Aloe Vera: uses and utilities

The pulp or gel of Aloe Vera has been used and is still used in all the cultures of the world, being the plant adaptable to different climates and because its use covers a wide range of utilities, that is, it serves for a lot of things! Long being a magical plant has always helped man to heal from wounds and diseases.

Considered a mere home remedy (in the Western world) until a few decades ago, today there are many scientific studies that support its properties: apart from polysaccharides, amino acids, enzymes, etc. Aloe Vera contains strong proportions of germanium that acts as a purifying filter of the organism, eliminates poisons and waste cells, restructures and revitalizes the bone marrow, reactivates the immune system, stimulates the production of endorphins, which calm the pain.

“All plants that contain germanium have been considered miraculous and are: Aloe Vera, Ging-Seng and Shiitake Mushrooms.”
