Key Ingredients
This product is a combination of quality African aloe and prickly pear. Aloe Vera is a cactus-like plant that has been traditionally used for its therapeutic effects. It is popular both topically to assist with skin concerns such as sunburns and orally for digestive support. Prickly pear cactus, also known as nopal, is a plant traditionally used in Mexican and Mexican-American culture for culinary and therapeutic purposes.
Benefits of Aloe Vera & Prickly Pear™
• Promotes Digestive Health
Aloe Vera & Prickly Pear™ may offer digestive support to individuals who suffer from stomach problems. Aloe vera has been used for several digestive issues including constipation. The compound, barbaloin, is the main laxative component of aloe vera. Some studies have shown that it may also assist people dealing with inflammatory bowel disease. People taking aloe vera reported improved relief in some of their symptoms such as abdominal cramps and pain.
• Supports Healthy Blood Sugar Levels
Prickly pear cactus can be part of a healthy diet. In Mexico, it is traditionally used to support healthy blood sugar levels. There is research that has suggested it may assist in decreasing blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. Nopal’s ability to promote lower sugar levels in the blood may be due to the absorption of water-soluble dietary fiber content interrupting absorption of glucose in the intestine and showing reduced blood glucose levels after ingestion.
