Sustain your health with Aloe ferox

Not much thought is given to the immune system until we fall ill. However, to be truly healthy and to ensure our immunity is strong enough to help us recover when we are ill, we need to look after our immunity every single day.

Our immune system protects us not only from bacteria and viruses but also from cancers, aging, pollutants and auto-immune diseases. These enemies are found in our genetics and our environment, which make them nearly impossible to avoid in everyday life. However, with a strong immune system, we can lower our risk of falling prey to their effects on our bodies.

One of our natural immune-boosting sources is the Aloe Ferox plant, which grows abundantly in SA. Polysaccharide gel, found in the Aloe Ferox plant, has shown in UV radiation and HIV studies to increase the development of both macrophage cells (bacteria-fighting cells) and T cells (specialised white blood cells). Macrophage cells fight off bacterial and viral invaders and are our first line of defence, while T cells scan our cells for abnormalities or infection and destroy the affected areas while triggering antibodies to help neutralise the threat.

As we get older our immunity weakens due to a lack of communication between these macrophage cells and a slower production of T cells. The result is that we are more susceptible to infection and less responsive to vaccines and medication. It is vital to your health to fuel your immune system as you age.

Fortunately, just 15 ml of Simply Aloe’s Health Drink taken four times a day or as required, on its own or mixed with fruit juice, is the simple, natural and safe way to boost the immune system. Produced from the leaf and the inner gel of the Aloe Ferox plant, Simply Aloe’s Health Drink offers all the incredible immune-boosting properties of the indigenous plant in a juice.
