Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera

The Aloe Vera plant is believed by many to be one of nature's most incredible byproducts.  It has been used for many years around the house to treat cuts and burns, and has been incorporated into countless of commercial products such as lip-balm, shampoo, and sunscreen/sunburn lotions.  However, there exists a concentrated powdered extract from aloe called aloe mucilaginous polysaccharide. It is used to treat auto-immune disorders and diseases.   Particularly those in the digestive tract.
Aloe Mucilaginous Polysaccharides can be used to help treat diverticulitis.  Aloe mucilaginous polysaccharides are long-chain sugar molecules composed of individual mannose and glucose sugar molecules connected together — which have been attributed to subduing and reducing symptoms associated with UC.

The AMP molecule is extracted from the aloe plant in a controlled environment.  To get the highest refinement of AMP, lyophilization must be used to preserve the varying sizes of molecules that contain these potent healing properties.  Unfortunately, there are few manufacturers that offer the freeze-dried extracted form of AMP as it is expensive to manufacture.   To learn more about lyophilization, read this article: Processing of Aloe Mucilaginous Polysaccharides. 
SEROVERA® AMP 500 is currently the only vendor of freeze-dried AMP.

Points to Remember

• Diverticulosis occurs when small pouches, called diverticula, bulge outward through weak spots in the colon (large intestine).
• The pouches form when pressure inside the colon builds, usually because of constipation.
• Most people with diverticulosis never have any discomfort or symptoms.
• The most likely cause of diverticulosis is a low-fiber diet because it increases constipation and pressure inside the colon.
• For most people with diverticulosis, eating a high-fiber diet is the only treatment needed.
• You can increase your fiber intake by eating these foods: whole grain breads and cereals; fruit like apples and peaches; vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, spinach, carrots, asparagus, and squash; and starchy vegetables like kidney beans and lima beans.
• Diverticulitis occurs when the pouches become infected or inflamed and cause pain and tenderness around the left side of the lower abdomen.
