Testamonials on Arthritis using Xango

8/25/2005 -- Nanette from Nevada
I have 5 cervical discs out, 3 of which are bone on bone C5-C7, muscle spasms across my neck-line, shoulder to shoulder; 2 lower lumber, L5 & L6, which have degeneration and osteoarthritis. Next carpool tunnel in both wrists, tendentious in my right wrist and right elbow; due to cashiering for 20yrs, and waitressing for 7yrs. In October of 04' I had 2 complete tears, through & through on my left rotator cuff, which had to be put back together with fish wire. I broke my right ankle 3yrs ago, and had no surgery; they just casted it. Now I just found out I have total loss of cartilage on both sides of my left knee with a lot of arthritis all over the knee cap. All in all, I have osteoarthritis throughout my body in alls theses places. I was taking 4000mg. of Lora Tabs a day, 350mgs. of Soma 4x a day, 800 Ibuprofen 4x a day, 10mg of valium at night to sleep, because my arms and hands would go numb when I went to bed. I was a walking zombie half the day!! After 2 to 2&1/2 ounces of mangosteen juice a day, within 2 weeks I was off half my meds.

I have osteoarthritis in my right knee and am limited in my ability to walk. Whenever I sit down for any length of time, I have a difficult time standing up as my knee "locks" and I have to rise slowly until it unlocks and I have to walk slowly at first. It has been like this for three years. After one week on the Mangosteen juice (5 oz. daily) I suddenly realized I was standing up and walking normally. I had taken Celebrex ever since my knee scope almost three years ago. I take it once /day, but I’m going to see how I do without it for a few days. I have also been able to discontinue my antibiotic for my skin, another plus.

I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis 10 years ago. Some days I could hardly get out of bed and walk because of the swelling and pain. Just trying to do laundry would take me all day. After trying mangosteen juice I noticed my pain was completely gone in 3 months and my energy went through the roof. I have been completely off all my medication since October 2004. It has totally changed my life. I also had high cholesterol and was on Lipitor. I stopped my Lipitor in January and had my blood tests 3 months later. My cholesterol went from 240 down to 150! My doctor could not believe the change in me.

About six months ago my husband became ill. His whole body and joints were racked with pain. Some mornings his hands were so swollen that they were useless until he massaged them for hours. He had no energy or appetite and he was drastically losing weight. The doctors were doing blood tests, lung x-rays and prostate exams. They ruled out cancer, but they could not find what was wrong. They said that it was possibly rheumatoid arthritis. They prescribed an anti inflammatory drug called NAPROXEN. That relieved a lot of the swelling and pain. After a several months the situation was getting worse instead of better. The medication was affecting his stomach so he was prescribed an over the counter drug called Zantax. He, also started taking some well known dry vitamins as well as a liquid vitamin. The doctors decided to do a test that would require that he be off of all drugs (except for over the counter pain relievers) for seven days. My husband was in sheer agony! My friend had spoken about [Mangosteen Juice] several times previous. We were skeptical, but we decided that it was worth a try. So she provided us with a bottle of [Mangosteen Juice], and after the test was finished he immediately began taking 2 ounces in the morning and two ounces at night. About a week later he had his color back! He had a lot more energy, some of his appetite and he was able to cut back to one Naproxen a day! He was just about out of the [Mangosteen Juice]! But, he still had the dry vitamins as well as the liquid vitamins. So we didn't get another bottle. It wasn't very many days after he finished the [Mangosteen Juice] before the pain and swelling were back. He was lacking energy and he had to start taking the full dose of Naproxen and Zantec AGAIN! Needless to say we hurried to get more [Mangosteen Juice]!

My husband had rotator cuff surgery on the 2nd of June. He has been taking [mangosteen juice] since Feb. for his rheumatoid arthritis, and after the surgery, the surgeon commented that based on the damage he found, he was amazed there was minimal inflammation, and my husband didn't have the pain that he expected. I gave my husband 6 oz. of [Mangosteen juice] once he was out of recovery, and once we were home, I gave him another megadose. He had his 10 day follow up last Friday, and the doctor was amazed again because the entry wounds were completely healed, and my husband's range of motion was much better than he expected. His diagnosis of physical therapy, while normally would be 3-4 months, was changed to 5 weeks.

