ALOE VERA THE ORIGINAL LIQUID BANDAGE

ALOE VERA is perennial plant belonging to the lily family. It grows wild in Madagascar and throughout AFRICA. The Africans used their particular species of ALOE as an antidote to poison arrow wounds, and they rubbed it on their bodies to reduce perspiration and scent while hunting. - Bet they were grateful it grew wild - HEARDTHAT! There are about (500) Five hundred species of ALOE VERA all around the world.

ALOE VERA is probably one of the most common natural healing house plants today! Usually found in kitchens because of it's pain soothing healing abilities.

Most commonly used externally for:

  • Cuts
  • Burns
  • Blisters
  • Allergies
  • Abrasions
  • Insect bites
  • Note: In the 1970's two (2) FDA panels concluded there was insufficient evidence to give these time tested ALOE VERA applications the green light. (FDA Consumer 15(6):26-29, 1981 The Overselling of aloe vera. Hecht A.)

    It is however apparent to us, that ALOE has been proven to be a great natural healer for the skin. Big business must also agree because ALOE extracts can be found in numerous popular skin lotions, sun tan lotions and ointments.

    Now, there has been a lot of speculation concerning ALOE VERA's internal healing abilities.

    The FDA has approved it for (OTC) over the counter laxatives. A study on ALOE's internal natural healing abilities was conducted on lab mice. The results were positive.

    ALOE has been mentioned in positively enhancing the immune system and we know that this herb contains at least three anti-inflammatory fatty acids that are helpful for the stomach, small intestine and colon. While the HEARDTHAT staff has no medical training we use ALOE in various ways, effectively.

    But as always, in the end your health is your responsibility.

    It is important to repeat that this is our (opinion) educated guess based on historical fact and our bias. We at HEARDTHAT.net trust the creations of THE CREATOR versus the inventions of the created. You must research and examine the evidence for yourselves; for your health. HEARDTHAT!

    We recommend that if you don't have an ALOE VERA plant at home - get one.
