Aloe Vera

Recently, I had a mild case of acid reflux that was arrested instantly by this juice. I only ingested a shot glass full but couldn’t believe the results.

I recommended it to my Mom. She had been on “the purple pill” for a few years now. She was so impressed with how well this worked the very first time she tried it, she has begun to wean herself off of this pill for a more natural alternative. We use a brand that has had the bitters removed and the result is a drink that tastes just like spring water.

I also have aloe vera gel in my fridge to use in much the same way my grandmother would use the sap from and aloe vera plant for scrapes and cuts. According to the packaging, the gel is safe to consume. You can take a couple of ounces of the gel straight up or mixed with juice. I’ve also read both the gel and juice are awesome for hair.

I still have lots more research to do on this remarkable plant but for now, I think it’s safe to keep in my arsenal.
