Aloe Vera & its Benefits

Out of the 400 species of the Aloe family, Aloe Vera (meaning True Aloe) has been used for thousands of years and is still present in varieties of medicines today.

It is used predominantly as an herbal remedy for the skin, digestion, the reproductive system and detox. A gel or pulp can be extracted from the plants for many benefits, both externally and internally.

It is most commonly used to treat skin conditions by soothing the skin and easing pain and inflammation. It can even speed up the healing process of burns, eczema and other conditions.

The plant’s gel can be rubbed to reduce redness after a couple of days. Rubbing the leaf over cuts in the skin can prevent infection and speed up the healing process by acting like a bandage.

Because of its healing and moisturising benefits to the skin, it has been adopted by cosmetic companies and added in many products.

The juice of Aloe Vera can be extracted by cutting the leaf, collecting the juice and then evaporating it. The juice has many benefits when drunk. This is partially due to the fact that it contains twelve vitamins (including A, B1, B6, B12, C and E), nineteen amino acids and over 20 minerals, which most of these are essential to the body.

In Ayurveda, the Indian health practice, Aloe Vera is known as Kumari (‘the princess’) because of its positive effect on the menstrual cycle and female reproductive system.

It is also known for its ability to clean the liver and protect the digestive system by reducing intestinal inflammation.
Overall, Aloe Vera can be used for cosmetics and healing the skin, or when consumed, as a potent cleansing and rejuvenating tonic that is very nutrient rich and beneficial to the body.

People who benefit from Aloe Vera



Many studies show that Aloe Vera has multple benefits, particularly: ·
Supporting gastrointestinal health · Maintaining a balanced immune system ·
Promoting healthy skin · Helping the detoxification processes of the body ·

Maintaining optimum health Supplement your Health According to the HSIS
(health Suppements Information Service) there are certain groups of people
that may benefit from supplementation:



Athletes: With a rigorous exercise routine it may be useful to
increase he intake of antioxidants such as Vitamin A (beta carotene), Vitamins
C, E and Bioflavinoids as there can be an increased production of free
radicals in the body. Antioxidants neutralise potentially damaging free
radicals which can lead to ongoing wear and tear. Athletes also need to
consume adequate minerals, B vitamins and aessential fatty acids for enhanced
energy and performance.



Convalescents: Convalescents are less likely to be eating a
balanced diet and since they may also need extra help to aid recovery,
supplementation can be beneficial. The average number of days illness in long
term patienst was shown to be reduced by 50% in a year when given a
multivitamin supplement.



Elderly: The over 65's are less efficient at absorbing esential
vitamins and minerals which may result in lowered immunity. Less food
generally may be eaten and surveys indicate that the majority of elderly
people are not reaching the reference intakes let alone 'optimal' levels of
many micro nutrients.



Smokers: Smoking can damage your health and may affect
circulation, skin and the ageing process. Each cigarette smoked depletes some
Vitamin C, an important antioxidant nutrient. Studies indicate that smokers
require double the amount of Vitamin c than non-smokers .



Menopausal Women: The change of life is a gradual process
allowing the body to get used to changes and adapt accordingly. All women need
to be as healthy as possible and to aim for optimum nutrition in order to
manage this transition with ease. Symptoms can vary and supplements may be
higly beeficial at this time.



Vegetarians & vegans: Vegetarian and Vegan diets can benefit
from supplementation with Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Iron and Zinc. Children:
Children can have fussy eating periods. In recent years we haev seen a
dramatic decline in the quality of their diets with high sugar and high fat
consumption leading to depleted nutrients that are essential to health,
resulting in ohysical and emotional symptoms.



Women: Many female health problems may be triggered by stress,
hormone imbalances or nutritiona deficiencies. By taking steps towards optimum
nutrition, a woman's health can be supported throughout the varios stages of
life Correct diet is essential and using additional nutrients such as Calcium,
Vitamin D and other menerals may also be be beneficial in maintaing bone health



People with busy & stressful lives:Busy lives can lead to
skipped meals and so it may be difficult to eat the reommended five daily
protions of fruit and vegatables and to maintain immunity, good digestion, a
health weight and energy levels. A multivitamin and mineral regime can help
ensure that essential nutrients are provided at these times. Our nutritional
drinks can also provide a wealth of nutrients.



Animals: animals are of course part of the family and they too
can experience the power of Aloe Vera. Aloe Veterinary formula is Forever
Living products' dedicated animal product but there are a whole host of other
items from our comprehensive range that are also suitable.
