to the immune system.
Skin Health & Anti-Aging: Protects skin from environmental stressors, soothes irritation, and may support collagen integrity, promoting skin elasticity and a radiant appearance.
Cardiometabolic Health: May support healthy blood lipid profiles, vascular function, and blood sugar metabolism within normal ranges.
