Aloe Vera has been used for constipation, diabetes, pancreas health, minor burns and wound healing. Aloe Vera has also been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects as well as to stimulate wound healing. Preliminary evidence also suggests an anti-bacterial effect. Aloe applied to the skin causes the skin to absorb moisture three to four times faster than water. A test in 1984 has shown that the application of Aloe gel to the skin accelerates firboblasts. Fibroblasts aid in the manufacture of colligen which is the protein that controls the aging process of the skin and wrinkling. Aloe helps to protect the outer layers of the skin by helping it to reorganize skin cells. A compound - acemannon - found in Aloe Vera also seems to have some remarkable anti-viral properties. Studies have shown not only the nutrition value of ingesting Aloe Vera (in drink form), but also it's potential for providing significant benefits to boost the immune system. Aloe is a bright hope in the battle of many illnesses - and certainly in strengthening the immune system. Oral consumption of Aloe Vera can benefit irritable bowl syndrome, ulcerative colitis, esophagitis, peptic ulcer, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, mouth lesions, sore throat, and lupus. Aloe can also prevent and arrest arthritis, improve wound healing, inhibit pain, block inflammation, restore bone growth, and act as a vehicle for the delivery of nutrients to the body. Aloe has been known to help unblock and keep clean the receptors inside the lining of the intestines.
Dr. B. Frielander, (San Diego, CA) a Nutritionist, noted that patients with chronic colon problems including constipation, hemorrhoids, colitis and Crohn's disease, benefit from drinking Aloe Vera juice as a part of a nutritional program. Aloe also facilitates the absorption into the bloodstream of vitamins and other nutrients. He noted that even their complexions looked better! Aloe Vera has given more optimism to those who seek non-toxic alternatives to drugs. It now has a growing acceptance and increased use in the medical profession. Aloe Vera and other options (energy medicine, chiropractic, herbs, meditation, etc.) are growing in popularity. Aloe Vera can be used externally (on the skin) and internally (drinks). Aloe will not work the same for everybody - Aloe Vera comes originally from South Africa. The long green fleshy leaves of the plant are used.
