I’m truly excited to be bringing you this information today about the miraculous  healing abilities of aloe vera. First off, in case you don’t know, let me  emphasize that I don’t sell aloe vera products of any kind, I haven’t been paid  to write this article, and I don’t earn any commissions from the sale of any  products mentioned here. I am, however, an enthusiastic supporter of natural  medicine, and I personally grow and eat aloe vera plants in Tucson,  Arizona.
In fact, my yard is an aloe farm, and each day before I make my  superfood breakfast smoothie, I walk out to my yard, slice off an aloe vera  leaf, thank the plant for granting me its healing medicine, then I fillet the  leaf and drop the aloe vera gel into my blender. A few minutes later, I’m  enjoying the most impressive medicinal herb that nature has ever created. (Click here to see the new PhotoTour showing step-by-step  pictures of how to fillet aloe vera and remove the inner gel.)
When I  say aloe vera is the most impressive medicinal herb invented by nature, I don’t  make that statement lightly. Of all the herbs I’ve ever studied — and I’ve  written thousands of articles on nutrition and disease prevention — aloe  vera is the most impressive herb of them all. (Garlic would be a close  second.) There is nothing on this planet that offers the amazing variety of  healing benefits granted by aloe vera. 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. • Reduces high  blood pressure natural, by treating the cause, not just the symptoms. • Nourishes the body with minerals, vitamins, enzymes and glyconutrients. • Accelerates healing from physical burns and radiation burns. • Replaces  dozens of first aid products, makes bandages and antibacterial sprays  obsolete. • Halts colon cancer, heals the intestines and lubricates the  digestive tract. • Ends constipation. • Stabilizes blood sugar and reduces  triglycerides in diabetics. • Prevents and treats candida infections. • Protects the kidneys from disease. • Functions as nature’s own “sports drink”  for electrolyte balance, making common sports drinks obsolete. • Boosts  cardiovascular performance and physical endurance. • Speeds recovery from  injury or physical exertion. • Hydrates the skin, accelerates skin  repair.
Truly, there is nothing else that compares to the medicinal  potential of aloe vera.  And yet most people only know about the topical applications of aloe vera  gel. They think it’s only good for sunburns. In reality, aloe vera is useful  for both external and internaluse. In this article, I’ll discuss  both.

Journey with me to the desert

To understand why aloe vera is so  important, come with me to the deserts of Arizona. There, you’ll find an  abundant diversity of plant life featuring impressive adaptations to living in a  nearly water-free environment. Some of the trees, for example, have green bark  and almost no leaves in order to reduce water loss. Small weeds have incredibly  strong tap roots that thrust deep underground to find every last drop of  moisture, and succulents have developed water storage techniques that capture  water in an internal matrix of unique long-chain polysaccharides.
After a  rain in the desert, you can actually watch the succulents swell to 130% their  usual size as they take in water. During periods of drought, they slowly shrink  back to normal as the excess water locked in their gel matrix is  consumed.
It is these succulents we’re interested in here, and it’s only  the inner gel that we’re focused on, because this inner gel has medicinal  properties you’d be surprised to learn. For starters, there’s the fact that all succulents have self-repairing abilities. They don’t simply store  water in a giant internal “water tank” that leaks out if torn or punctured:  Their internal gel repairs any cut or tear by automatically shrinking the wound  and creating a new water-tight seal. This gel matrix is comprised of hundreds of  different phytochemicals that not only store water and repair injury; they also  grant notable medicinal effects to humans who consume them.
Until now,  there was only one good way to get aloe  vera gel: Grow it yourself. I’ve done that for years, and when I’m making a  smoothie, I often cut a large aloe vera leaf out of my yard, slice off the thick  green skin of the leaf, and drop the large gel piece into a blender. You can see  how this works in the aloe vera PhotoTour. The piece of aloe vera gel you see in  the last picture is what I ate.
The reason I’m writing about aloe vera  now is because a company I know here in Arizona called Good Cause Wellness (www.GoodCauseWellness.com) has launched a line of  low-temperature dried aloe  vera & berry products that you can use as ingredients in any smoothie. It’s  the next best thing to growing your own fresh aloe vera leaves. It’s a  high-grade, pesticide-free, highly concentrated aloe vera gel powder (just the  gel, not the leaf) available in two mixtures: Aloe Vera + Raspberry Powder and  Aloe Vera + Blueberry Powder. This makes aloe vera gel available to  everyone, not just those who live in the desert.
You see, until now,  I’ve been a strong proponent of the health benefits of aloe vera, but I had no  advice for teaching others how to take the product. The typical aloe vera  liquids available in retail are very weak, and some contain almost no aloe vera  juice whatsoever. Many are mixed with food thickeners to make them look like a  gel, but most have been heated, destroying a significant portion of their  healing effects. This new aloe vera gel powder is the best form of aloe vera  I’ve seen yet, and it’s in a convenient format that’s perfect for using in your  own smoothies.
I’ll talk more about the products in a different article.  Here, I’d like to focus on the substantial health benefits of aloe vera to let  you see just why I’m so excited about the medicinal applications of this miracle  plant.

Health benefits of aloe vera gel

What I’m about to offer here are my own  opinion statements about aloe vera’s healing benefits. It’s interesting that if I were selling aloe vera myself, I could never make these true  statements because the FDA would seize my inventory and shut me down for  “selling unapproved drugs.” But I’m not in the aloe vera business, I’m in the  business of helping people heal, and I will not censor the truth about the  healing powers of aloe vera merely to appease a corrupt Food and Drug  Administration that continues to censor and oppress information about the  healing benefits of natural medicine.
Here’s what I know about aloe  vera’s health benefits:
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).

