Top Ten Reasons To Drink Aloe Vera

1) Fantastic All Round Tonic

Forever Living Aloe Vera drinks contain 19 of the 20 amino acids required by our body and 7 of the 8 essential amino acids that cannot be made by our bodies. This means that the body can function at 100% - which means YOU get the “feel good” feeling.

2) Assists in Healthy Digestion

Aloe Vera works on the skin and our skin travels all the way through our digestive system. A healthy digestive tract ensures that nutrients from the food we eat are absorbed into the bloodstream. There is clear clinical evidence that by drinking Aloe Vera Gel, the bowel is able to absorb these nutrients more efficiently.

3) Effect on the Skin - Externally and Internally

When skin cells are first produced deep in the epidermis, they are quite large and very much alive, but by the time they reach the surface (about 21-28 days later, in normal skin), they are just flakes of keratin which eventually just fall off. Aloe Vera Gel provides the essential nutrition to feed the base cells so that they remain healthy and able to perform their functions - this means that your skin looks and feels much healthier.

4) Increases Fibroblasts - Essential for Collagen and Elastin

Fibroblasts are specialised cells found in the skin whose job is to produce fibre such as collagen and elastin. These fibres give the skin its structure and of course make it look plumper with elasticity, which as we all know gives your skin a more youthful look.

5) Anti-viral Action

Within the Aloe Vera leaf surrounding the inner gel there is a long chain sugar that has the capability of being able to help us defend against attacks from many common viruses. Regular intake of the Gel can support the immune system and could even help balance an over-active or under-active immune system.

6) Effect on the Gut and Gut Flora

Aloe Vera Gel has a wonderfully beneficial action on bowel function which results in smooth and efficient transit of contents, often eradicating inconvenient spasmodic or colicky type pain. Many of my own personal customers report benefits in the symptoms of their IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) from regular intake. Aloe Vera Gel is also a natural balance of the “friendly” and “not so friendly” bacteria and yeast in the gut. If a person were to suffer with too much yeast in the gut (such as Candida), regular ingestion of the Gel would tend to reduce this overgrowth and any other unfriendly bacteria that can accumulate in certain conditions. Many of our Aloe Vera customers experience benefits from symptoms of reflux and heartburn.

7) Natural Anti-inflammatory and Painkilling Effect

Among the substances that have been identified in Aloe Vera are several that are naturally anti-inflammatory and painkilling. People who take it regularly often find that inflammatory conditions are greatly benefited.

8) A Useful Source of Vitamins and Minerals

Aloe Vera Gel contains a huge source of vitamins -Vitamins A, B group, C, E and folic acid are all present, many of which cannot be stored by the body so we need to top them up daily from the food that we eat. Some of the minerals include calcium, sodium, potassium, iron, chromium, magnesium, manganese, copper and zinc. This is because the plant tends to grow in areas where soils are rich in these minerals. What an easy way to get all these vitamins and minerals just by taking a daily amount of Aloe Vera Gel each morning.

9) Natural De-tox and Weight Balance

Our diets and lifestyle mean that we are continually bombarding our body with unwanted toxins and substances that can cause lethargy and exhaustion and in some cases weight gain. Aloe Vera Gel has natural de-toxing properties and taken regularly may provide a greater feeling of well being allowing energy levels to increase.

10) Aloe Vera - The Burns Plant

Aloe vera has long been recognized throughout the world as the “burns plant”, the “healing plant” and even the “miracle plant” and has been proven to increase the skin’s healing time. By applying soothing Aloe Vera Gel onto minor burns, cuts, bites, scrapes and many skin irritants brings remarkable relief to damaged skin with the added benefit of minimal scarring.
