Aloe Vera and Arthritis

Aloe Vera is thought to have an effect on both osteo and rheumatoid arthritis due to its anti-inflammatory properties.

Dr Atherton a renowned GP writes in The Essential Aloe Vera:

"For treating rheumatoid arthritis and asthma, it is probable that polysaccharides in the gel are responsible for reducing the inflammation, reducing the need for powerful anti-inflammatory drugs and inhaled steroids."

He has a case study,

"....Alison is a delightful young woman whom I have treated for fifteen years. She suffers with Stills disease or juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and has been receiving a variety of potent conventional treatments which include high dose non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. One day she came into the surgery requesting that she needed more anti-inflammatories to control pain and stiffness, but couldn't take any more because of the abdominal pain these caused. Catch 22. I didn't know what else to suggest so I said, "You wouldn't like to try a sort of whacky cactus juice that's supposed to have a natural anti-inflammatory effect as well as settling stomachs would you?"

"After a few weeks we were both thrilled to see an improvement. Her abdominal pain had disappeared, she was in less pain and she certainly looked better and happier. Over subsequent months she started to reduce her NSAID level until, eighteen months down the road, she only takes about half the amount she used to, still with no side effects.

Linda Gillespie also says she has heard stories from all sorts of people who've been helped by this natural remedy....

"One music teacher, who has been taking traditional medication for arthritis for years, is now able to play the piano without pain after taking Aloe Vera".
