Aloe Glow- The power of 'Acemannan'
By Laura-Lee
There is a mystical plant,
mounted upon the land,
like a crown of glory
with a compound called Ace-man-nan.
This magical ingredient
is found in Aloe Ferox and Aloe Vera
The legends of it’s story is passed
from teller to hearer.
The inner gel brings life-force,
A glow to skin, a shine to teeth,
But where the real healing comes,
is in the ‘skin beneath’-
The Digestive Tract,
an off-road of the outer skin’s highway.
It lubricates the GI tract,
detoxes, repairs and hydrates.
What’s happening on the outside
is a reflection of the state within,
Aloe protects the cells from stress,
or acid foods from poor living.
Alcohol, meat, sugar- destroy the gut health,
Commercial dairy too, but aloe puts back the ‘love wealth’.
It’s key in cell rejuvenation,
it works in collagen boosting,
Boosts heart health and physical endurance,
brings energy for when your low,
and roosting.
It’s anti-cancer properties
are where much excitement is held,
Animal studies proved Acemannan
beyond excelled,
In reduction of cancer growth,
it stimulates the fighting cells,
called Macrophages.
These cells are vital in preventing
cancer from rising in stages.
“It’s a Miracle! A marvel!”
But will it work for you?
That really depends on what you’ve put
your body through!
In terms of how quickly you see effects-
that, it can’t be said.
But what most do say is that
It does support from dread.
The moods- the highs and lows
that come from unstable blood sugar levels.
By supporting the release of
glucose and bio chemicals.
When you look after your gut
you look after your brain,
by combatting inflammation
you gain a new mind frame.
If the swelling’s down,
the brain can work from within.
Dopamine, serotonin,
and endorphins.
Oxytocin too-
all of these,
are ‘love drug’ hormones
that can flow with ease.
From linked connections
with the ‘love hub’,
“Your second brain” (your gut), your GI tract-
the gut and brain connection
is a well established fact!
What’s happening in your gut
determines how your brain soars,
with over 200 active enzymes
Aloe repairs and opens doors.
When you shift the toxins from your gut
and from your brain…
Your wounds can heal,
Your heart can heal,
You can feel the light again.
