How to Take: People who suffer from high cholesterol can achieve optimal results by taking 1-2 TB of Aloe Vera juice a day ( source). 3)Aloe vera boosts immune function and destroys cancer tumors – Scientific research shows strong immunomodulatory and antitumour properties for aloe vera polysaccharides. That means the gel helps boosts immune system function while destroying cancer tumors. One study published in International Immunopharmacology (1995) showed that aloe vera polysaccharides exhibited potent macrophage-activating activities including producing increased volumes of nitric oxide, which has antitumor potential. How to take: Work with a naturopathic physician to learn how to add Aloe Vera into your treatment plan. 4) Aloe Helps Reduce Inflammation– Aloe Vera contains 12 substances, including B-sisterole, which can help to slow down or inhibit inflammation. How to take: Rub the gel onto any areas of pain. For rhumatoid arthritis, take internally by drinking 2 to 3 oz. of aloe juice once per day, and work up to 3 times per day. 5) Disinfectant, Anti-biotic, Anti-microbial, Germicidal, Anti-bacterial, Anti-septic, Anti-fungal & Anti-viral –Aloe Vera’s active ingredients are sulphur, lupeol, salicylic acid, cinnamic acid, urea nitrogen and phenol which are substances that prevent the growth of disease-causing microorganisms and act as a team to provide antimicrobial activity thus eliminating many internal and external infections, also active against bacteria. It also helps to treat fungal and viral infections. How to take: rub on burns, cuts, bruises, and take internally during times of sickness or just to boost the immune system. How to Harvest and Use Aloe Vera: Step 1:Cut off large pieces of the plant near the stem. I usually cut 5-10 at a time. Step 2:Rinse the cut pieces under water. Step 3:Cut off the top of the shell. Step 4:Grab a spoon and scoop out all the gel. Step 5: pour the gel into a food processoror blenderand process it for a few seconds. Step 6:Freeze in small ice cube traysand use as needed! I leave a little in the fridge, as well. A Few Things I do With My Aloe: Face Mask– I add 2 TB of aloe, 1 TB sugar or salt, and 2 TB of raw milk or coconut milkto a jar and stir. Once the sugar/salt is dissolved, I rub it all over my face and leave it on for up to 10 minutes! Then I grab a hot towel and wipe off. Baby butt soft! I add 1-2 TB to my smoothies. I put them on my kids dry skin. I put them on cuts and burns. I rub it onto my sore muscles after an intense workout. I hope you now believe in the incredible healing properties of the Aloe Vera plant. Remember “fresh is best”, so pick up a plant, and start benefiting from it!
