Ingredients

• 200 g organic aloe vera gel (from inner fillet)
• Juice of ½ yellow lemon (high in limonoids)
• 300 ml alkaline water (pH 8.5)
• 1 tsp Manuka honey (UMF 10+)
• 1 cm fresh ginger root (metabolic activator)

Preparation

• Gel extraction: Select mature basal leaves. Rinse with diluted apple cider vinegar, then carefully scoop the transparent gel.
• Blending: Use a cold blender (under 40°C). Add in this sequence: water → aloe → ginger → lemon → honey. Blend gently to minimize oxidation.
• Storage: Transfer to amber glass, refrigerate at 4°C. Keeps for 5 days. (Optional: 1 drop grapefruit seed extract can extend shelf life.)

Consumption Protocol

• Dosage: Take 15 ml (1 tbsp) on an empty stomach in the morning and another before bed.
• Cycle: Use for 10 days, pause for 5, then repeat.
• Method: Drink with warm water and wait 30 minutes before eating. Add probiotics at dinner for greater gut balance.

Precautions

• Not suitable during active Crohn’s disease.
• May interact with diuretics or diabetes medications.
• Best avoided during menstruation due to its emmenagogue action.
• Always test tolerance first (start with 1 tsp).

Final Note

Properly prepared and consumed, aloe vera is a safe, natural way to improve digestion and metabolism. With consistency, it may bring noticeable and lasting wellness benefits.
