Innovative dried aloe vera gel product now available from Good Cause Wellness

Remember: The aloe vera plant uses the gel as a water storage matrix. That's its job! And it does it well. A tiny amount of powder makes a whole lot of gel. So once you consider the concentration of this product, it's really not as expensive as it first seems based on the physical size. Of course, growing your own is free. And I always recommend growing and harvesting your own herbs any time you can. Fresh mint is better than dried mint. Fresh peaches are far more delicious than canned peaches, and fresh aloe vera is superior to dried aloe, even low-temperature dried aloe.
This will coat your gums with aloe vera gel, inhibiting the growth of damaging bacteria and providing healing nutrients to delicate gum tissues. (It's one of the little-known dental health secrets that should be common knowledge, but isn't.) I'm fairly certain that the customer response to this product will be strong, which means GCW will probably be temporarily wiped out of inventory after this article gets published, but Friedman will no doubt replenish his inventory and have more aloe available within a few weeks.

Aloe Vera. aloe vera is a cactus, and the gelatinous substance inside the leaf is known to have many beneficial properties. It's not surprising that some research shows some effects for the herpes virus, and mucosal epithelial tissue appears to be a good site for the medicinal effects of aloe. In vitro data suggests that chemical constituents of aloe vera inactivate HSV-2 both alone and syner-gistically with acyclovir.33-34 Human clinical trials on men support its use topically as a 0.5 percent Aloe Vera 0.

The aloe vera miracle: A natural medicine for cancer, cholesterol, diabetes, inflammation, IBS, and other health conditions

Soon, a pure aloe vera gel product (with no added flavors) will likely be made available at Good Cause Wellness (www.GoodCauseWellness.com) . You can simply mix some powder with purified water to make your own gel, then dip fruits and vegetables in the gel yourself. Apples, cucumbers, zucchini, tomatoes, peaches, potatoes, grapes and many other food items can be preserved in this way. And when you're done dipping produce in the gel, you can either drink the gel in a smoothie or put it on your skin as a skin rejuvenation treatment.
Consuming aloe vera internally will also help heal radiation burns. Of course, it's smarter to avoid radiation in the first place, since the procedure actually causes cancer just like mammograms do. A complete discussion of the fraud in modern cancer treatments would require another article entirely, but the short version is that the cancer industry has no interest whatsoever in actually curing or preventing cancer and, instead, generates windfall profits through ongoing cancer treatments that only harm or kill patients.
The abstract states: Radiomodifying effects of the leaf extract of aloe vera were observed on the testes of Swiss albino mice at 50 and 100 mg/kg dose levels. This extract was non-toxic when injected up to 800 mg/kg, and significant enhancement in survival time of the irradiated group was observed. In addition, treatment reduced radiation-induced damage to germ cells and loss in body weight. Got that?
Eating aloe vera is like adding an all-natural non-stick additive to your blood flow. It stops blood cells from clumping together, which is part of what causes a stroke. Dark-field microscopy is a technique for viewing live human blood vessels. As with any truly useful technology for preventing disease without drugs and surgery, it's been censored and oppressed by the medical establishment, but what's interesting about dark-field microscopy is that it shows the form and structure of your blood cells. You can actually see how your blood cells are shaped and whether they clump together.
In a single plant, aloe vera offers potent, natural medicine that: Halts the growth of cancer tumors. Lowers high cholesterol. Repairs "sludge blood" and reverses "sticky blood". Boosts the oxygenation of your blood. Eases inflammation and soothes arthritis pain. Protects the body from oxidative stress. Prevents kidney stones and protects the body from oxalates in coffee and tea. Alkalizes the body, helping to balance overly acidic dietary habits. Cures ulcers, IBS, Crohn's disease and other digestive disorders.
Or if your daugher ripped a gash in her leg on a swing set accident, she's probably still going to need stiches, but before you get to the emergency room, aloe vera gel can protect the wound and set the stage for accelerated healing. Aloe is so useful, in fact, that I take a leaf with me every time I go hiking. It's my portable first aid kit, and when you have aloe, you hardly need anything else. It treats cuts, scrapes, burns, bites, stings, punctures, sprains, sunburns and even bruises. And as a bonus, if you're dying of thirst, you can eat the gel for its water content.

