AloeAdvance’s effect on the Digestive System



Aloe Vera has been known for centuries as an excellent treatment for skin ailments (sunburn, rashes, cuts and dry skin). What you might not know is that Aloe has many remarkable properties that can help your general wellbeing. The Aloe in AloeAdvanced has actually has been used to help people with digestive issues.


Eating a healthy diet will go a long way towards keeping your digestive tract healthy and functioning properly. But, it’s not always easy to know exactly what is in the food you eat and this can result in abnormally high levels of toxins and a build up.


Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder that affects the large intestine (colon). Irritable bowel syndrome commonly causes cramping, abdominal pain, bloating gas, diarrhea and constipation. Despite these uncomfortable signs and symptoms, IBS doesn't cause permanent damage to your colon. Irritable bowel syndrome can be caused by a gradual buildup of unabsorbed food substances on the lining of the colon. This buildup becomes worse over time and will eventually prevent nutrients from being absorbed. This problem is unlikely to correct itself and can cause nutrient deficiency. Nutrient deficiency is a major cause of chronic fatigue.


How does AloeAdvanced Help?


Many sufferers have found that one of the benefits of Aloe Vera is that it assists in the body’s process to breakdown the build up. It is should be noted that this is a gradual process and Aloe Vera juice should be taken daily for several weeks. For those who do not have a severe case of colon buildup, a daily regiment of AloeAdvance alone should be sufficient to gently and gradually break down and loosen the buildup, aiding your body’s natural cleansing mechanisms.


Aloe Vera can help your body recover from the effects of colon buildup and a daily regiment will certainly go a long way towards preventing this from ever happening to you but the best form of prevention is a combination of AloeAdvanced and diet change. However, the benefits of AloeAdvanced go beyond this. Establishing a daily regiment of AloeAdvanced may also improve your general wellbeing by detoxifying your blood stream and by aiding in the healing of any stomach ulcers or lesions and Aloe Vera is so gentle that very few people experience any side effects.

Chemical vs. Natural – which is more effective when it comes to my Insomnia?


I get this question a lot. Friends and colleges who take Ambien on a daily basis versus those who are afraid to get on any kind of possible addicting medication,  then there those who have enjoyed a natural option to getting a restful nights sleep – the organic way.

So let’s look into which is best for you, Ambien or AloeRest

What is Ambien?
Ambien is a sedative, also called a hypnotic. It affects chemicals in your brain that may become unbalanced and cause sleep problems (insomnia). Ambien is used for the short-term treatment of insomnia (difficulty falling or staying asleep). This medication causes relaxation to help you fall asleep. Ambien may be habit-forming and should be used only by the person it was prescribed for by a doctor for the amount of time directed, which is normally 4-5 weeks at a time. Ambien can cause side effects that may impair your thinking or reactions. You may still feel sleepy the morning after taking the medication. When you decide to stop taking Ambien you may feel withdrawal symptoms which include behavior changes, stomach pain, muscle cramps, nausea, vomiting, sweating, anxiety, panic, tremors, and seizure (convulsions). Insomnia symptoms may also return after you stop taking this medication.
Think that’s all? Nope.
Serious side effects:
·         depressed mood, thoughts of hurting yourself;
·         unusual thoughts, risk-taking behavior, decreased inhibitions, no fear of danger;
·         anxiety, aggression, feeling restless or agitated;
·         hallucinations, confusion, loss of personality.
Less serious Ambien side effects may include:
·         daytime drowsiness, dizziness, weakness, feeling "drugged" or light-headed;
·         lack of coordination;
·         amnesia, forgetfulness;
·         vivid or abnormal dreams;
·         nausea, constipation;
·         stuffy nose, sore throat;
·         headache, muscle pain; or
·         blurred vision.

So what is in Ambien?
Ambien CR contains zolpidem tartrate, a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic of the imidazopyridine class. Ambien CR (zolpidem tartrate extended-release tablets) is available in 6.25 mg and 12.5 mg strength tablets for oral administration. Chemically, zolpidem is N,N,6-trimethyl-2-p-tolylimidazo[1,2-a] pyridine-3-acetamide L-(+)-tartrate (2:1)
Translation:  ALL CHEMICALS… YUCK!
