Why you may ask in these modern times would we still be using aloe vera? The short
answer is because it works. The construct of the plant is such that it could be
described as having a synergistic relationship with the human body when used
internally or applied topically.

Furthermore the health benefits of aloe vera make up a sizable list. Books have
been written about it, research undertaken by a variety of organizations and

http://www.aloe-vera-guide.com

institutions and those who have experienced its healing qualities cannot seem to get
enough of it.

From the treatment of sunburn to its use against serious conditions such as cancer,
diabetes, lupus, HIV aids and even weight loss, aloe vera health benefits are
highly regarded by its users.

My own personal experience in relation to the use of this plant has also been a
positive one which is why this site exists. As a breast cancer survivor having
experienced the side effects of radiation therapy, I developed a real interest in
alternative methods for the treatment of this disease.

I decided to investigate exactly what aloe vera contained so that I could get some
clear understanding of its healing properties.

Of course having grown up in the tropics I had always been aware of the beneficial
effects of aloe gel in the treatment of sunburn. However, I had no idea of its
potential for combating everything from digestive disorders to dentistry.

How exactly does aloe provide all these health benefits? Well I discovered that the
plant has some very important elements indeed.

For instance, it contains an element called acemann known as a
mucopolysaccharide; this ingredient can be extracted from the plant and used to
assist in combating such diseases as HIV Aids as well as feline leukaemia.

Throughout this website I have recorded much of what I have learned about the aloe
vera plant and the many health benefits it offers mankind.

As a result of the information I have gathered over the years, the consumption
of aloe vera has become a standard part of my daily nutritional regime.

Consequently, aloe has not only provided me with good nutrition but it has also given
me a certain amount of peace of mind. Anyone who has survived cancer will
understand that the fear never totally goes away.

It can sometimes feel like you are holding your breath and keeping your fingers
crossed in the hope that you will not succumb to the disease again.

Every little unusual twinge or out of the ordinary health event can raise the fear level.
By using aloe on a daily basis I feel that I am taking some control of and
responsibility for maintaining my good health.

Aloe Vera Guide to Aloe Oral Healthcare
A Natural Antiseptic that Kills the Bacteria and Protects Teeth
& Gums

Aloe Oral Healthcare - New research published in the Academy of General
Dentistry in June 2009 has revealed that the use of aloe as a toothpaste
provides clean, healthy teeth as it eliminates the bacteria which causes
cavities just as well as normal toothpaste.

The study compared the use of aloe vera gel against two popular brands of
toothpaste and found that it was as effective and in some cases more effective than
the toothpaste when it came to eliminating bacteria.

The new research also found that using aloe gel as toothpaste worked well for
people who suffered discomfort as a result of having sensitive teeth.

Because the gel lacks any of the abrasive content present in normal
toothpaste it is a gentle alternative for those who experience the
unpleasant and even painful sensations related to having sensitive teeth.
It does advise however that before starting to use aloe tooth gel as
toothpaste a dentist should be consulted.

As aloe also contains antiseptic properties using it as toothpaste will of course your
keep your teeth and gums clean and free from bacteria. Gum disease is a serious
problem as it can and has been known to lead to amongst other health issues, heart
attacks.

This is as a result of the bacteria from your gums eventually making
its way into the blood stream and causing a build up of plaque in
the arteries effectively creating blockages and inflammation.
Needless to say that toxins leaking from the gums into the blood stream is
not conducive to anyone keeping in good health.


Having always been aware of the health benefits of aloe vera I cannot say
that I am at all surprised at learning that once again this plant has proven
its worth as a potentially new mouth care system.

However, as I have pointed out before on this site, not all aloe is equal
and because the plant has to be processed in a very precise way in order
to preserve and stabilise the gel.

This is because there are thousands of products which claim to contain
aloe, however, it could be that the percentage of aloe in a particular
product is so minute as to be irrelevant or alternatively, the aloe has not
been manufactured to the correct criteria which means that it will be
ineffectual as it will no longer contain any of its active properties thereby
making it completely useless.

It is therefore a good idea to read the label carefully to check the
percentage of aloe that is actually contained in the product, good products
usually contain about 80% so anything less and the product is probably
not up to much.

You could also check the product with the International Aloe Council
however, not all products are registered with them as some
manufacturers are not prepared to pay for this service but their product is
of high quality, so it really is a case of checking labels for content or even
purchasing your own aloe plant and making your own toothpaste at
home.

However, for those of you like me who just don't have the time to make
our own, I have included some products that I use on this page for your
further information and convenience just click on the links if you wish to
purchase or just have a closer look at the ingredients and product
specifications.

Thank you for visiting aloe oral healthcare and we hope you will visit the
site again in the future; alternatively, why not sign up for our newsletter

Does Aloe Vera Cure Acne? Is there a Definitive Answer to
this Question? Aloe Vera Guide Investigates

Does Aloe Vera Cure Acne? - Part 1

This is a question that has been asked quite often with some saying yea and some
saying nay. However, although it may not always be viewed as an outright cure for
acne, it can most certainly be considered an exceedingly effective treatment for
reducing the symptoms and discomfort of acne.

