Stomach Ulcers

Do you have stomach ulcers or know of someone who does? You might want to try aloe vera. Read this story:

Rowena Tucker, 48, teacher, lactation consultant, retired Physicians Assistant

"About ten years ago, I had not one ulcer, but two. I had read Prevention magazine for about thirty years. That got me to reading other alternative medicine information. Somewhere in all of this information, I knew that aloe vera was used to cure stomach ulcers.

My mother had always kept aloe vera around when we were growing up to use for burns. So I knew from personal experience how powerful aloe could be as a healing agent.

I went to my local health food store and bought a jug. It was a jug in the shape of a maple syrup bottle. I don’t know if that’s what they have now or not. I remember it was the unadulterated type, 100% aloe vera. It was more of a gel than a liquid. I used to swallow about four glubs, once in the morning, once in the evening. I choked it down. It was not bitter, just different. I used up the bottle. This took about 2-3 weeks.

It cured my ulcers. They never returned, even though I continued, off and on, to have digestive problems.

It wasn’t until about five years later that I recognized that I had the symptoms of celiac disease. I got my doctor to order the test for celiac disease, and this test confirmed it. Now I just leave all gluten out of my diet and I have no digestive problems. Of course, leaving all gluten out of your diet, isn’t as easy as it sounds, but you get used to it."

Sunburn!


There is absolutely NOTHING that beats aloe vera for sunburn. NOTHING!

Make sure you get the real plant....keep one always growing on your patio or in your yard.
Keep the unused leaf in the fridge. The cooling healing touch to your skin is unbelievable.
Right now I am slapping some on myself. If the gel seems to dry out, and there is still pulp, just dig your fingers in. More sap will flow.
Yes, I used 45 spf, no I didn't reapply as soon as you should ! Or I wouldn't be smearing aloe on myself right now.
This is truly one of God's miracle drugs. And I thank Him.
