Aloe Vera – Nature’s Own Sports Drink!

 

Did you know Aloe Vera functions as nature’s own “sports drink” for electrolyte balance, making common sports drinks obsolete?  Neither did I until I read this article that was posted today on Melissa’s Produce blog.  The article is fascinating!  Digging a bit further, Mark Adams explains in greater detail the health benefits while sharing an aloe vera smoothie.

I don’t normally copy an article but thought this was worth sharing, especially since this is all new news to me.

Health Benefits of Aloe Vera

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”.

  4. Aloe Vera is very familiar to me. We had two of them in our home and when ever my mother had some kind of pain in joints my mom would eat this in form of “sabji”. She would even put the gluey thing on cuts of her feet. I have to say I did not like the taste but I can drink juice.

  5. Whenever I use my google identity I am never sure if my comment went through the first time. I copied this time.

  6. Who knew?! I sure didn’t. I don’t think I even knew you could use it for anything other than topical use (rubbing on burns, wounds, etc.) Thanks for the eye opener.

  7. Interesting read , Vicki ! When we were young , my mom told us to rub aloe vera juice on the scalp so that our hair will grow thicker , didn’t happen though 😀 Aloe vera juice/drink is also available here but haven’t tried it yet .

  8. Many benefits are new to me..I have only used it for facial mask. Thanks for sharing, Vicki.

  9. My grandpa used to grow this plant and used it as medicine. Asian store carries so many flavors of Aloe Vera drink that’s pretty delicious (but a little too sweet). I love the texture of it. This is a good stuff!
