Bad breath problem?


Bad breath (halitosis) can have many causes, including bacteria in the mouth, stomach and intestine problems, sluggish bowels, sinus or throat infections, certain foods, tobacco, and alcohol. Begin by eliminating the causes of bad breath and by taking steps to include dietary, lifestyle, and other practices which lead to fresher and cleaner breath.
An improper diet can lead to digestive problems and a deficiency in good intestinal floral can cause bad breath. Dental problems such as gum disease and tooth abscesses are often the cause of bad breath. Practice good oral hygiene - brush and floss your teeth regularly, and scrape your tongue.

These products may be helpful. Aloe Vera Gel, which is high in soluble and insoluble fiber, is beneficial for intestinal health and those with constipation problem. Forever Active Probiotic contains 6 strains of beneficial bacteria that help to restore a healthy balance of intestinal floral. Use Forever bright Toothgel daily, which is helpful in reducing plaque accumulation

Healthy Begins in the Kidney


The kidneys are bean-shaped organs located near the middle of the back, just below the rib cage. The kidneys detoxify by filtering the blood, removing excess water and water soluble toxins which are then passed out in the urine. Kidneys maintain electrolyte balance by regulating the amount of sodium, chloride, sulfate, phosphate, and hydrogen substances in our body. It is important to drink enough water so that impurities are sufficiently passed out. Dark colour and smelly urine may be indicated that a person is not drinking enough water.

Having unhealthy diet and lifestyle, medical conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol increase the risk of having kidney disease. The followings are the common kidney diseases:
• kidney stones may cause extreme pain in the back or at the side of the body. Other symptoms may include fever and chills, vomit and the production of bloody, smelly and cloudy urine.
• Chronic kidney disease (CkD) refers to gradual loss of kidney function which may lead to permanent kidney failure and increase the risk of having stroke or heart attack. Most people do not have any severe symptoms until their kidney disease is advanced.
The symptoms may include hands or feet swelling, fatigue, itchy or numb skin, muscle cramps and poor appetite, nausea and vomiting.
• Pyelonephritis is kidney infection usually caused by bacteria that have traveled to the kidney from the bladder. The symptoms may include lower side and mid-back pain, fever, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, shivering and painful urination.

TIPS FOR HEALTHY KIDNEYS
• Drink at least eight glasses a day. Healthy kidneys need lots of water to “cleanse” them of impurities and of metabolic wastes.
• Reduce salty foods such as canned foods, fast foods and added sauces which increase kidney’s burden in excretion.
• Reduce alcohol intake as it can reduce the kidneys’ function.
• Don’t control your urge to urinate.
• Having a balanced diet is vital for kidney health.
Control medical conditions such as diabetes, high cholesterol and high blood pressure which are leading
causes of kidney disease.

Health Begins in the Colon


The colon (large intestine) acts like a sewer in your body. If it is not cleansed, the waste throughout the body cannot get out adequately. Over time, your colon may become unhealthy and lose its ability to properly eliminate the waste materials from your digestive tract. This can be due to a combination of the following: lack of exercise, poor diet, stress, medication, and a variety of other factors.

When the human colon becomes less active, the body does not eliminate its waste materials as effectively. When the elimination process is not functioning properly, deposits of waste matter build up along the wall of your colon or in the pockets of the colon. These wastes remain in your body for days. People who are constipated can be carrying more of this toxic fecal matter, which is continually poisoning their body and organs.

These are three common colon diseases:

Colon polyps – growth on the surface of the colon. Most polyps are not dangerous but some become cancerous over time.
Diverticulitis – inflamed diverticula, where pockets form in large intestine. When food gets caught in these pockets, the tissues became inflamed and irritated.
Colon cancer – According to National Cancer Registry of Malaysia, colon cancer is the most common cancer in men and third most
common cancer in women. Statistics from Singapore Cancer Society shows very similar ranking; colon cancer is the most common cancer in men, and second most common cancer in women.

Risk factors for common colon diseases include:
• Over age 50
• Overweight and lack of exercise
• Eating a high fat, low fiber diet
• Have had polyps before or have a family member with polyps
• Have a family history of colon cancer.

Tips for healthy colon:
• Eat high fiber, low fat diet
• Exercise regularly
• Do not smoke
• Eat food rich in antioxidant
• Practise regular bowel habits

Forever Products That Helps to Promote Healthy Colon

• Soluble and insoluble fiber help to facilitate bowel movement.
• Rich in saponins, a natural cleansing agent that are helpful in cleansing digestive tract.
• Antraquinone complex helps in reducing colon inflammation, and acemannans are helpful in improving the immune system.