Personally, I believe that anyone wishing to prevent or  cure cancer should seriously investigate aloe vera as part of their recipe for  eliminating cancer for life. I wouldn’t rely solely on aloe vera, especially  since there are dozens of cancer cures that are now well known in naturopathic  medicine. Combining the right herbs (like cat’s claw), superfoods (like spirulina),  advanced therapies (like intravenous vitamin C), oxygen therapy and other  modalities will give you the best results when battling any form of cancer. Work  with a naturopathic physician to learn more.
Aloe vera halts  inflammation Using aloe topically is well known to ease inflammation of  joints, reducing arthritis pain. But aloe can also be used internally, reducing  inflammation throughout the body from the inside out. People who drink aloe vera  for two weeks typically begin to experience a significant reduction of  inflammation symptoms.

Aloe vera enhances skin  health Aloe is one of the most widely-used ingredients in high-grade skin  care products. There’s a reason for that: It’s great medicine for the skin! Aloe  soothes the skin, hydrates it, nourishes it and accelerates the regeneration of  new skin tissue. (In fact, simply removing the gel from a living aloe vera leaf  and placing the raw gel on your face is far superior to even the most expensive  eye cream or skin care product on the market.) And while most people are only  familiar with using aloe vera externally, aloe also enhances skin health when  used internally. Drink more aloe and your skin glows!

Aloe vera stabilizes blood sugar in  diabetics Diabetic patients who take aloe vera for 3 months experience a  significant drop in fasting blood sugar levels. They also exhibit lower  cholesterol levels and slight improvements in total cholesterol. Numerous  clinical studies have been published that demonstrate aloe vera’s antidiabetic  properties.
Diabetics are also likely to benefit strongly from aloe  vera’s blood enhancements (see below). Since aloe reverses “sludge blood” and  boosts circulation to extremities, diabetics suffering from peripheral  neuropathy (hands and feet going numb) are likely to benefit strongly from aloe  vera supplements.

Aloe vera lowers cholesterol and triglycerides When  used internally, aloe vera gel improves the quality of the blood and helps  rebalance the blood chemistry in a way that lowers cholesterol and total  triglycerides (in people with elevated levels). When you consider that  blueberries are also powerful cholesterol-lowering medicines, you realize why  the Good Cause Wellness Aloe Vera + Blueberry product is such a  smart idea: Both ingredients lower high cholesterol! Plus, this is far safer  than using statin drugs, which have extremely harmful negative side effects  while depleting the body of nutrients such as CoQ10.
My advice to anyone  on statin drugs is  to strongly consider using high doses of aloe vera + blueberries to safety  transition off statin drugs (all under the supervision of a naturopathic  physician, of course). Aloe vera won’t kill you like statin drugs can, either.  Aloe is completely safe to eat like a food. Given the cholesterol benefits of  aloe and blueberries, statin drugs are actually obsolete. There are natural  alternatives that are far safer, less expensive and more effective. Aloe vera is  one of them.

Aloe vera relieves joint and muscle pain This  effect is directly related to the inflammation factor mentioned above. It works  when used both internally and externally. Essentially, aloe reduces overall  inflammation. Of course, is you continue eating a pro-inflammatory diet (red  meat, milk, sugar, white flour, fried foods etc.) then you’ll never get rid of  all your inflammation with aloe alone, but aloe can help ease your pain while  you transition to a healthier lifestyle that eliminates the inflammation for  good!
Aloe vera amplifies the antioxidant effects of  vitamins This is an especially interesting effect of aloe: It makes  vitamin C, vitamin E and other antioxidants work better! It actually potentiates  antioxidants, probably due to its effect on enhancing blood quality and allowing  the blood to more effectively transport oxygen and nutrients to the body’s  cells. In fact, it is my belief that aloe vera makes everything nutritious  work better due to its blood-enhancing effects. If I’m right about that, it  means aloe can potentiate anti-cancer herbs, too, helping them more effectively  target tumors.
Aloe vera actually contains advanced biochemical  technology that the drug companies can only help to understand someday. This  technology was built by nature, and it’s 100% compatible with the human body.  All you have to do to experience this technology for yourself is eat aloe vera  gel!
Aloe vera cures ulcers, IBS, Crohn’s disease and Celiac  disease Polysaccharides in the aloe vera plant have curative effects on  numerous digestive disorders. The Internet is a storehouse of information and  testimonials about aloe vera curing IBS, ulcers, Crohn’s disease and other  disorders of the digestive tract. This is one of the best-known applications of  aloe vera gel.
Taking aloe certainly isn’t a magic bullet cure, of  course. It won’t reverse your disease after drinking one glass of aloe vera gel.  It needs to be used regularly. Most people report positive results in 3 – 30  days, depending on the condition.
Aloe vera contains acemannan, a  natural immune booster There’s research being done now on the anti-cancer  effects of acemannan, a phytonutrient found in aloe vera. In one study, dogs and  cats undergoing radiation for cancer were given acemannan as an adjunctive  therapy. Not only did the tumors shrink more in the acemannan-treated group, but  post-treatment survival was significantly extended. Click here for an abstact on the study.
Google Scholar lists hundreds of links exploring the  anti-cancer effects of acemannan. If you browse the studies, you’ll realize that  acemannan from aloe vera accelerates the destruction of cancer tumors, improves  survival time and results in far better recovery from toxic cancer treatments. One study shown heredemonstrates that acemannan increases  cells’ production of nitric oxide (NO), an anti-cancer chemical strongly  associated with the shrinking of cancer tumors. Essentially, the more nitric  oxide you produce (to a point), the less cancer you have, and acemannan  increases the production of nitric oxide. Although this particular research was  focused on chickens, the same effect has also been observed in humans.
