Mangosteen Effects on Inflammatory Markers in Atrial Fibrillation Trial (MRI-AF)
This study is being done to see if the addition of mangosteen juice to standard medical care will reduce the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence following direct current (DC) cardioversion. The study will also look at the effects the mangosteen juice may have on biomarkers of inflammation and endothelial cell dysfunction (the tissue lining the arteries does not function properly).
