Aloe vera juice can help you prevent colds and other ailments
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
It is already a well known fact that the juice from the aloe plant can soothe burns, but there is also research showing that drinking aloe vera juice, such as Optima Health & Nutrition's Aloe Pura can help in other areas, as well. Not only can it improve the immune system to fight off illness and infection before it starts, it can also help people ease their arthritis, control asthma, soothe ulcers and even help people live longer.
The digestive health benefits of aloe vera have been widely recognised for over 3,000 years, and the plant has also been found to help treat conditions such as ulcers and asthma.
We have a month's supply of Optima Aloe Pura aloe vera juice to give away to 21 readers.
One of the lesser-known benefits of aloe vera is that it is a potent immune-system enhancer.
Cinnamic Acid has anti-fungal and parasite-fighting abilities, Lupeol is anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic, Salicylic Acid has antiseptic and antipyretic properties, and Phenol is a natural anaesthetic.
The combination of these ingredients gives thee aloe vera plant the natural ability to attack, reduce, help control, or even eliminate internal and external infections.
Aloe vera has been used to help heal wounds, burns and scars; back in the 4th century BC Aristotle advised using it on battle wounds.
Aloe vera can detoxify the body and improve blood condition.
Also, being a natural healer, any internal ulcers or lesions will be soothed and healing will be enhanced.
The effects of aloe are gradual, gentle and with no irritant or harmful side effects.
Optima Health & Nutrition has developed an aloe vera range caalled Aloe Pura, made from 100 per cent natural aloe vera juice.
The Aloe Pura range includes a new pineapple and papaya flavoured Bio-Active aloe vera juice, as well as the Original, Cranberry and Wildberry flavours, and is available from Holland & Barrett and selected pharmacies and health food stores, costing �5.99 for 500ml or �10.49 for 1 litre.
A bottle of Bio-Active aloe vera juice will last for about two or three weeks by which time it will certainly have had a chance to take effect.
