THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND

As our globe the Earth is a biologic-ecologic system strictly based on natural laws, this implies that our health cannot be supported by any non-natural (synthetic) drugs, but with natural remedies and modalities – only.
 
With special reference to medicinal plants, used by mankind since thousands of years.  
 
To mention just one powerful medicinal plant our ‘modern’ society usually tramples under food, not knowing about its high medicinal value – aloe vera (other botanical name: aloe barbadensis). A thick plant with a short stem and hoarding water in its leaves.
 
With special reference to its rich content of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants.
 
Making it a safe and powerful remedy. According to the U.S. National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH).

ALOE’S CONTEMPORARY WORTH – SCIENTIFICALLY VALIDATED
 

Although aloe vera’s special benefit in most cases comes as a gel, one additional value is its natural contribution to management of

Diabetes

While the worldwide most prescribed diabetes drug, according to its producer comes with 80 side effects but no cure, aloe vera juice may support insulin sensitivity to help with blood sugar management. At least in cases of prediabetes and diabetes 2, with its positive effect on glycemic control.
 
Based on research at, inter alia, Mahidol University in Bangkok and Silpakorn University in Nakhon-Pathom – both Thailand.

Wound healing

is another health benefit of aloe vera, as it contains certain polyphenols which – along with other compounds – are inhibiting certain bacteria (and viruses) causing infections.
 
Aloe vera may help healing wounds if rubbed onto the skin. Including burns and also ordinary sunburn. In this capacity of skin protection aloe vera is used since almost 200 years.

Canker sores

(mouth ulcers) in the mouth or underneath the lip is part of aloe’s potential. Including pain reduction.
 
According to research at, inter alia, Chulalongkorn University in Thailand’s capital Bangkok.
