Mangosteen juice is very suitable for both pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, as its composition is impeccable – it is 100% natural mangosteen juice, without added preservatives, sugars, or other additives.

Mangosteen qualifies as functional food for its effects in the bodies of pregnant women, which means it is consumed not only for its pleasant taste but also as food without known toxic effects.

The functioning of the immune system changes significantly during pregnancy. In the period of fertilization and the first weeks of pregnancy, the immune system of a pregnant woman is considerably weakened, which is a very important adaptation of the body. As pregnancy progresses, the immune system begins to work more intensively to protect both the mother and the fetus. But because of the intensity in the functioning of the immune system, a pregnant woman finds every cold much harder to bear than before pregnancy. Therefore, it is highly recommended that a pregnant woman supports her body with a sufficient intake of antioxidants. This can be done, in addition to proper nutrition, by consuming mangosteen juice, which contains more than 45 antioxidant xanthones.

A sufficient intake of antioxidants during pregnancy positively affects the course of pregnancy and reduces the risk of complications. One of the most undesirable effects of oxidative stress is the development of preeclampsia – a condition in which the pregnant woman has high blood pressure and problems with the functioning of some organs, such as the liver and kidneys. Since it is a serious health condition with severe consequences, the best measure is preventive care. A low intake of antioxidants during pregnancy is also associated with the health condition of the child and complications such as: premature birth and low birth weight. It does not only affect physical health but also mental health. High presence of oxidative stress is associated with the development of pregnancy and postpartum depression. As mentioned at the beginning, antioxidants play a very important role in the functioning of the immune system.
