    Years ago, my great grandpa was released from the hospital given months to live from pancreatic cancer. His urine was black. My Nana (his daughter) started giving him liquid aloe vera 3 x a day with meals. He still got his shot of Old Crow at happy hour! His urine got clear, and he lived another 5 years at the old age of 92. This plant is so amazing and so many uses!

    Aloe Vera is an amazing plant. When I was a teenager I had burnt the whole side of my face. I was left with severe scarring. My mother was so shocked at my appearance she was getting ready to send me to the Dermatologist. Instead of going to the doctor, I decided to go to the Health Food store in my town. The owner of the store told me to rub aloe Vera gel on my face everyday, and she also instructed me to break open a vitamin E capsule every night and rub the vitamin E on my scars. Guess what happened? It took a couple of years of doing this regimen, and my face was totally healed of the horrible scarring that I had!!!! Amazing!!!!

    I know someone with polycythemia vera, which is incurable, and often becomes blood cancer. He is at the stage where a little physical work puts him in so much pain that he can barely move the next day. He just told me today that after 4 days of eating about a 3 inch piece every morning, that his pain has gone from a 10 to about a 1 or 2. He is just thrilled!

After the last few years I’ve developed internal pain and discomfort in my chest and esophagus it’s not like indigestion and I’m concerned it may be some type of serious disorder coming on I’ve recently discovered aloe consumption of this method and I don’t wanna speak too soon but I feel so much better just after the last few days I’ve been eating it. I’ve had the stuff growing in my yard the whole time and only ever used it for sunburns but now I hope it’s going to help my overall health as well.

    I bought a tiny little aloe plant and transplanted it to a very wide pot immediately. It has only been about four months and this thing has quadrupled in size! Glory be to GOD. I used a mix of little pebbles, organic dirt and some cheap dirt loaded with sand. I also put some bigger river pebbles in the bottom of the pot for drainage and it is loving it!

  • @ProfessorGilligan1
    @ProfessorGilligan1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +104

    I heard and saw the part about letting the yellow stuff bleed in the first soak. The wide end was pointed downward which probably constricted the migration of the yellow bitters, and caused some retention until the second container soaking. The smaller end should be pointed downward in the initial soaking to expedite removal of the yellow bitters. Also, more natural components like proteins and enzymes are destroyed by energy heat and momentum of high speed blades, especially once individual cell cytoplasms are released by the shearing of the cells. Slow speed juicing is less destructive. Think in terms of the free juicer you were born with-teeth. I bet you could eat those strips just like jello, too. Just some food for thought after years of experience as a Chemist, now with a serious interest in natural approach to healthy living and eating.

    I don't know if you know about this but I have advice to add something to your garden and put a bunch of it into smoothies every day or every other day. It is called Rhodiola Rosea the plant was involved in studies on animals and worms that extended the life span of animals, worms, and insects. It gives your cells energy allowing them to work more efficiently, when that happens you age slower and your body repairs itself faster. I have been trying to do research on what kinds of things would allow my body to repair itself faster than damage is being caused by free radicals and aloe vera, and rhodiola rosea are two of the things I am making a juice where it has the aloe vera gel, Rose water, Rhodiola Rosea, and Celery and oranges. experiment with how much you want to put to make it taste good to you :) add a sweetner if you want but no processed sugar

    I'm from Trinidad, and my grandmother use to blend the Aloe gel (not taking out the slime) with molasses and give us to drink bi-weekly on Saturday until we go (removal of our bowels), then she would wait six months until she does the same thing again. She never took out the slime because according to her the slime was needed to help us go (which makes sense to me because it work) and it was good because I still practice this with my family today and I get know complaints. However; one should not consume this to often and people with health issues and are on medications should not drink this with out consulting there doctors first, because Aloe contains a substance called anthraquinone which is a laxative and may cause adverse interactions with prescription and over-the-counter medications.

