XanGo Review: Founded in 2002 and headquartered in Lehi, Utah, XanGo is a private company that has gained fame for its various health and skin care products. Its most famous product is XanGo juice, a mangosteen based product that serves as a nutritional supplement.
Their juice contains mangosteen and other juices, which serve as a nutritional supplement. Eleviv is an herbal supplement aimed at restoring metabolic balance for adult users. Glimpse Intuitive Skin Care is a line of organic skin care products also produced from mangosteen extracts and other natural ingredients.
The corporation has a board of directors, much of which is made of various founders including Kent Wood, Bryan Davis, Joe Morton and Gordon Morton. Other founders, including Aaron Garrity and Gary Hollister serve as executives within the company.
In 2006, founders Aaron Garrity and Gary Hollister were recognized as finalists for an entrepreneurship award from Ernst and Young. The corporation has also been recognized as one of Utah’s Best Places to Work, as well as various awards for the company’s social responsibility and leadership.
Privately held, this corporation does not publicly disclose financial statements, but it is known that product sales have been steadily growing since the company’s inception and that by late 2008, the company’s cumulative sales exceeded one and a half billion dollars.
Since 2006, XanGo has been the official corporate sponsor of the Major League Soccer’s Real Salt Lake, the professional soccer team based in Salt Lake City, Utah. The corporation has also been one of the top monetary contributors to Utah Senator Orrin Hatch and has made grants to a local arts council.
It has taken steps to partner with local and international nonprofit organizations that benefit children’s health and development, and it has committed seven percent of its profits to various children’s charities.
The corporation’s juice products are sold throughout Europe, Asia, the United States and various countries in Central America and the South Pacific, such as Australia and New Zealand. The U. S. Federal Trade Commission has indicated that the juice is sold by more than seven hundred thousand known distributors worldwide.
The juice itself is based on mangosteen aril and pericarp puree, but also incorporates juices and purees from cranberries, cherries, strawberries and raspberries. Despite attempts and appeals, the corporation was not granted a patent on their juice product from the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
It has been the center of controversy over several claims of more than twenty various health benefits. The corporation was also issued warnings from the U. S. Food and Drug Administration for advertising the product as drug.
Watchdog groups and medical organizations have brought into question XanGo’s claims that their juices serve medical purposes for those suffering from disorders like arthritis or diseases such as cancer.
The company was at the center of trademark litigation when Tahitian Noni International sued the company for stealing its ideas for health supplements that use mangosteen byproducts. Some XanGo executives and founders were originally employees for Tahitian Noni International, and are accused of stealing ideas. The companies eventually settled out of court for an undisclosed amount, but not after a countersuit was filed.