In my view, there's no need to certify it as organic because I'm quite familiar with the process of growing aloe vera (I grow it myself), and believe me, you don't need to spray it with anything at all. (Even the local Javelina don't eat aloe, and they're hungry little monsters who will eat practically anything. Once I tossed the rind of a canteloupe in my back yard, and a group of javelina came along and ate the whole thing. They also love carrots, by the way, and will destroy any sort of vegetable garden you try to plant in the desert.

Raw juice from the aloe vera leaf has been found to contain over 200 nutrients and biologically active ingredients, among them vitamins, minerals, trace minerals, enzymes, and eighteen amino acids. It is a good alkalizer. When purchasing aloe vera juice, one should be aware of the different qualities sold in stores. Cheaper products are watered down, improperly stabilized, or refined to the point of leaving only ten to fifteen percent of the actual beneficial aloe vera extract. Products are made from various parts of the plant. There are three main products.

Aloe vera may hold promise in treating cardiovascular disease

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
But the question is how does aloe vera actually do this? This is just an educated guess on my part, but it seems to me that aloe vera accomplishes this by increasing the viscosity of human blood. In order words, a normal person walking around day to day with normal blood of average health has a certain amount of stickiness in their red blood cells. The blood cells tend to stick together. This is not necessarily clotting, but it's just blood stickiness. In fact, you can see it under a microscope if you look at the blood of an unhealthy person versus a healthy person.

For topical application we recommend using pure (100 percent) aloe vera gel. The wound healing effects of aloe vera are well known. aloe vera contains a number of compounds necessary for wound healing, including vitamin C, vitamin E, and zinc. aloe vera has been shown to stimulate many factors important to wound repair. Apply it to affected areas (not open wounds) rwo to three times daily. Foot Ulcers Lack of blood supply, poor wound healing, and peripheral neuropathy are the key factors in the development of diabetic foot ulcers.

In other words, if a patient is losing a tremendous amount of blood, such as a soldier who is wounded on the battlefield, and perhaps they've lost several pints of blood and their blood stores are getting dangerously low, they can be injected with a very small amount of extract taken from the aloe vera plant. This extract will then quickly diffuse through the bloodstream and multiply the effectiveness of the blood remaining in that person's system. Effectively, this aloe vera extract makes that blood that's left in the body function as if it were a full supply of blood.

Antibacterial silver products finally begin to emerge after years of FDA oppression

You can even use aloe vera in wounds, and I'm talking about huge, gaping wounds. If someone has their leg sliced open, you can actually stuff that wound with aloe vera gel, put some more aloe vera on top of the wound, spray it all with silver, wrap it all in a huge bandage and then go off to the emergency room for some stitches, surgery, or whatever needs to be done. Doing so will protect the wound. The aloe vera itself is not only antibacterial; it also accelerates the healing process.

Sooth-A-Caine aloe vera Spray Gel with Lidocaine ($5.99 for 8 ounces) contains the topical anesthetic lidocaine as the active ingredient, which is helpful. What's not helpful is the amount of alcohol in this product and the inclusion of irritating menthol. © Ultra Mist Aloe After Sun Continuous Spray Gel ($6.99for 8 ounces) cools skin with a fine mist of alcohol, but the overall effect is more irritating than soothing, and truly beneficial ingredients are a foreign concept for this poorly formulated product.

It is more convenient than having to buy bottled aloe vera juice. It is completely free of additives. Caution: With regular drinking of aloe vera, diabetics may improve the ability of the pancreas to produce more of its own insulin. Since too much insulin is dangerous, diabetics should consult their physician to monitor their need for extra insulin. Many diabetics report a reduction in the amount of insulin required. Also if you experience diarrhea or intestinal cramping for more than two to three days, discontinue. This is due to irritants the aloe plant contains.
