In their own words.....
I used to go to this dentist when I lived over there... quite a snake oil salesman he was.


http://www.simplynaturalproducts.com/article.php?id=59
Within two days of using the products, I noticed a tremendous increase in energy. I had been riding a hypoglycemic roller coaster for years, fueling up on caffeine and sugar to climb out of the slumps, only to find myself in another some hours later. That first week, I felt good, but I really was not paying attention to it. It was approximately two weeks into using the new Aloe that I noticed that I was thinner. Because my weight had been creeping up, I had been avoiding the scale; but that morning I had to check it out. To my surprise, I was a full five pounds lighter. It was only then that I realized why I had lost the weight. I was no longer feeding with sugar and caffeine the roller coaster slumps, but I was cruising nicely along near the top.



I had been using the Aloe on my forehead, which had many patches of recurrent actinic keratosis, a pre-cancerous condition, which had in the past been removed with cryotherapy (liquid nitrogen). It took a month of using the concentrate, but these patches have gone into remission.



I have been an allergy sufferer my entire life, but the situation had been getting progressively worse over the last five years. When I first started using the new whole leaf Aloe the allergy symptoms got much worse, but then they started to clear. I have had a few bad days over the past five months, but generally I am greatly improved.

Today Aloe is used worldwide, particularly in the U.S. and Canada, both internally as a drink and in cosmetics and ointments. Japan currently imports over fifty million dollars of Aloe per year to treat people with ulcers and digestive problems.

5. Now that you have put your foot in it.... may I recommend that
you understand that this company sells diabetic wound care products to hospitals and that their freeze dried, stabilized, standardized aloe mucopolysacharides are powerful immune system enhancers and modulators. Many have benefitted from them but I don't expect you to either believe it or understand it. Not to worry though, the ones who know do share their experiences. The most lethal statement our parents can make, "If it was any good my doctor would have heard about it".


www.carringtonlabs.com

Carrington has spent nearly $100 million in research to isolate and stabilize the bioactive ingredients found in fresh gel of the Aloe vera L. plant.

In 1981, Carrington scientists began to search for the unique component of Aloe vera leaves. In 1982, polymeric mucilaginous polysaccharides were discovered by Carrington. The use of Carrington’s stabilized, pharmaceutically prepared gel containing Acemannan Hydrogel™ (a high molecular weight and highly hydrated polymeric mucilaginous polysaccharide) provides the moist wound environment necessary for the natural healing process. Acemannan Hydrogel™ is the only medical device from Aloe vera distinguished with clearance from the FDA for the management of wounds and cessation of pain.

8. Actually,
I had some Carrington Labs stock in my Wife's IRA for a while and I use alternative medicines quite a lot.

Thanks for posting.

10. Don't you mean, thanks for taking a beating now and again?
Kidding and glad you understand what can be done if a person has a mind to investigate the quackier side of healthcare.

2. Gee, if you get rid of the sugar and caffeine
by eating a balanced diet with protein and carbs, the roller coaster becomes flatland barge ride. And it tastes better than aloe, too.

9. aloe is great!
Weird skin lesions just disappear. It's fabulous. I have a ton of aloe plants--I have to move them inside in the winter though. They are so easy for my not so green thumb.

I use the plants for skin stuff but drink aloe that I buy if I ever get stomach issues.