      M Donawa Thanks for your comment. You comment is the first one that suggested that persons with medical conditions should consult their doctors before taking aloe to avoid contradictions with their meds. My wife had cancer and although several of TH-cam videos and articles on the internet discuss aloe's benefits against cancer, aloe isn't necessarily a sure benefit to everyone.
      This doctor says he's a chiropractor not internal med physician. Neither of them recommended to the viewers to consult with a personal physician first. They were too focused on selling a aloe product.
      The point of this video is that if you're in reasonably good health this aloe has some health benefits. I enjoyed his video and appreciate the information he shared.

Well let me make your filleting of the Aloe a bit easier. This is the way I do it at home somewhat quicker than you and not so many utensils. Just pare it under running water. Then blend. I blend it with orange juice. Also try it with almond milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, rose water, and honey or maple sugar. For me, a wow.!!! Hope this helps.

    A lady ran up to my home. Almost broke my door down. Panicking and in shock. The neighbours Jack Russel dog has bitten her and I quickly made her sit down so that I could attend to the wound. The flesh was ripped open . Fat came out of her arm. I started of by cleaning it with Myrrh tincture. Went outside to cut an Aloe Vera leaf. Placed the white flesh of the gel inside the wound. Bandaged it up. Later that evening. As this happened in the morning, I took the bandage off. The wound sucked all the aloe Vera up. Renewed with a new piece of Aloe Vera gel, she was relieved from severe pain and after a couple of days the wound was clearly healing up
    This is an amazing plant and I want to grow much more plants of Aloe Vera in my garden.

    These plants can survive anything! Had one in my veggie garden, then moved the location of garden. The aloe was deserted and completely neglected. About 1 year later, I found it shrunken in the full lawn that had grown in. Dug it and put it in a pot with good soil. A few short weeks later, the leaves became broad and large, and it put off about 5 or 6 pups. A few months later it has sent up a shoot for bloom, and has one more pup. Since it is still in a pot, going to overwinter it in my shed near a window. It probably doesn't need that, but I've turned over a new leaf, and decided to stop being a ruthless plant mommy. When you see the difference between what a plant provides with care and what it does without, it rewards your effort.

      Biblically, dirt is not that big issue when it comes to eating with your unwashed hands/unclean hand. It is not important what comes-in thru our mouth but what will comes out from it --coz out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks!
      Oftentimes, we only see those visible dirt in others, we failed to see and appreciate the beauty that lies within the heart of the person. Our eye-gates make us judge our fellowmen without the second thought of exposing the real stubborn and filthy person in us. The corrupted minds of our hearts often expose us in broad daylight many times over but we unconsciously noticed it so we just ignore to change our character. Unless someone touched by The Almighty God to rebuke that person for his own betterment. And of course, transformation to a new you thus not come easy especially if you only rely on your own ability/capacity. You need to have The Supernatural Person to fully equipt and empower you to go against the cause of the tyranny of deception-who is the devil Satan--the father of all lies and the root cause of all the problems and entanglements in our world since time immemorial!
      You need to repent of your sin and surrender your life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and accept Him in your heart as your Lord GOD and only Savior of your soul. You have to be very serious in your relationship with Jesus as The Author and Finisher of your Faith. Read His Words/The Holy Bible and meditate therein day and night so that you may be careful to do everything that is written therein. Then you will be prosperous and successful.(Joshua 1:8-9)
      REMEMBER these MY FRIEND:
      (1)Heaven and Earth will pass away but my Words will remain forever.(Matthew 24:35)
      (2)The Word of GOD is the lamp for my feet and a light to my path.(Psalm 119:105)
      (3)...if there is any virtue and there is any praise think about these things(Phil.4:8)
      THANK YOU and SHALOM TO ALL!

Well I decided to break it apart and plant the pups, replant the ma, and water them. Wow! They keep having babies, I run out of pots, started putting them in the ground. So now I need to start utilizing them more than cutting a leaf here and there to rub on my skin.

    Nice video. whether or not you used the yellow slime all depends on what you are using it for. If you are going to do a detox.but if you'll want to keep the yellow slime. just note that it is what makes it bitter. If you use it for daily consumption then i would say just follow the soaking method above and this takes away the bitter taste too. Aloe can be used for all sorts of things but always do your homework when trying something new!
