ALOE VERA
George's "Always Active" Aloe
What does the Roadrunner know that you don't?
Fifteen centuries before the birth of Christ, Egyptian writings acclaimed the miracle plant we know as Aloe Vera, even then referred to as an "ancient cure.'' Cleopatra, Alexander the Great and Aristotle were fans of this strange succulent prized for its soothing, healing and analgesic ability. Indians in Central and South America used it to treat burns., kidney and bladder infections, dysentery, stomach and intestinal disorders.
The pulp of the plant has been used to reduce swelling and pain from injuries, while in Mexico it is used to treat arthritis and gout. For many years people have kept aloe plants around for emergency burns. Of course, we make no medicinal claims. We just report what others have said over thousands of years.
But the people at Warren Laboratories
were interested enough to take a good look at this fascinating botanical wonder.
Of the 200 plus varieties of Aloe, they quickly found that only
five or six fit the enzymatic structure for the cosmetic and
so-called "medicinal" properties mentioned.
Then - while we were studying these succulents in their natural desert setting,
the little "Beep-beep" bird from the Saturday cartoons, the roadrunner,
scooted across a Mexican road and changed their lives.
What got their attention was not the fact that the roadrunner drank from the Juice of the Aloe Vera - but that it passed up many plants to get to a particular one. They studied acre after acre and found the roadrunner "peck marks" only on one particular species. The other aloes were untouched. Their Houston Lab found that, indeed, it had a much different gel than other aloes.
The products now labeled as "George's Always Active Aloe" are exclusively from that particular Aloe variety, the roadrunner's choice.
16 oz Aloe Gel: 99% Aloe This stuff is the best ever!!! Many Aloe 'gels' in fact are almost as liquid as water, which makes them useless for putting on the skin. Note that many so-called aloe gels contain only a fraction of aloe. This gel is good and solid for application to the skin and doesn't need refrigeration.Try it for insect bites, itchiness, burns, sunburn and aching muscles. Use it on animals as well! It is especially cooling for sunburn. I never travel without it - Stephanie Relfe $12.95 |