I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis 10 years ago. During the 10 years before I discovered mangosteen juice in August 2004 I was unable to lead a normal life. Some days I could hardly get out of bed and walk because of the swelling and pain. Just trying to do laundry would take me all day. After trying mangosteen juice I noticed my pain was completely gone in 3 months and my energy went through the roof. I have been completely off all my medication since October 2004. Now it is 1 year later and I am feeling great. I would not be without my mangosteen juice. It has totally changed my life. I also had high cholesterol and was on Lipitor. I stopped my Lipitor in January and had my blood tests 3 months later. My cholesterol went from 240 down to 150! My doctor could not believe the change in me. My husband has degenerative arthritis and has been on mangosteen juice for 4 months now. He has not used any kind of pain reliever since starting mangosteen juice. He is feeling better than he has in years. He rode his motorcycle from St. George, UT to Phoenix, AZ without pain. He is so thankful to mangosteen juice. In summary, we would not go a day without our mangosteen juice. A big THANK YOU to Dorothy Johnson for telling us about mangosteen juice.

I've been using this product for about 3 months. Within a couple of days I felt a tremendous increase in energy and well being. My constant allergy symptoms seemed to be eliminated. Going into spring now, they have acted up a bit, but have been 97% improved. I found within a week my muscles and joints didn't ache or hurt even after a very busy and strenuous day. I used to always have a 'down day or two' to recover from strenuous activities, usually involving a tension headache from sore and stiff shoulder and neck muscles. Not any more! The best thing, which really came as a surprise to me, was that my low back and sacral area can now be massaged with only mild discomfort. After a couple of car accidents steaming back 25-30 years that area has been constantly inflamed and when touched caused me to scream in pain (just ask my husband who often tried to massage my tight, sore and painful muscles). Now when he gives me a massage, I don't dread it. In fact he has commented that he could never before massage as deeply without causing me pain. I knew it had anti-inflammatory properties but NOTHING ELSE had been so effective in such as short time. My husband has found it lifted his spirits a lot and given him that boost of energy he needs after a long day at work. My mother is 81 and has rheumatoid arthritis in her neck and shoulders. She injured her shoulder and arm in a fall in February, She has been on mangosteen juice for 2 months and with recent adjustments by our chiropractor her adjustments have been so much easier and cause he little pain. He, as my primary health care provider, is also a believer as he has seen it's many benefits in his practice. I am so grateful that such a healthful product is now available for any and all to use. Thank you for bringing it to us.

My story probably starts the same as many others. A friend gave me some mangosteen juice. I took it until it was gone, and I truly thought nothing had changed, nothing had happened. Then over the next few days, all my rheumatism, lymphedema and fibromyalgia aches and pains came back with a vengeance. Since the changes had been so gradual I hadn't noticed that my considerable discomfort had almost completely disappeared! Then I remembered, too, that I had done some hand sewing just before my bottle had run out, threading the needle and making the quick little knot on the very end of the thread, as easily as I had years ago, before my knuckles became frozen with rheumatoid arthritis. As all the aching returned, I spent several sleepless nights and had to once again rely on painkillers to get to sleep. For almost a week before I ran out of juice, I had slept like a baby, without needing any medication at all. Needless to say, I called my friend right away.

In summer of 2000, I fell in the drive-way, very hard, landing on my hands and knees. X-rays were taken, and nothing was broken, but as the months passed to approximately one year, I started having serious pain throughout my entire body. After trying many natural products, along with massage, reflexology, acupressure, scalp massage, etc. it was suggested that I have a blood test. It was discovered that I had rheumatoid Arthritis. I took over the counter pain meds for about one year with no success, and the pain kept increasing. Finally, in late November, 2003 I saw a Rheumatologist/Osteopath specialist. She told me that My RA was so severe that it had to be treated as though it was Cancer. She put me on a protein injection of 25mg. Enbrel twice weekly. At this time, I was walking with a walker, having to use a wheel chair, and a cane. The inflammation in my body continued to cause excruciating pain. After ten months or so, I felt about 40% better, but still could not dress myself, or do any housework whatsoever. In May of this year a friend shared a newspaper article on the mangosteen fruit/juice. I began drinking 2 oz. three times daily for the first two weeks, the third week cut back to 2 oz. twice a day, the fourth week cut back to 1 oz. three times a day, and stayed at that amount. After three weeks I no longer had to use the cane, and after five weeks, I am able to walk six blocks.
