Benefits Of Aloe Vera Gelly


Lets have a look at the benefits of using Aloe Vera Gelly. Its 100% stabilised Aloe Vera Gel lubricates sensitive tissue safely and effectively as if its squeezed from the leaf itself. It absorbs quickly and calms irritated skin and helps to reduce scar formation.

For years Aloe Vera was used extensively to soothe minor skin irritations, cuts and sores, to stings and burns. Many households across the world kept a live Aloe Vera plant for first aid use and still do breaking open a leaf and spreading the inner layer directly onto the skin.
Forever Living Aloe Vera Gelly is specially prepared for topical application to moisturise, soothe and condition. Its a thick, translucent gel containing humectants and moisturisers. Readily absorbed by the skin, it soothes without staining clothes.
Research dating back as far as the 1930's has continually suggested that regular application of Aloe Vera will not only help promote faster healing but also reduce the burning, itching sensation that comes with burnt skin.

Thousands of Forever Living Customers use Aloe Vera Gelly to soothe burns from mild sunburn to serious scolds and burns. With the holiday season about to get underway, what more could you ask for in your wash bag from a health product.
This health product is popular with:
  •  Physiotherapists, who use it on skin to prepare the desired area prior to an ultrasonic treatment, or after electrolysis.
  • Hairdressers use the Aloe Vera Gelly around the hairline before perming and colouring hair to protect the scalp.
  • Suitable for people who are prone to eczema and psoriasis.
So the benefits of using this Natural Health Product are:

  • It Soothes Burns 
  • Can be used for Animals as well as Humans
  • Improves healing as well as reducing inflammation and itching
  • Cleaning up wounds and removing dead skin cells
  • Great for pressure sores as it is anti-microbial and kills most of the pathogenic bacteria that colonise the skin
  • Doesn't stain the clothes
So all in all a great all round health product that has multiple uses and can fit in your hand bag girls and boys.

My mental anguish by Steven Langdon



For those of you who regularly read my work over on E-Lites Vouchers you'll know I write mainly about the electronic cigarette industry, but that's not always the case.
See, I came across this opportunity and simply had to contribute a story. A story, that will help someone out there somewhere.

A long time ago, I suffered a bout of depression that would pretty much grip my life and shake it to its core foundation. I had nothing going for me, I had just lost a job and was desperately unhappy at the one that I had, and also had nothing much to look forward to in my personal life with the troubles I had going on at home. My girlfriend had decided she would take a gap year and travel the world, and left me to fend for us - hardly fair given I had to pay a mortgage in a pretty low end job; but she didn’t care much!
It was at this point that I turned to smoking cigarettes far more frequently than just the odd one outside the pub before a night out. I began to rely on them, more and more, and if I didn’t get a nicotine fix I'd begin to get increasingly restless. I realised that all the money that I should have been spending on real problems just as paying the bills etc., was being floundered in increasing quantities. 

It was around about this time that I came across electronic cigarettes; fascinating devices because they proclaimed to save me money at the same time as being healthier. I can tell you this, they worked. I saved lots of money, and cut out tobacco from my life for good (electronic cigarettes only have vapor with liquid nicotine, are legal indoors and contain no tobacco).

I had saved lots of money, was financially better off and healthier, and it was perhaps this fact that affected my mental health too. I had begun to feel positive again.
When my girlfriend came back from traveling, naturally she was skint. She came back and expected to walk back into my life and our house and it was something I wasn't ready for. I tried to make her understand, which she didn’t. we have not spoken since. I had tried to just give myself some space to think, but inadvertently ended up giving myself a new start in life. I had got myself into a position where this conflict, this tension, had boiled over but it ended up being just the trigger I needed. Post this, I have completely recovered my mental balance, and are beginning to enjoy my life once again.

There are many influential people I can think of and situations that have occurred that I can attribute this to but I would have to go back to the confrontation with my returning girlfriend, that was the trigger in me really getting myself together. Sometimes standing up for yourself, and revisiting past demons is what you need to do to overcome a sticky situation that you get yourself into mentally.

