CAPE ALOE Pure 450
Cape
Aloe Pure 250 contains aloe ferox and is an excellent product used for
the relief of constipation and/or those prone to constipation. It is a
good detox supplement to help reduce the
amount of toxic waste in the colon and great for use when constipation
is a problem on a low fat, 500 calorie a day diet plan like the Simeons X-3 Lean Diet.
Cape
aloe is produced from a hearty, succulent plant grown in arid
conditions such as those in South Africa known as Aloe Ferox. It is a
gentle, yet effective product to address constipation, unlike the herb
Senna or Cascara Sagrada, which can over stimulate the colon muscle.
Common names for aloe ferox are cape aloe, bitter aloe and tap aloe.
What is the difference in the laxative, cape aloe, compared to Aloe Vera?
The
most common use of cape aloe or aloe ferox, is for laxative purposes
and for the relief of constipation and it is produced by the Cape Aloe
plant from South Africa, as mentioned above. It is generally ground to a
powder and then encapsulated and taken as a supplement as a laxative.
Laxatives help purge the intestines and stimulate bowel movements. The
difference in Cape Aloe and Aloe Vera is that Aloe Vera is a different
plant than Cape Aloe and the gel from the inside of the Aloe Vera leaves
are made into a liquid to drink to help soothe and heal the body's
internal mucosal lining. When applied topically, Aloe Vera gel also
helps heal sunburns, burns, cuts and other irritated skin problems. A
study published in 2004 by Alimentary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, by
L. Langmead, looked at the effect of Aloe Vera on patients with
irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Forty-four (44) patients were given
either oral aloe bitters or a placebo. At least 30% of the study
participants on Aloe Vera showed either clinical remission, improvement
or a positive response compared with only 1% of patients on the placebo.
It is thought that taking Aloe Vera internally for 4 weeks may reduce
symptoms of IBS.