• Provides the minerals, proteins, amino acids, enzymes, antioxidantsand chlorophyll that the body needs.
• Wheat grass contains many alkaline minerals which help to facilitate digestive system to expel heavy metals and toxins.
• Taken together with Aloe Vera Gel, this is helpful for those with constipation.




• Patented formula with 6 strains of probiotics to counter bad bacteria growth.
• Patented encapsulation technology protects the probiotics and releases them only after they reach the intestine.
• Works in tandem with Aloe Vera Gel that provides an ideal environment for probiotics to grow.



• Perfect blend of high antioxidant fruit juice that include pomegranate, blueberry, blackberry, mangosteen, pear, raspberry
and grape seed extract.
• Contains a multitude of polyphenol antioxidants including ellagic acid, tannins, oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC), anthocyanins,
proanthocyanidins, xanthones, catechins, resveratrol, punicalagins,quercetin and gallic acid.
• The antioxidants help to reduce free radicals damage thus providing protection for the colon / digestive tract cells.

If you are like most people, you are likely to have a modern lifestyle which does not emphasize a good diet and exercise program.An appropriate supplementation can be very important to good intestinal and overall health. (Explanation: About 2/3 (two third) of all immune cells reside in the gastrointestinal tract; these are often called Gut Associated Lymphoid Tissue (GALT). These cells can only function effectively in a friendly intestinal environment). Therefore a healthy intestine contributes to better immunity directly).

Healthy Starts with Aloe Vera Gel


As we approach the festival season it is a good time to celebrate our No.1 product and the foundation of Forever Living Products - Aloe Vera Gel, a product that accounts for 50% of the company’s turnover.
As we all know it is not sold on its taste but for its many benefits.

It is an excellent source of micronutrients and trace elements with an anti-inflammatory and pain-killing action and an ability to balance the immune system through its long chain sugar acemannan, giving the consumers an increased sense of wellbeing. This ancient plant usually grows in areas rich in minerals which it absorbs and presents to us in a bioavailable form. After drinking the gel for a few weeks most
people notice a tangible improvement to skin , hair and nails, as these structures are provided with more of their basic building blocks.

The gel should be refrigerated after opening and taken on an empty stomach first thing in the morning so it can enter the small bowel relatively unaffected by stomach acid and enzymes. Here, this important
polysaccharide can be absorbed whole by certain specialised cells delivering it to the blood stream just as it was in the yellow bottle and just as it was in the plant.

Drinking the gel alters the action of the gut as it speeds up gut transit time whilst smoothing out irregular contractions, a very property if you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome. Aloe vera will improve the absorption of food, especially protein, but I also believe it may enhance the absorption of certain drugs. People often ask me how much they should take and I think this is down to individual experimentation, usually varying between 100-150 mls per day. For children and the elderly the requirement is less, remembering that a child of 12 takes an adult portion. As a rule of thumb, a six year-old will take half and a three year old a quarter and so on. I do not advice it to be given to infants under one year.

“Why should Customers buy our gel as it is one of the more expensive varieties on the market? The answer is simple. It’s about quality and the fact that it works!”

There are several cheaper products available and these tend to be of the whole leaf variety rather than using the filleting process that we adopt. I am convinced that our method of production is superior for the following reasons set out in the table opposite.

There’s no space to mention everything about this quite exceptional succulent but my flyers ‘Aloe the Facts’ and ‘Top 10 Reasons to Drink Aloe Vera Gel’ will provide further details.

Incidentally, I’m told that it’s an excellent cure for a hangover! So cheers!