What Are The Benefits Of Forever Freedom

What is Forever Freedom ?

Forever Freedom is a breakthrough formula, that has combined the most complete range of nutrients on the market to date. This range of nutrients is essential for your body to maintain healthy joint function and mobility so great for sportsman and those that suffer aches and pains in the joints.
Common wear and tear problems in which the joint cartilage is gradually worn away, leading to pain and stiffness which affects a massive seven million people in the UK alone.
Forever Freedom contains about 85% of Aloe Vera Gel with vital extras including Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM (Methyl Sulfonyl Methane). As I have said in previous posts Aloe Vera Gel has anti-inflammatory benefits so supplies those benefits in this drink, as well as of course, nutrients and trace elements.
The star additives in this health product have to be the Glucosamine and Chondroitin, which isn't adequately replaced in most people after the age of 40.

                                                  What is Glucosamine?

Glucosamine is sourced from crustacean shells but is hypoallergenic, so can be taken by people with a shellfish allergy, and chondroitin is obtained from chicken cartilage. This is an important supplement because it provides the body with more of the basic ingredients needed to build new cartilage and maintain healthy joints

The Health Product

With all the above in mind there is obviously a huge market for this product, which should really primarily be used as a preventative measure which will hopefully spare people the need for surgery in later life.
Certain groups of people are more likely to develop osteoarthritis:

  • serious sportsmen and women
  • people who have a family history of osteoarthritis
  • obese and heavy manual workers
The feedback from this group drinking Forever Freedom suggests that its working and giving many a much better quality of life.
Glucosamine and Chondroitin can be bought in tablet form quite cheaply, but with all Forever Living products it's about the Quality and Effectiveness. The active ingredients are delivered quickly and in good amounts because of Aloe Vera's ability to improve absorption from the gut. So therefore Forever Living see demonstratable effects in just a few weeks compared to several months with lesser health products.

Health Benefits Of Bee Propolis

How does Bee Propolis help us as a 100% natural health product?

When we think of Bees, Honey and Pollen are foremost in our thoughts. The Pollen is naturally floating around in the air and carried by the Bees, the Honey is made by the Bees hard at work and the Bees are hard at work collecting. Another important substance we don't think about is Propolis, a sticky resin collected by the Bees and metabolise the Propolis, using it as a sealant for small gaps within the hive. This is so effective that the interior of the beehive is said to be safer than most operating rooms.
Believe it or not as a Food, Propolis has a 5,000 year old history. The Assyrians and the Greeks used propolis to help maintain good health.
Forever Bee Propolis is fortified with Royal Jelly and an excellent way to help support the body's natural defences.


  • Its 100% Natural 
  • No added preservatives or artificial colours
  • An excellent natural food form
  • Loaded with nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids 
  • Natural immune support
  • Helps maintain a healthy respiratory system


As with all supplements consult a doctor before use of any referenced product for medicinal purposes.

Aloe Vera in Dentistry

Aloe Vera uses in Dentistry are multiple.

  • Its extremely helpful in the treatment of gum disease
  • It reduces the bleeding of the gums
  • It is powerfully antiseptic in gum pockets
  • Its antifungal properties help greatly in the problem of denture stomatitis
  • Cracked and split corners of the mouth
  • The treatment of cold sores
Believe it or not it can also be used in root canal treatment as a sedative dressing, healing promoter and file lubricant.

The various forms of Aloe Vera used in dentistry are:


  1. the Forever Bright Toothpaste
  2. the Aloe Vera Gelly for healing promotion
  3. Aloe & Propolis hand cream which helps to counteract frequent hand washing and the wearing of latex gloves
  4. Aloe activator spray which is excellent for throat infections, painful erupting wisdom teeth and joint pains
  5. the Aloe Vera Gel drink is used in conjunction with any topical treatment for skin lesions, joint lesions and, in itself, as an amelioration in irritable bowel syndrome.

