Aloe-Vera-And-Immune-System -Discover How its Natural Chemical Compounds Help



Aloe-Vera-And-Immune-System – How are they related?

Many health conscious people find supplementing their diets with all natural Aloe Vera gel very beneficial. The inner gel of the Aloe Vera plant is rich in vitamins, minerals, and enzymes that help promote a healthy immune system and may possibly repair damaged cells.


What Is In Aloe Vera And How Does It Help The Immune System?

Aloe Vera contains Long Chain Carbohydrate Molecules that help support the immune system. Research has shown that Aloe Vera contains powerful antioxidants, immune system boosters and natural chemical compounds, which were proven to possess a variety of potent medicinal properties.

Aloe Vera has strong anti-bacterial, anti-fungal as well as anti-viral properties. Being a succulent with watery innards that could easily harbor bacteria if exposed the Aloe Vera contains large amounts long chain sugars called mucopolysaccharides(MSP's for short) that help fight off microbial invasion. These Polysaccharides are essential in helping heal damaged cells, and something that people stop developing on their own after adolescence.

Our immune system tries to keep trillions of cells in our bodies protected from diseases-causing toxins, free radicals, viruses, bacterial, fungi and other harmful agents. At times, though, our immune system gets overwhelmed. Our bodies get sick, often because of free radical damage. But did you know that there are ways through which we can boost the immune system naturally?


What Is A Free Radicle?

A free radical is an unstable atom with an unpaired electron. When a free radical comes in contact with a stable atom, it steals the electron it needs from the stable atom. This leaves the once stable atom irreparably damaged and prone to succumb to disease.

Antioxidants counteract free radicals. They have an extra electron that they can share with free radicals. Because of this ability, they are able to prevent free radicals from attacking healthy atoms or cell.

Aloe-Vera is rich in antioxidants and other body building nutrients.

How Best Can an Antioxidant Be Described And What Role Does It Actually Play?


An antioxidant is a vitamin, a mineral, an enzyme, or phytonutrient (a plant nutrient) or a food. They have the ability to blind free radicals and neutralize them. In reality, an antioxidant pairs up that electron and stops that dangerous chain reaction of events.

We have had antioxidants for years but now we have got super antioxidants that everyone should be taking.

An antioxidant with which many people are familiar with is Vitamin E. This antioxidant works to prevent free radicals damage that can cause cancer or heart disease. By taking Vitamin E we are helping to protect ourselves from these dreaded disease.

Taking Aloe actually makes antioxidants such as Viamin C and E work better. Research indicates that aloe increases the effectiveness of these free radical fighting vitamins because of its blood enhancing abilities. These vital nutrients are able to reach the most remote cells via this super charged blood cell free way. The ability to improve the capabilities of the blood stream bodes well for cancer fighting herb remedies, allowing them to target tumors with exreme accuracy.

The polysaccharides or long-chain carbohydrates in Aloe have an amazing ability to pass through the stomach and digestive tract and move into the circulatory system without being digested by the enzyme systems in the human digestive tract. They are absorbed by a process called endocytosis and taken up into the cell intact. These mannose-containing molecules are then extruded into the circulatory system, where they are able to fulfill their immune system supporting functions.

Aloe Vera is an arsenal of special healing compounds shown to have more potent antioxidants activity than Vitamin E, one of nature’s powerful known antioxidants. Aloe’s Whole-leaf is strongly recommended in the treatment of immune deficiency disorders. A recent clinical study showed that a tablespoon of Aloe Vera juice taken twice a day could give your immune system the helping hand it needs.

Aloe Vera’s other Natural Compounds.

Besides these long chain sugars, Aloe Vera also contains powerful natural chemical compounds that possess a variety of potent medicinal properties. Some other natural compounds that are found in Aloe Vera are: catechins, glycerol, quinines, stilbenes and polyphenols among others.

Catechins: were discovered to be five times more potent as antioxidants than Vitamin C.

Polysaccharides: are highly potent anti-cancer and anti-bacterial plant compounds. They help block a mutated cell’s ability to stick to healthy cells to help stop the spread of cancer, and are especially effective against intracellular bacteria.

Quinones: are known for their anti-bacterial properties and also are strong oxidants.

Stilbenes: in plants defend these plants against fungi. Interestingly, stilbenes also maintain their anti-fungal properties even when ingested. They are also effective antioxidants

Polyphenols: were found to be far more potent as antioxidants than Vitamin E, considered one of the most powerful known antioxidants.

Aloe Vera is well researched and has long been used as a remedy, both topically and orally for many conditions. The body only needs a tablespoon of Aloe Vera Juice daily.

While big name corporations are catching on to the healing properties of aloe and are incorporating it into everything from disposable shaving blades to mouthwash, it is still in the pharmaceutical companies best interest to keep the population in the dark about the many healing secrets that this desert lily has.

You may ask,Other than from Aloe-Vera, where else can you find Vitamin E?

Vitamin E can be found in nuts, seeds, wholegrain, and also in polyunsaturated fats. However, we should not eat polyunsaturated fats such as canola oil or corn oil, since they can cause the formation of additional free radicals. The oil you should take in your body is extra-virgin olive oil (mono unsaturated fats).
