Interestingly, Mangosteen is currently Quackwatch’s ‘Herb of the Month’. It’s listed under ‘Garcinia’ (its scientific name being ‘Garcinia mangostana’).
Apparently there’s insufficient reliable information available about the effectiveness of it.

Kevin Trudeau mentioned noni, gogi, mangosteen, aloe vera and acai berry juices in his book. I've seen them at the health food store but I haven't tried any of them. I have tried some of the other organic juices like black cherry, pineapple and carrot juice. Somebody recommended mixing a small amount of the black cherry juice with a can of Cascade frozen grape fruit juice concentrate and add water in a quart size bottle or jug. It's very good and it's also economical when it's mixed this way.
