The race is on!I got my first shipment a case of Thai-go yesterday. It is similar to Xango and seems to have more of the actual mangosteen rine in it. It is a little gritty but does't taste bad and is somewhat cheaper by the case than Xango. I immediately drank 6 ozs the first day because I am in the middle of a full blown gout attack. I could actually feel the mangosteen from the Thai-go going to work in my body and the gout is much better today. All of this is interesting. I also notice a feeling of well being but I can't tell If that is really tied to the mangosteen intake. I know that the changes in the gout is definately not a plecbo affect. The Thai-go even has Green tea in it! The formula sure looks better than Xango right off the bat.

When I went off of the Xango cold turkey I experienced a severe depression and the the arthiritis came back and my feet and legs began to swell and the injured area in my back began to pain. I was also taking Shaklee(more about their products later) Starlight's Lifeguard. I was taking several supplements  at the same time and quit them all cold turkey too because I wanted to try to determine if this Thai-go was as good as Xango. Without out the help of the other costly supplements.
I will keep you updated as I get into this case. I called the Thai-go company and they do not want the product sold on EBay either! or any other auction site. We can see how well that policy worked with Xango. When I listed Xango the first time only two people had it listed. My last look there were over 3 pages of Xango going any where from $75.00 to $129.00 a case plus shipping.
The Thai-go cost me $91.00 a case including shipping. I was impressed immediately that the Thai-go was in a more Eco Earth Friendly paper based shipping case. That should make Al Gore happy. I have heard that Costco is selling a bottle of Mangosteen too maybe we will get that horse and have a Three way race!LOLOL Isn't it nice to live in a Free Country!  Xango/Thai-go/Costco Folks tthey are lining up. get ready. I understand that Costco is $17.00 a bottle if you are already using it I would apprecciate hearing from you. I will compare all three eventually.
Check back I will keep you posted. If you want to join in my Thi-go vs Xango experiment let me know.
Update: I have found a new product that has even has more mangosteen than Thai-go and Xango at my local health food  store. this product is called Mango-Xan.In a brochure produced by that company in a test called the ORAC Analysis the Mango.Xan has 2,466,The Thai-go 1,709,and the XanGo 1,599.
The analysus is by Covance Laboratores Inc. 10/07/05 (test #5100417)
The ORAC(Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) tests the scavenging effectiveness and capacity of a products antioxidents. I cannot wait to personally try this 24 fluid oz botttle which is currently on sale at my health food store for 19.00 a bottle. I and readers of this guide would be interested in any information you may have of this product.I will post a photo of the product as soon as I use it!  ( I decided product not really worth a photo op. LOLOLOL)
I found a new site on the internet where Dr Amod Tootla a Michigan MD at the Ford Hospital  in Detroit has recommended a Mangosteen product to over 1000 of his patients with amazing results and positive changes in their health.I cannot list the site because of EBay's policy but you can find it. Just type his name in a search engine.He does not appear to recommend a particular brand of Mangosteen product in the interview.
I hope this does you Mangosteen fans some good. Especially Good Health! This may be the most important  medicine discovery since Aspirin!

Sincerely,
 Woody

Update:
 I have tried the Mango-Xan it certainly does not taste as good as Xango or Thai-go but according to the label it may have more of the mangosteen in it. I only tried one bottle because of the taste factor.It actually has an old taste or vinegar taste to me not a fresh taste like the other two products. I would imagine it might taste better to some folks because we are all different when it comes to taste buds.I am not sure of the physical impact of taking this I did not like the taste enough to give it a trial.

Update:
 Recently my shipment from Costco came Thai Mangosteen a product in a 32 oz bottle produced by Agrolabs, Inc. It is on sale currently for 13.00 a bottle at Costco which is a real deal!I just had to try 2 oz when it arrived. I found it quite tastey somewhat thick with  the largest amount of  fruit pulp and mangosteen rine grit in it.I am not sure how it tests out in comparisons with the other brands. It will be interesting to see if it holds up under personal use and does the same thing the other products do ,mainly Xango and Thai-go.I actually like the taste of both of those products and the companies stand behind them with good test results. I plan to call this new Thai Mangosteen 800 number on Monday to see if they test it as well for content and harmful pesticides, water purity,etc.Their web site and packaging beautiful and interesting but not much factual information or data
just beautiful photos and music.
I will attempt to come back with further reports when I consume this product.

I'M BACK!   Oct 1,2006

Update: This Thai-Mangosteen product seems to do everything the others did for me. It is currently 17.00 for a 32 oz bottle the 13.00 Sale is over. Also check the EBay search engine listings now for excellent deals on Xango the two case multi-level marketing deal is causing excess inventory amounts to build up among sellers and many people are having friends sell their extra cases on EBay at bargin basement prices regardless of the repressive Xango corporate policy.It is always difficult to control a free market economy.

Has anyone had good results with the mangosteen capsuls as compared with the juice? I havn't tried them yet?

I hope this information is helpful to you.

Sincerely,
Woody
