Dear Edu,
Let me discredit you some on your claim about Aloe Vera.
The following is printed on the back of a visiting card handed over to me
by a friend.
"ALOE VERA - Known to mandind since ages for its medicinal properties.
Widely used by Alexander the Great to cure wounded soldiers, Cleopatra, to
beautify her skin, Mahatma Gandhi to endure fasts. This magical plant
detoxifies, cleanses, nourishes & balances the body, builds up body immune
system to eliminate most illnesses. It is a natural food suppliment power
house. Drink/eat aloe vera to enjoy the benevolence of good health. ! You
will be happy you did !"
And this is the testimony of a person I know very well
Severe chest pain led to angiography to detect absolute clogging of the
blood vessels deep in the heart negating the by-pass surgery or angioplasty.
The person actually thanked his stars for not having to go thro' the rituals
of heart by-pass et al, goes home, stops all medications, goes on a no meat,
no oils diet, two swallowable whole garlic pods after dinner every day, one
full fresh home-grown aloe vera (Kanticorr) leaf skinned and eaten first
thing every morning. Believe you me, 60 pushing person is now back to his
100 meter sprints and other untinkable old routine exercises plus running
about the whole day. The person wants to go back to the table to perform the
angiography in good time just to see for himself the fresh visuals.
That is aloe vera for you.
However, I have discarded the claims of this person as it is difficult for
anyone to make me believe. I am a skeptic. I guess I am a Thomas :-))
Thank you for brining me in on this.

Subject: [Goanet] Benefits of Aloe Vera
You use it when you have sunburn, it is said to be act as a coolant to the
skin when it burns. It is also great for the skin condition eczema.
Researchers believe that the sap that comes from the actual Aloe Vera
plant
can reduce inflammation. Researchers do find that cuts and bruises that
are
treated with Aloe Vera gel from the drug store heal faster than if you put
a
antibiotic ointment on it.
The Mucoplysaccarides in the gel of the leaf of the plant is said to have
the most healing benefits of the Aloe Vera. Aloe Vera is also a key
ingredient in many toiletry products. You will find aloe in skin
moisturizers, soaps, sunscreens, lotion and shampoos. The Aloe Vera gel is
used mostly in dry skin conditions, like eczema, sunburn and rough dry
skin
due to cold weather.
Aloe Vera is very useful in the medicinal way, it is said to be an
important
part in the treatment of bronchial congestion. It is also good for
digestive
problems such as constipation. The Aloe Vera plant is very beneficial to
the
health in the form of the liver, ulcers, hemorrhoids and colon conditions;
Ale Vera gel keeps the colon clean. The use of Aloe Vera has been around
for
a long time and there are new products that contain Aloe Vera everyday.
Studies have shown that because the plant has a great reputation that more
people would buy a product just because it has the name Aloe Vera in it.
