Aloe vera

Hi all, I was diagnosed with fibro in January, was put on medication where I suffered lots of side effects. I'm a working single parent and found it really difficult at times to cope. Then a friend of mine suggested I try drinking aloe Vera gels, I have been drinking the gel for nearly 12 weeks and all I can say is wow! I feel so much better, I feel energised and in less pain! I also use an aloe cream on my body which helps with mobility!

Has anyone else tried this? I'm so passionate about it now that am considering giving up my job and becoming a distributor of the products!.

Please do, I did a lot of reasearch and found a lot of people with fibro said it improved their condition and it really had helped, my doctor took me off tramadol and gave me co codamol and I was really worried if suffer, but I haven't at all and hardly take thd co codamol.

If you do decided you would like to try it please let me no and I'll pass my distributors details on x

Thanks. I did not realize that. I simply googled aloe for fibromyalgia and this thread came up. Thanks for bringing to my attention

no problem easily done. Might be worth starting a new post and asking the question. Someone is bound to know about Aloe. Personally use it for burns and for itchy skin.

Hi I have heard this before , in fact as one of my conditions is sjorgrens ,I have been told to use aloe toothpaste during the day and use the prescribed toothpaste at night and use eye gel and lip balm to easy dry lips. And the toothpaste easy my gums ,I use H&B as it's the cheapest I found hygienist told me you can pick it up In some supermarkets ,it doesn't have to be expensive brands ,good luck if you do decide to go with your idea xx

Hi Sarahs23

I sincerely hope that you are feeling well today? I am delighted to read that this has worked so well for you, and I genuinely hope that it has really helped improved the quality of your day to day life.

Unfortunately I am one of those people who are allergic to Aloe Vera, I discovered this after experiencing an attack of Urticaria in 2007. I had purchased some shower gels and shampoos form a well known national company and I only used them the once before I came out in Hives and suffered breathing problems. So it is not really for me!

I want to wish you all the best of luck with this, especially if you can make a go of being a rep and selling these products?

All my hopes and dreams for you

Hi Sarahs23,

My Daughter uses the liquid from the leaf of the Aloe Vera plant on my Grandsons eczema and it clears it up, no other creams or treatments seem to work on him. I also cleared up an unusual red and itchy spot I was getting worried about (I have had pre cancer spots removed before,) but the Aloe Vera leaf I now grow cleared it up quite quickly when other creams and ointments did nothing. There is a lot to be said about the healing properties of plants. :)

So glad to keep hearing positive things, if you are interested in looking at any other products please email me, there's a endless list, I've been drinking the gel everyday and it has really helped with my fibro, the toothpaste is great too, I'm going to start a 9 day body cleanse also nxt week. Really excited that my health is on the way up! X

Hello Sarah, I have used the liquid from the leaves of my Aloe Vera plant over 20 years for any sort cut, scrape, burn etc. I swear by it, it help speed up healing loads. All my friends now also have plants. I had heard about the drinking aloe gel but never tried. I will look into it more. Thank You.

I hope today finds you a little better than yesterday.
