Aloe Vera juice -- Question :Re: side effects - concern HELP please

[Guest guest]

Jan,

My very favorite place to get most over the counter supplements

because of it's lower cost, nice selection and they are

knowledgeable is Super Supplements. The stores are mainly in

Washington state, but many use the mail order feature.

A personal note, Ricci King (wutsername) moderator of abmd and our

WA group and also the TACA co-ordinator here in WA is the managers

at the Renton Super Supplement store, which is the store that ships

the mail order products. So if you decide to order from there ask if

she's around. She tends to stock extra things for our ASD kids and

is extremely knowledgeable about them. When I have a question, she's

where I go. One of the biggest things (good but confusing) with

Super Supplements is the large variety of choices....it overwhelmes

me sometimes. There's like 10 different Aloe juices to choose

from...that's where I turn to Ricci in choosing for our children.

Supersup.com

Make sure and check the Health Notes section doing a search on aloe

as there are restrictions before using.

Lily of the desert is carried at Super Supplements as well as in the

Fred Meyer Health Foods section. Super Supplements carries a bigger

variety. From Supersup.com click on Brands " Lily of the Desert " and

you will also find good info, especially under Aloe story.

Here's the Link:

You don't use much Aloe, just 1-2 tbsp in the Recharge (Lemon

Recharge is what's in my " medicine cabinet " as it doesn't stain as

bad if they throw it up..I get it at Fred Meyer healthfood section

as well). Only use the Aloe for a day or two as it can have a

laxative affect...but it does a good job of settling an upset

stomach. I was taught as soon as possible after throwing up,

administer a tbsp of the mix...don't overwhelm the system..just take

it slow. Like 5 min later another spoonful...over-dueing will cause

herxing. An oz or two will take a 1/2 hour-1 hour to get down...they

may throw-up again, administer again...it generally subsides within

a short period of time. My extended family had called me with one

particularly bad flu episode and had a big turn around...they swear

by it now. I personally put a scoop of Ambrotose in my mix as well.

Our Herbalist taught us a trick for lowering the temp very naturally

as well...I'll have to search this group to see if we've posted it

on this group. If not I'll copy our post from the WA group so you'll

have it too.
