Aloe Vera - All Natural Remedy for Heartburn

While doing research for a previous blog post I found a product that I had never heard of before and I just had to buy so I wanted to share.

I found a product, Aloe-Papaya Drink by Ultimate living, which claims to aid in digestive health. I bought it for my boyfriend who frequently suffers from heartburn. It didn't cross my mind to purchase this product until I read the nutritional products testimonials on the Ultimate Living web site:

"Thanks for using your expert research to create such wonderful products. Since using your Aloe-Papaya juice, my heartburn is totally gone and my digestive system has improved."

Ultimate Living has combined the Aloe Vera juice and inner gel with organic papaya to formulate Aloe-Papaya drink. Aloe-Papaya delivers much needed energy to the immune system to cleanse, detoxify, heal and repair. All Aloe used for Ultimate Living's Aloe-Papaya juice is organically grown and certified for purity and content by the International Aloe Science Council. Not all Aloe products can make that claim.

After only about a week of using Ultimate Living's Aloe-Papaya drink my boyfriend has experienced a significant decrease in heartburn. I actually haven't heard him complain once, which used to be an almost nightly occurrence.

So, Amen to Aloe-Papaya. Now my boyfriend no longer suffers from heartburn and I no longer have to listen to the complain. :)

Aloe Vera - From Plant to Health Product

I know this blog has been terribly neglected for a while. But I'm back with all kinds of Aloe goodness for you.

I recently found this amazing video online showing how the Aloe Vera plant is processed into Aloe products.

The video shows how Carrington Laboratories, the global leader in Aloe Vera research and manufacturing, processes their Aloe Vera from Costa Rica for use in Aloe products, such as their popular Manpol® powder. The fascinating video starts with the Aloe plant being harvested from the farm and shows the entire process through to the end resulting in manufacturing of finished products such as Aloe beverages and Aloe Vera gel (including their own Acemannan Hydrogel™).

"Carrington is the only company that utilizes a medicinal-grade ethanol and water solution to preserve the polymeric mucilaginous polysaccharides from Aloe in their freshest and most active state. Carrington’s process never utilizes heat, enzymes nor charcoal filtration systems that destroy the plant’s properties. In addition, Carrington’s facilities are vertically-integrated from the nursery of pup plants to the manufacturing of finished products such as functional beverages, gels and creams."
