Does XANGO Really Have Any Competition?
We are getting a few questions about products trying to copy Xango's success. Who can blame them I suppose. Our unprecedented success has the whole industry in an uproar!
First of all, Xango is the one that works. It’s proven itself for almost 5 years with hundreds of thousands of consumers whose lives have been changed. No one else can say that. We are the ones who created the category and we are the ones who everyone is trying to copy.
When people ask you about this or that product, let them know that Xango is the one that’s helped you and tell them about your own experience with Xango. Results have more impact than hype.
Here are some of the things to look out for when you look at someone trying to copy us.
Whole Fruit Puree.
Knock-off products do not use the whole fruit puree. The only way to know what is really in a product is to read the label. When you see things on the label such as "10 Mg of Alpha Mangosteen" or "unique mangosteen peel extract" or "Mangosteen Fruit & Pericarp Extract", they are using extracts and not the whole fruit.
For instance, Costco has come out with a very low quality form of mangosteen juice. If you read the label you will see that it contains Mangosteen whole fruit extract, "10 mg of Alpha mangosteen". This is just ONE of the over 40 Xanthones contained in the pericarp and found in Xango. In fact, their label does not even mention pericarp. They basically extract this in the form of a dry powder and throw it into a juice blend. The product tastes bad, has a watery texture, and people who have experimented with it have found that it simply does not work.
Another company launched a mangosteen product with a CD of testimonials from Xango users?! They now like to claim their formula has more Xanthones. Just how can you make a product with MORE Xanthones than what is found in the Whole Fruit?
Once again we are back to extracts, detailed below. By extracting one or two Xanthones they can concentrate those Xanthones and claim they have more of that Xanthone. But what has been left behind??? . . . all the rest of the synergistic components that has made Xango’s whole fruit puree a Billion Dollar brand.
PLEASE NOTE: Any mention of any particular Xanthone on a website or product label is a clear indication the product contains an extract.
What is an “Extract”?
Extraction is a process in which alcohol, water, or toxic solvents are used to remove certain elements from a botanical. Some imitators have gone to the extreme of extracting a single Xanthone from the pericarp of the mangosteen in great quantities and thus claiming “More Xanthones”.
Using a single Xanthone or even a couple of different Xanthones in a product is like having a closet full of left shoes. Xango works because of its use of the whole fruit including all 40 plus Xanthones. The Xanthones in Mangosteen are synergistic. This means that the sum is greater than the parts and that it is the relationship between these parts that is the most important. Consequently, extraction may result in an abundance of one element at the expense of other potentially important ones, while changing the natural balance of the Mangosteen.
We mostly talk about Xanthones when describing the mangosteen because that is what makes us unique. However, the mangosteen has many other powerful Phytonutrients found in other fruits and herbs such as: Catechins found in Green Tea and Proanthocyanidins found in grapeseed extract. Whole foods have synergy among its components that cannot be underestimated.
Here’s a Study that verifies all Mangosteen are not created equal.
Dr. Vaughn Johnson did an informal study in his office that shows some of
these other products simply don't work.
Dr Johnson Presentation of 4/3/07
Dr Johnson did a mini clinical trial on the effect of Xango on a marker for systemic inflammation - Highly Sensitive C- Reactive Protein (hs-crp). A level of 1.0 to 3.0 is considered normal. Greater than 3.0 is considered high risk.
Method:
- Take blood samples from 47 patients. Determine (hs-crp) levels.
- Administer 2 Oz per day of Xango juice.
- Continue for 30 days.
- Take blood samples and measure hs-crp.
Results: Of the 38 patients who stayed on the juice, all lowered their hs-crp levels into the normal range. The following table lists typical values.
Sample Initial Final
1 55.0 2.7
2 26.0 1.3
3 12.6 1.8
4 8.4 2.2
5 6.8 1.1
Comments: The above 5 samples were selected for illustration because after the completion of the test, these individuals took different brands of "mangosteen juice" for an additional 30 days. One of those brands was from Costco.
Result: All 5 who took other mangosteen products returned to their initial high risk levels of crp. In fact, sample 2 increased to 28, i.e. two points above the initial value. Dr Johnson then put them all back on Xango and their crp numbers went right back down. All mangosteen juices are not created equal!
The bottom line is that yes, there are imitation mangosteen products on the market. Yes, there will be more to come, all comparing themselves to Xango. All using Xango as a benchmark. There are knock offs of Armani, Versaci, Gucci, and Rolex, each being inferior to the original. Imitators copy excellence. It is the ultimate form of flattery.
Almost half a Billion Dollars in Sales in our 4th year!!
We obviously have the proof and the actual documented benefits that we have witnessed with our own eyes. This leaves others to compare and claim they are better when they have no results, track record, or actual sales volume to back up their claims. Xango is already the number 4 company in US sales for a reason:
(This website shows the 2005 report, when we were in the #5 position. We moved ahead to #4 in 2006.)
Xango is more than a product.
Xango is more than a product. Costco of course has no compensation plan whatsoever and no way for happy customers to refer others and start to get their product for free. And when have you ever had a call from Costco asking you how you are doing with the product and helping you get results.