Of course as most readers are probably aware, acne itself is caused primarily, as a
result of the clogging of the skin pores by the secretions of the sebaceous glands in
the skin. These clogged up pores then attract bacteria and the end results are the
unsightly skin eruptions, commonly called acne.

As to the question does aloe vera cure acne, it should be noted that the aloe plant
contains a wide variety of properties, including anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antiseptic,
antibacterial and even a certain level of painkilling qualities.

It has not been looked upon as a popular remedy for many centuries without good
reason. Essentially, the plant could be deemed one of the most effective and useful
natural treatments available; especially in the area of skin care.

For those who may be interested, the best way to proceed with using aloe vera as a
home remedy for the elimination of acne is to use the gel directly from the plant itself.
Thoroughly cleanse the area of skin/body/face to be treated with a gentle cleanser or
even better a home made cleanser then apply the gel and leave the area to dry.

You can carry out this treatment as many times during the day/night as you wish as it
will not do any harm to your skin. Follow this routine regularly and you should see an
improvement within 7 to 10 days if not sooner.

If you do not experience any improvement whatsoever after this period of time; then
your problem is probably more deeply rooted and you may need to see a
doctor/dermatologist for further advice. It is possible the acne may be an outward
symptom of an internal problem.


Cystic acne is another type of infected pimple but the infection goes deeper under
the skin, like a boil. Acne can also be caused by other skin conditions such
as rosacea. It is always useful to know what type of acne you have before you start
treating it.

Assuming however, that your acne is of the type caused as the result of a blockage
under the surface of the skin, cleansing carefully and using aloe vera gel regularly
will definitely provide a solution to this problem.


When it comes to cystic acne however, it should be noted that it is much
more likely to leave scars than acne vulgaris or common acne. While acne
vulgaris is most often found on the face, chest and back, cystic acne can
produce boils in the armpit and groin areas, lower back and/or buttocks.
It is also possible to have more than one type of acne at a time.

It is vital that you never attempt to pop cystic acne as this will cause the
infection to spread. It can also often result in the area becoming very
swollen, angry and exceedingly painful.

Cystic acne almost always has a hormonal cause, usually commencing around the
time of puberty when the body begins to produce large quantities of sex hormones. In
most cases it will gradually improve in adulthood.

It is also worth highlighting that although the application of aloe gel to cystic acne
may not eliminate the underlying cause of the problem completely, it can still improve
the outward symptoms and reduce infection in angry red areas making them less
painful and obvious.

Aloe also has scar reduction properties so it may help to remove any potential there
may be for scarring of the area. For these reasons, it is advisable to apply aloe gel to
the infected areas as it will not do any harm and will provide overall improvement in
appearance as well as a reduction in discomfort and/or pain as its antibacterial
properties impact on the underlying infection.

Finally, in regard to the original question does aloe vera cure acne the answer may
be relative to the individual’s personal experience of using the plant combined with
the definition of the word ‘Cure’. One such definition of this word to be found in the
dictionary is as follows:“Restoration of health; recovery from disease”.

Consequently, for those whose acne responds positively to this treatmentit could be
said that their health has been restored as they have recovered from the disease;
therefore they are cured.

For a variety of reasons some individuals may not experience a complete cure and
will therefore hold a different perspective on the subject. It is not unusual for some
medicines to work on certain people or symptoms while not having any effect on
others.

Does aloe vera cure acne? From a personal stand point I would have to say yes as
although it may not always get rid of the problem completely, it will certainly have a
positive impact on the symptoms and underlying infection providing relief to the user.

Possibly, it will have to be applied quite regularly over a period of weeks or maybe
longer before a total cure can be achieved. However, the improvement will be


noticeable and even if it is not an immediate cure, at the very least the ugly redness
and painful symptoms of cystic acne will be substantially diminished.


An additional route to the successful elimination of acne, both the vulgarisand cystic
acne types, is diet. One food in particular which appears to aggravate both types of
acne is cow's milk and its products, e.g. cheese, cream, etc. Several studies have
shown a link between dairy products and acne. It is quite likely a result of the
hormones fed to the cows in order for them to produce milk continually.

In fact, you may well find that should you use solely organic dairy products not only
will your acne improve but your overall health will benefit. It is not difficult to deduce
that whatever the cows are fed on will ultimately be present in the milk they produce.

I don't know about anyone else but I certainly do not wish to be consuming hormones
willy nilly without even being aware of it, via a food that we have all been brought up
to believe is extremely good for us.

It may also be helpful to cut out sugar plus other foods with a high glycemic load.
High glycemic foods are those with any kind of added sugars including high fructose
corn syrup (HFCS) and any other ingredients ending -ose. White bread, white rice
and other refined grain products also carry a high glycemic count, and so does fruit
juice.

Whole fruit has a lower glycemic load than juice, because the fiber in whole fruit
means that the natural sugars are not absorbed so quickly.


