Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | What's great about this new dried aloe vera gel from good cause wellness (www.GoodCauseWellness.com) is that it's the best-tasting aloe vera gel I've tried yet. It's still not as good as fresh aloe vera gel (fresh is always the best), but growing your own aloe vera is only possible if you live in a climate that does not freeze. In some parts of the country, you can successfully grow aloe vera in containers by keeping it outside during the summer and bringing it inside during the winter months, but this is a bit rough on the plant and it typically does not flourish under such circumstances. | | By the way, good cause wellness has a special offer coupon for NewsTarget readers. The code is AV20 and it gets you an exclusive 20% discount off the product price. We negotiated this discount on behalf of our readers. As always, we earn nothing from the sale of these products, and we have no financial stake whatsoever in their sale. (This is true for all nutritional and supplement products we recommend. | | This is exactly how the aloe vera gel is processed in the good cause wellness product. I know because I had a long conversation with the manufacturer of the aloe vera flakes, and I've seen pictures of their operation: It's a large aloe vera leaf fillet factory!
Unlike the gel, the skin and sap of the aloe vera leaf are not food. In fact, they're extremely bitter precisely for the reason of discouraging desert rabbits from eating the plants. Here in the desert, rabbits and Javelina will eat just about anything: Palo Verde leaves, prickly pear cactus pads, flowers and roots. | | How to get this low-temperature dried aloe vera gel
Right now, the only company I know of that's offering this product is good cause wellness (www.GoodCauseWellness.com) which also donates 10% of sales to natural health causes and non-profits. Alan Friedman, the founder of GCW, has just launched this line of 100% aloe vera gel flakes.
In addition to being an outstanding supplement to add to any smoothie, it would also make a perfect product for first aid use, by the way. Simply add water to the aloe vera gel flakes and you have a natural band-aid that kills bacteria and seals the wound. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | Founded by Alan Friedman, a fitness enthusiast and family-oriented nutrition consumer, good cause wellness not only offers some hard-to-find nutritional products that I personally use every day, they also donate 10 percent of net sales to health freedom organizations that fight for your right to buy nutritional supplements. Note that this donation is not 10 percent of profits, it's 10 percent of net sales (a much bigger number). They'll also be publicly posting those donations as proof of their commitment to supporting these important consumer advocacy organizations. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | Alan Friedman's good cause wellness company is a rock-solid provider of superfood products. He offers astoundingly good customer service and incredibly fast shipping times. He has everything in stock and ready to ship right now (as of this writing), but order quickly if you want some to beat the holiday rush. Here's what good cause wellness has to say about their gift pack:
Our Holiday Wellness Gift Pack is a collection of our most popular, delicious and nutrient-rich products. | | Notes from Mike Adams: This is a really outstanding gift set from good cause wellness. The superfoods it contains are exotic, nutrient rich and are great conversation starters. That's why it makes such a great gift, because people will want to ask you, "What is this cool stuff?" And you get to share with them all the great news about chia seeds, goji berries, aloe vera and Incan berries. This is a gift that the recipient will remember for years! (You can bet nobody else is giving them something so cool. Most food gifts are crap foods, made with processed meats, cheese and junk ingredients. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | 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. | | 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). | | That's why I hope Alan Friedman, the founder of good cause wellness, will soon offer a pure aloe vera gel without any other ingredients. That way, it could be used both as a food supplement AND as a first-aid product.
Aloe vera as a natural food preservative
A thin layer of aloe vera gel can be used as a natural food preservative, eliminating the need for chemical preservatives. Research conducted by Daniel Valero, Ph.D., of the University of Miguel Hernández in Alicante, Spain, showed that a thin layer of aloe vera gel was highly effective in preserving foods. | | Soon, a pure aloe vera gel product (with no added flavors) will likely be made available at good cause wellness (www.GoodCauseWellness.com) . You can simply mix some powder with purified water to make your own gel, then dip fruits and vegetables in the gel yourself. Apples, cucumbers, zucchini, tomatoes, peaches, potatoes, grapes and many other food items can be preserved in this way. And when you're done dipping produce in the gel, you can either drink the gel in a smoothie or put it on your skin as a skin rejuvenation treatment. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | And given all the companies we've covered, from Cyanotech, the Amazon Herb Company, Wellness Resources, the Life Extension Foundation, Integrated Health, good cause wellness, Eidonic Minerals, Nutiva, Ruth's Hemp Foods, Ola Loa, Nordic Naturals and countless others, we've never solicited a single company for any money or any cut of their sales. Not once.
Any journalist can verify this fact by calling all the companies we've publicized and asking them this question. |