In addition, it is much easier to sell a growing opportunity than a shrinking one. By comparison, many of our "competitors" such as Natures Sunshine, have had declining revenues in the United States for the last number of years.
Bottom line, Xango absolutely dominates the mangosteen market and always will. Competition can cause a market to grow by advertising a product and in this fashion can be good for business. Would you rather have 100% of a 50 Million $ market or 95% of a Billion $ market?
Here is more information on our manufacturing process. It is common knowledge in the industry that false claims are made about the contents of nutritional supplements. Having a world class company like Wild Flavors ensures the highest quality mangosteen product in the industry.
Wild Flavors
Xango has the world’s foremost manufacture of functional beverages in Wild Flavors who had over 100 research scientists on staff and every batch is checked for uniform Xanthone activity. Who knows what manufacturing standards “the competition” has and where they are really getting their ingredients from and what kind of processing they use to process the fruit and turn it into a powder?
- As the world leader and category creator, XanGo has a product focus that is completely unmatched. Other companies may introduce look-alike products, but they are simply trying to grab a small piece of the market we have created. Their focus is not on the product they produce, but on the desire to cash in on a growing market.
- XanGo, LLC leads the industry in the science and application of xanthones. Other companies simply extract or reconstitute a juice. We back our formulation with solid science, working to unlock and understand the tremendous power of xanthones.
- XanGo is exceptional, innovative, and designed to change the landscape of nutrition forever. This is not a trendy supplement. XanGo represents a permanent addition to mankind’s understanding of health and wellness.
The Process
No one else goes to the lengths we do to ensure quality and consistency. Our process—which is protected by patent—is designed to deliver the purest, freshest, highest-quality product possible. Catch-up products are prone to less-than-attentive processing, resulting in a lower-quality product.
- Every step in the XanGo process is completed with exacting precision. A breakdown at any point will result in less-than-optimal product. And that is simply not acceptable.
- All fruit is harvested at exactly the right time, when xanthone concentration is at its peak. Immediately after harvest, the fruit is individually quick frozen, locking out ice crystals which damage the freshness of the fruit, while locking in the essential qualities of this remarkable gift of nature.
- We accept only organically-grown mangosteen. We make certain our fruit is absolutely pesticide and herbicide free.
- XanGo maintains exclusive relationships with harvesters. This allows us to set an extremely high standard for the way our fruit is grown, harvested, and handled. All fruit that does not meet these standards is rejected. In fact, entire lots of fruit are rejected if these standards are not met.
- We insist on an intricate irrigation system to the trees, assuring that every mangosteen is grown to the perfect size and proper sweetness.
- During processing, the whole fruit is stone-milled down to a specific size—the perfect size for optimal bioavailability.
- Over 100 quality assurance tests are performed from the time the fruit is harvested to the final bottling of the product. Failure at any point results in rejection.
- XanGo has entered into a strategic partnership with WILD Flavors, a billion-dollar giant in the food and beverage industry. This partnership means that the full research and formulation power of WILD—with its hundreds of dedicated scientists—is behind every bottle of XanGo.
- Our processing is completed in ISO9001-certified facilities. This is critical, because it means that our operations are in compliance with the highest standards in processes, safety, quality, and manufacturing. This puts our processing plants in the very small minority of international facilities that ever achieve this elite status.
- Our ongoing research and analysis ensure
soptimal xanthone content in every bottle of XanGo. Process is important. Anyone can make mangosteen juice, but not everyone can make it right.
The Product
- Every step that makes XanGo unique, every element of differentiation listed above, finds its end result in the product. This product will always be our focus and our passion. XanGo will forever be at the very core of what we do, how we do it, and where our energy and resources are spent.
- XanGo is not simply mangosteen juice—it is the whole-fruit puree of the mangosteen. This distinction is important. The greatest concentration of beneficial xanthones is found in the pericarp—not just the pulp—of this extraordinary fruit.
- Each bottle of XanGo has gone through a process which standardizes and maximizes xanthone content. You don’t want to play hit-and-miss with your health.
- Each time you drink XanGo, you get over 40 xanthones, each bringing unique benefits to your body. This product not only delivers all these xanthones, but maximizes their potential effect.
- XanGo is, simply put, the best, most accessible source of powerful xanthones on the planet.
- XanGo is a category creator, first-to-market, and powerful in its benefits. The product is world-friendly, easily registered in international markets, which means we can deliver our single formulation and our singular messageanywhere on the planet.
“I know the value of Garcinia mangostana (the mangosteen) to the people of this world. XanGo is the only form of processed mangosteen that I endorse.”
J. Frederic Templeman
World-recognized Mangosteen Expert
Here’s a quick personal testimony:
If you hear of anyone saying I can get Mangosteen juice at Costco, tell them not to be fooled. Costco carries "Thai Mangosteen" Juice”. Because I’m passionate about Xango, I had to prove its power. I was curious enough to try a one week experiment. I replaced Xango with Thai Mangosteen.
My symptoms flared up and the taste is not at all appealing. There is no comparison to Xango. I will gladly pay a little more for a product that is truly effective and tastes wonderful.