The juice has great all round uses, its a strong detoxifying agent and if used in conjunction with the planned removal of mercury amalgams acts as a scavenging agent for mercury, a neuro-sedative and immune enhancer. As a routine general tonic it generally makes people feel better who are otherwise not well enough but not frankly ill.
It is however important to choose an Aloe Vera product that is concentrated, pure, stabilised and preferably grown organically. A seal of approval of the International Aloe Science Council marked on products will guarantee these necessities above.
This is where Forever Living products come in as they hold the seal of approval, they grow their Aloe Vera organically and keep it as pure as can be.

Pregnancy and Aloe Vera

A short post on Aloe Vera and Pregnancy and some health products that may help along the way.
Please remember the below are only suggestion guidelines only. I do not make medical claims nor does Forever Living and would always advise Doctor or Midwife consultation first:

When pregnant there is always a need for extra nutrients before and after to help support the health of both yourself and the baby (foetus) which is becoming more important now due to the reduced nutrient content of our modern diets. It has long been recognised that a deficiency in Folic Acid can increase the likelihood of developing a congenital disorder. A hugh trail  that was set up by Medical Research Council backed this up quite dramatically. That is why it is important for Women to take 400mg of Folic Acid - if possible from conception until 12 weeks pregnant. Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids from fish are vital for the formation of new tissues particularly the development of the brain, nervous system and retina with research showing enhanced effects in IQ and learning.

Suggested Health Products For Pregnant Women 

That Sleeplessness - Weak Aloe Blossom Tea made with boiled water and then cooled. The fennel, Camomile and Aloe Blossom are very soothing. One tea bag will make approximately 2 pints of herbal tea).








Those Stretch Marks - Massage with Aloe Moisturising lotion or Aloe Gelly daily in the early stages of pregnancy to keep the skin moisturised and lubricated. If stretch marks are starting to appear, massage with Alpha E Factor.







Preparing nipples for breast feeding - prepare the nipples prior to breast-feeding by applying Aloe Vera Gelly to the nipple area. Apply liberally before and after feeding. If the nipples do crack wipe with activator on cotton wool before and after each feed then apply Propolis Cream to prevent infection. Alpha E Factor contains bisabolol, which is a soothing essential oil so can also be applied to sore and cracked nipples.




Headaches and Contractions - Occasionally headaches in pregnancy may be a sign of a more serious complication and should be checked out by a doctor or midwife. Providing they are satisfied, the Aloe Heat Lotion gently massaged on the forehead and temples will penetrate deeply and can help to relieve the inflammation causing the headaches. Stress tension in the neck and shoulders can also be eased with the heat lotion. When contractions start massage heat lotion into the lower back to ease the pain.




Suggested Health Products For The Baby

Nappy Rash - wash the baby in diluted Aloe Liquid Soap. This product is a no tears formula so if it does splash in the baby's eyes it will not cause discomfort. Dry baby's skin and in severe cases apply Activator on cotton wool to the nappy rash. Leave to dry for a minute and then apply Propolis Creme. The Propolis is a natural antibiotic so may prevent any infection from occurring.
NB Always apply a little of the cream and activator to a small area as a tester if this is the first ever application.

Teething - Aloe Vera Gelly can be applied directly on to the gums. It will soothe inflamed gums and is very cooling. It is perfectly safe to apply several times per day and will cause the baby no harm if accidentally swallowed.




Cradle Cap - Wash the baby's head with Aloe Liquid Soap and then massage the Aloe Gelly into the scalp and leave overnight. You ay need to do this a couple of times per week before the cradle cap is all gone. In very severe cases mix an equal amount of Aloe Gelly with virgin olive oil and once again leave overnight, then wash with Aloe Liquid Soap. All of the health products are fairly concentrated and so only a small amount is required.