The Known Constituents of Aloe Vera and Their Beneficial Properties


The table below shows the identified constituents of Aloe Vera and their properties: -


CONSTITUENTSPROPERTIES
Amino Acids (20 out of the total 22 types, including 7 types of essential amino acids)Amino acids are the basic building blocks of protein which are used by the body for production of all sorts of cells and tissues.
Anthraquinones (aloe emodin, aloe ulcine, aloetic acid, aloin, anthtacine, anthranol, barbaloin, chrysophanic acid, ethereal oil, ester of cinnamonic acid, isobarbaloin and resistannol).In the relatively small concentrations found in aloe vera together with the gel fraction, anthraquinones exhibit antibacterial, antifungal & antiviral activities. They also display analgesic (painkilling) properties and can stimulate wound-healing. On their own, anthraquinones are generally laxatives and may be toxic in higher concentrations.
Enzymes (aliiase, amylase, alkaline phosphatase, bradykinase, carboxypeptidase, catalase, cellulose, creatine phosphokinase, lipase, nucleotidase, peroxidase, protease)Generally, enzymes are catalyst which aid in our metabolism processes, helping in the breakdown of food sugars and fats, aiding digestion and enhancing nutrients absorption.
Hormones (auxins & gibberellins)These plant hormones are known to display wound-healing and anti-inflammatory properties.
LigninLignin is a cellulose-based substance which has penetrating ability and can act as a carrier for other nutrients and components, hence enabling deeper penetration for better effect.
Minerals (calcium, chromium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium, phosphorus, sodium and zinc)Minerals are essential for good health and are generally required for the thousands of processes in our body. Some of the minerals are also needed for building stronger bones and teeth.
Monosaccharides (glucose & fructose)Sugars.
Polysaccharides (acemannans, glucomannans, mannose, polymannose)Display immune-stimulant properties, ie. They are believed to be helpful in stimulating production of antibodies and white blood cells. Also exert anti-inflammatory actions which can be helpful in alleviating rheumatism/arthritis and other inflammatory conditions.
Salicylic AcidAn aspirin-like compound which has analgesic action.
SaponinsSaponins is a soap-like substance that can help in the cleansing of body tissues and is midly antiseptic.
Sterols (Campesterol, lupeol, beta-sitosterol)Basically anti-inflammatory agents. Lupeol also possesses antiseptic and analgesic properties.
Vitamins (A, B-Complexes, C, E, Choline, Folic Acid)Vitamins A, C & E are antioxidants that can help neutralize free radicals. B Complexes and Choline are involved in the metabolism of amino acids. B12 and folic acid are needed for production and development of red blood cells.

Aloe Vera: The Miracle Plants?


Referred to as the "Wand of Heaven" by American Indians, and called "The Doctor In A Pot" by Christopher Columbus, aloe vera is certainly not an ordinary garden plant. 

Records of the effective use of aloe vera for health and medical prposes have been traced back as early as 3,500 years ago in th Ebers Papyrus, an early Egyptian wiritng of the 1500s BC. Pedianos Dioscorides, a famed Greek physician who lived some 2,000 years ago also wrote in his medical manuscript, lengthy descriptions of the use of aloe vera for various medical conditions, both externally and internally.


Legend also has it that Alexander the Great conquered the island of Madagascar on the advice of the great philosopher, Aristotle solely for the purpose of obtaining suffient supply of the plant to rub on the wounds of his soldiers. Even Cleopatra was said to ahve attributed her beauty to the frequent use of aloe vera. Based on the above and various other historiccal documentation from different parts of the world, it is without doubt tha aloe vera is one of the most popularly used herb in traditional treatments.


In the modern world, aloe vera is perhaps most commonly known for its potency as a healing and soothing agent for cuts and burns. However, researchers believe that there is more in store for us in aloe vera than just aiding would healing.

Anecdotal evidence gathered from testimonials by satisfied users and laborary experiments suggests that aloe vera can be helpful in treating or relieving a wide range of human ailments ranging from inflammatory and skin conditions to gastrointestinal and immune system related problems.


Since the "rediscovery" of aloe vera in the 1910s, a wide range of researches has been conducted all over the world on various species of aloe. While no single element has been conclusively identified to be responsible for treatment of any ailments, generally most researchers believe that the synergistic effect of the hundreds of compounds found in aloe vera is responsible for the positive effects noted from applying and consuming aloe vera.


A general analysis of aloe vera shows that it contains over 200 nutritional compounds which include 20 types of amino acids, 12 antraquinones, 12 vitamins, 8 enzymes, 20 minerals, 4 plant steroids, monosaccharides, polysaccharides, saponins, salicylic acid, lignin and hormones. The synergistic actions of these compounds are believed to provide aloe vera its anti-inflammatory, wound healing and immuno-stimulant properties which in turn help strengthen our body's own healing and defense system to overcome various medical conditions.


Note:The above article makes no claim of cure of any particular condition whatsoever from the use or consumption of ale vera. the intent of facts above is for information only.
