Aloe Vera is a natural plant that has been used beneficially
as a nutritional supplement for over 2,000 years. It may change color
slightly with time, which does not affect its value. These Whole
Leaf Aloe Vera Beverages are manufactured under U.S. Patent Number
5,356,811. In this process, Aloin and Aloe-Emodin have been removed.
The root word "Vera" is Latin for "true." So
Aloe Vera would be the true Aloe plant. Actually there are over
200 plants in the Aloe family, but there is only one true Aloe.
The true Aloe grows in a rosette configuration. Its leaves can
grow up to 30 inches in length and up to 5 pounds in weight. The
plant is actually subtropical and needs about 36 inches of water
per year in order to produce the maximum amount of leaves. The
plant can live for months without water because it utilizes the
stored gel in the leaf as its source of energy. This stored gel
is what is used to manufacture Life Plus' Aloe Vera Products.
For many years, manufacturers were discarding about
80% of the activity during processing. When we go back to how the
Romans, Greeks, Mexicans and the Indians used the product, they would
take the leaf and either break it or cut it open and use the thick
mucilaginous gel that would run out or they would take the leaf and
split it and tie the gel part down and apply to the skin. Even today,
that is the world's best approach for many applications. Life Plus'
Aloe Vera Products are manufactured using the whole leaf-a very important
factor.
In the middle to late 1970's, work
had started to utilize the entire leaf, not losing the matrix gel
discarded in earlier processing methodology. The new Whole Leaf Process
captures all of the activity in the plant and then the unwanted substances
such as Aloin (laxative) and Aloe-Emodin are removed. So this gives
us the best of both worlds. A United States patent has been granted
for this special process. The patent belongs to the formulator of
Life Plus' Aloe Vera Products, Bill C. Coates, R.Ph., we note with
pride, has been a leader in Aloe Vera efforts, and has authored several
books in this area including Aloe Vera-The Inside Story-The Internal
Uses of Aloe Vera (1995), Creatures In Our Care -The Veterinary Uses
of Aloe Vera (1985, with Richard E. Holland, D.V.M.) and others.
The internal use of Aloe Vera
is well documented. Major universities and research groups have
published volumes of reports regarding internal applications. The
findings of the continuing research are truly impressive. As a
Dietary Supplement, many individuals will find Aloe Vera to be
of interest in maintaining normal healthy stomach lining, digestion,
cell growth, and as a general overall tonic. Studies in animals
suggest possible beneficial effects on maintenance of normal healthy
function of the kidneys, heart muscle, clot formation, general
cell growth and support of normal healthy cell proliferation, blood
sugar levels, the immune system and even longevity. Findings relevant
to humans will, of course, be followed with great interest, especially
in research areas with potential applications to normal healthy
energy levels and as an overall tonic. On the consumer level, Aloe
Vera has become of wide-spread interest to athletes, sports participants
and other highly active people interested in supporting and maintaining
their overall activity levels.
