Aloe vera - information straight from an expert (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798586129994)

Aloe and its use can be called a myth. The myth of its miraculous healing powers, the plant of immortality and of eternal youth, it all dates back in history. However, this is still a myth today, in the age when science and technology are on the march. What could otherwise explain so much interest in aloe, both in sick and healthy humans? Of course, manufacturers who are willing to invest a lot of money in advertising for good business also get a lot of "credit" for inflating its effects. Modern myths are just products of marketing campaigns. On the other hand, some interesting effects of aloe are a scientifically confirmed reality. Conducted research shows that aloe, in certain pathological conditions, has promising therapeutic effects, which cannot be denied. Reality is also its long-term use in practice, huge amounts of aloe produced every year, and all the industry, which revolves around it. In short, we can summarize two indication areas where we recommend aloe: externally, in a gel form for skincare, and internally, in the form of a resin, for short-term treatment of constipation.All this is nicely presented in this book by Samo Kreft.Samo Kreft is a full professor at the Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Ljubljana, where he researches medicinal plants and other medicines of natural origin and lectures students of pharmacy. He also held professional positions at the European Medicines Agency in London. He has published more than 100 original scientific papers in renowned scientific journals.
