LifAloe

Your products and packs will now be even more powerful when you supplement with one of hottest new products--LifAloe™.

With Unicity's Aloe Technology™, LifAloe enhances the bioavailability of other nutrients.* LifAloe contains five different forms of aloe vera (know as "nature's miracle plant"), which has been used for thousands of years, not only as an external fortifier, but an internal fortifier as well.

Internally, aloe vera helps the body assimilate other nutrients through two methods. First, it is an excellent cleanser. As aloe vera cleanses your digestive tract, it allows other nutrients to become more readily absorbed and utilized. Second, aloe vera helps to stimulate receptors that are embedded in your immune system. These energized receptors then increase the action of the immune system and the absorption of other nutrients. Nature's miracle plant creates a spectrum of biologically active solids as it grows. LifAloe captures the most potent forms of these solids.*

All of this is done by combining five separate forms of aloe vera, including a proprietary Aloe Polysaccharides Concentrate, a patented molecular extract. The aloe vera utilized in the Enrich Aloe Complex is harvested and stabilized in record time.

Faster processing means higher nutritional value and increased aloe solids count. This helps make LifAloe's biological activity and potency unsurpassed.*

LifAloe utilizes aloe vera organically grown in the prime climates of South America and Asia. The rich soil in these two regions, combined with superior harvesting and processing, produces a unique aloe plant that retains more of its natural potency.

RESEARCH BRIEF

Aloe, native to Africa, is also known as "lily of the desert", the "plant of immortality", and the "medicine plant". The name was derived from the Arabic alloeh meaning "bitter" because of the bitter liquid found in the leaves. In 1500 B.C. Egyptians recorded use of the herbal plant in treating burns, infections and parasites. Ancient Greeks, Arabs and Spaniards have used the plant throughout the millennia. African hunters still rub the gel on their bodies to reduce perspiration and their scent. Extensive research since the 1930's has shown that the clear gel has a dramatic ability to heal wounds, ulcers and burns. Clinical research has shown that Aloe Vera may absorb intestinal pathogens and toxins. It may also be a potent prebiotic in promoting growth of friendly "good" colon bacteria which is required for good health. The plant is about 96% water. The rest of it contains active ingredients including essential oil, amino acids, minerals, vitamins, enzymes and glycoproteins. Many liquid health treatments are made, some combining aloe juice with other plants and herbs. The juice has been shown to be soothing to digestive tract irritations, such as colitis and peptic ulcers. As a food supplement, aloe is said to facilitate digestion, aid in blood and lymphatic circulation, as well as kidney, liver and gall bladder functions. Aloe contains at least three fatty acids that are helpful for the stomach, small intestine and colon. It naturally alkalizes digestive juices to prevent extreme digestive acidity - a common cause of indigestion. It may also help cleanse the digestive tract by exerting a soothing, balancing effect