In further regard of the diet issue, there is a general view that due to the lack of good
nutrition in most of today's food, which seems to consist mainly, of fast foods
grabbed on the run, along with higher levels of stress experienced as a result of


hectic lifestyles; that our general health and wellbeing, in many ways has become
unbalanced and depleted, thus creating, amongst other syndromes and illnesses, a
noticeable increase in acne.

To further complicate matters, many over the counter acne treatments turn out to
be ineffectual as these tend to attempt eliminating only the symptoms rather than
treating the cause of ie, the bacterial infection itself which is the real root of the
problem.

For those who may wish to use a more mainstream approach to treat their acne, it is
advisable to carefully consider the ingredients of any lotion you might be tempted to
use. Many have chemicals that could end up causing more harm than good.

However, there is a remedy available which contains amongst other things aloe vera
and goes under the name of Acnezine. It also contains 5% Benzoyl Peroxide, which
works with the natural antibacterial aloe properties to eradicate the bacteria. This
combination of 5% peroxide and organic aloe vera with a few other healing herbs
included is very effective, as although the benzoyl peroxide tends to dry out the skin
the aloe of course provides a moisturizing element to the treatment.

Sufferers who have used this product have reported great improvements within a 30
day period and swear by its use as can be seen in the testimonial videos on
the Acnezine site.

Remember however, it is very important that you pay attention to your diet as no
matter what remedy or product you apply to your acne, if you are fuelling your body
with dairy products and highly processed foods your acne problem will not improve.

In conclusion, I hope this article Does Aloe Vera Cure Acne? proves helpful.
However, if you have any questions please contact me via this website and I will be
happy to answer any questions you may have.

Aloe Vera Benefits for Psoriasis
The Advantages of Aloe Vera for Skin Conditions
I recently came across some excellent research regarding aloe vera benefits
for psoriasis and decided to provide my readers with a brief outline of the
recommended procedure as determined by the results of the said research.
Hopefully, the following information will prove helpful to readers.

According to this research aloe vera benefits for psoriasis have proven quite
successful. Those among us who, unfortunately suffer from psoriasis are fully aware
of the irritation and discomfort caused by this particular affliction.

It should be noted that despite the rather unpleasant appearance of the skin lesions
this condition is not contagious so there is no chance of contracting it if you do not
already have the problem.

Of course there are various potions and creams prescribed that claim to alleviate
the symptoms of psoriasis. Furthermore, factors such as diet, an individual's living
environment and A and D vitamin deficiency have all been looked into with the
hope of pinpointing the cause of psoriasis.

Reasonably well known treatments for the problem include the exposure of the area
affected to sunshine, ultra violet and even the application of mineral enriched Dead
Sea mud is alleged to trigger definite improvement in the symptoms.

According to the research however, there is a specific procedure that if followed
regularly will provide relief as well as reduction of these unpleasant symptoms,
leaving the individual in a much improved state of physical health.

Subsequently, it is recommended that drinking at least 4ozs of the juice of the aloe
daily, as well as boosting the system via the use of vitamins and anti-oxidants are
first steps to beating the problem. The research also advises that all junk or fast food,
sugar, animal fat and/or any foods high in LDL cholesterol is cut out of the daily diet.
Furthermore, the researchers believe that including fresh vegetables and fruit, aids
quicker healing of the skin.


Personal hygiene is also seen to be important; a daily shower, using a mild soap
product and then spraying the affected areas with aloe is advised. Aside from this it is
also recommended that the sufferer apply aloe gel to the body ideally, four times per
day.

For further support the researchers go on to recommend that a sufferer of
psoriasis take a good quality multivitamin and mineral supplement and if possible
they should aim to get at least one hour's exposure to sunshine. Taking
an antioxidant such as pycnogenol or grape seed extract is also recommended.

Furthermore, to effectively activate aloe vera benefits for psoriasis, the guidance
stipulates that the aloe must be of whole leaf origin; the gel having been extracted via
the use of a cold pressed process. This is because the research undertaken revealed
that whole leaf gel contained five times the strength of most aloe gel sold over the
counter in many retail outlets.

In terms of healing power therefore, they believe that the cold pressed whole leaf
extract's potential for healing is far superior to gel derived through alternative
processes. Always ensure therefore that whatever aloe product you purchase is of a
high quality, of at least 80% strength and that it states it is cold pressed on the
product container.

To summarize therefore follow these steps to eliminate or
reduce symptoms of psoriasis:

Drink a minimum of 4ozs of aloe juice per day;

Spray affected areas with aloe after showering;

Aloe gel should be applied to the area at least four times per day;

Consume a diet high in vegetables and fruit;

Cut out junk/fast foods;

Supplement with a multivitamin/mineral;

Aim to expose affected area to sunlight for an hour each day or use a UV unit;

Support the system by taking antioxidants.

In conclusion, it would certainly seem that both internally and externally aloe vera
benefits for psoriasis definitely include the healing and/or reducing of the
unpleasant, irritating and unsightly symptoms of this condition.

Accordingly, in my view, anyone who experiences this affliction owes it to themselves
to at least give this procedure a trial. Aloe vera benefits for psoriasis are available to
anyone; and if the method works, think how much improved life could become.
