ENCORE: The Healing Attributes of Aloe for Skin and More, Part 1
January 24, 2023
The Benefits of Aloe. Dr. Michael Haley, nutritional chiropractor, believes gut health is central to wellness. He explains the science behind the healing attributes of aloe for skin conditions, GI problems, and even diabetes. Aloe is frequently used for treating burns and skin abrasions; it may also speed resolution of psoriasis, eczema, and lichen planus. The controversy arises over the use of aloe internally. Dr. Haley explains why some components of the aloe plant may have an irritative, laxative effect. Proper processing yields aloe fractions with more of the healing, anti-inflammatory benefits for conditions like GERD, ulcers, and colitis. Which is better—gel or juice? What about thickeners like carrageenan? Should aloe products be preservative-free? Unpasteurized? What about flavorings? Learn more at www.aloe1.com. Click HERE for part 2.
