XanGo makers claim the drink strengthens the immune system, helps to flush common toxins, improves intestinal health, support cartilage and joint functions and permute a healthy respiratory system. With all this jargon we needed to take a closer look at the wording on XanGo's site.

They claim that research shows that XanGo may promote the above benefits. However when we look under the advertisement on the site we see a statement 'These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.' This information points to a XanGo scam.

While the claims are not necessarily untrue they remain so vague that they fall into the consumer awareness category. For example, I could say that a certain fruit drink may promote higher intelligence functions, then below it I make a disclaimer stating this has, in no way been confirmed by the medical regulation board.

Of course other resellers of XanGo have jumped on the medical band wagon and are posting customer testimonials of how XanGo has helped them with their various medical conditions.

On one site healthsuperstore.com , reviews and testimonials are marketed as a selling point. Customers claim XanGo has helped relieve high blood pressure, aches and pains, and other common ailments.

For their unfounded and unsubstantiated claims in marketing a fruit drink we are placing XanGo on our consumer watch for a possible XanGo scam.

Its really true. I tried this fruit juice and I tell you for $40 dollars you would get the same benefits with V8 as this stuff. Just another scam if you ask me.

MSNBC Reports On XanGo

MLM
According to a recent report from MSNBC, an independent lab test performed for The Associated Press shows that XanGo’s antioxidant strength is actually no better than other readily available fruit juices, despite the fact that it retails for around $40 per bottle.

Yes... Why are all the negative comments coming from Georgia? I don't know much about this drink, but I do find that a rather curious coincidence.

the fact is that these scammers always prey on the dumb and ill informed. If the FDA has not regulated it you can probly bet it fake crap..
