Aloe Vera, Natural Alternative Medication Dermatologists Should Consider
(ContentDesk) June 8, 2005 -- As more patients who suffer from skin ailments seek cost-effective medications, Dermatologists would be well advised to research the time-tested results of the Aloe Vera plant's gel. Why more physicians do not recommend the use of Aloe Vera to their patients is somewhat of a mystery. Could it be that the amazing results reported by users of Aloe Vera causes doctors to question the validity of the plant's ability to heal? "I understand why," commented Comer. "It is truly difficult to conceive of a single plant with as many healing attributes as those of the Aloe Vera. By nature we have a tendency to distant ourselves from things we do not fully understand," he added. However, when doctors fail to explore the benefits of medications, the patient is the loser. Generally, it is a patient dissatisfied with the results of a physician's prescribed medication that will ultimately seek and try other cures. Patients that experience positive results from their use of Aloe Vera are often the leading cause for a physician's consideration to use this natural cure in his or her practice and recommend it to other patients. Mother Nature has a remarkable way of pulling together the right combination of nutrients that work cooperatively to produce a powerful and effective skin and digestive tract remedy. Often referred to as the Medicine or Burn plant, and prized for its medicinal benefits, the use of Aloe Vera has been documented for thousands of years. Scientists, researchers and medical professionals have tried for many years, without success, to isolate the key elements that produce the dramatic results obtained from the plant's gel. It is now the general consensus that no one element that make up the chemistry of the plant is able, in itself, to result in the natural healing and detoxifying powers it produces. Instead, the synergy of the more than 75 nutrients it contains
contributes in varying degrees to the results.In addition to the traditional uses of Aloe Vera for burns, minor cuts and infections, individuals who suffer with skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, ulcers, acne and like conditions of the skin have consistently obtained outstanding results from its use, even when other controlled medications failed. The benefits of Aloe Vera do not end with its external applications. Studies have shown that those who suffer from common digestive tract ailments like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), dyspepsia, indigestion and heartburn reported significant improvement in their conditions because of daily drinking Aloe Vera gel. Perhaps one of the greatest attributes of Aloe Vera is that it is non-toxic and since it is a nutrient and not a drug, it can safely be taken with other medications; however, consult your physician before doing so.To summarize, the Aloe Vera plant has the ability to provide essential nutrients; to promote healthy tissue growth by the reduction of inflammation; and to kill bacteria and other foreign organisms that attack damaged or unhealthy skin. It not only works with the skin, but also the digestive tract and the body's immune system. It is Mother Nature's solution to living a healthier more energized life.The author, Arthur Comer is the owner and general manager of ALCJR Enterprises, a 5-year old Midlothian, Virginia-based mail-order company that grows and retails Aloe Vera, Tillandsia and Anthurium plants.
