ACID REFLUX
I have had a problem with acid reflux for a very long time now, since my early twenties (I am now in my 40's - but I won't say which end of the 40's). Over the years it took less and less to set off an episode of this painful condition. Sugary foods, spicy foods, processed foods, crisps, chocolate and just about anything that wasn't bland. It had gotten so bad that I was considering medical intervention. I was suffering all day, every day, and lived on OTC antacids. I was concerned at the amount of antacids I was taking, as I worried that this would not be good for my liver or kidneys. I had spent years looking for a cure, or at least some relief from this condition. It was worse at night and I often woke up during the night, because I vomited up acid, burning my digestive system and throat into the bargain. I couldn't lean forward, as this would set it off. I was always having to watch myself. Certain foods had become a real problem, feeling stuck as it made its way to my stomach, especially white bread. I would have to sip water to help shift the food, and it was really painful. Then I got started on the Aloe Vera gel drinks. What a miracle! I have been taking the Berry Nectar for over a month now, and I no longer need antacids, I can pretty much eat what I want, and all the discomfort is gone. FLP’s Aloe Berry Nectar is now a permanent resident in my fridge, I wouldn't be without it.

ACNE
From my latter teenage years I had acne. Six months before my 21st birthday, I was introduced to Aloe Vera. After using the cream and drinking the Gel I was able to celebrate my 21st birthday with an almost total clearance of spots.

ACNE
I am an eighteen-year-old who has suffered with acne for the past three years. It has been so bad that I resorted to being prescribed courses of antibiotics to be taken throughout the winter. Although this did clear the acne up I wasn't allowed to take the tablets in the summer because of an adverse reaction with sunlight and by the following winter they were back with a vengeance. This winter my mother started me on Bee Propolis and Garlic Thyme tablets as well as Forever Freedom because I had a long-standing knee injury. I can honestly say that over the last two months I have noticed a big difference and I do not need to be persuaded to continue with the tablets.

ACNE ROSACEA
Having suffered from Acne Rosacea for seven years, I heard of Aloe Vera and decided to take it. The effect was immediate. Within days my skin condition eased greatly. Although not cured, I am very much a healthier person now that I am taking Aloe Vera. I must also mention my skin, which has always been, I felt, rather spotty & grotty. People have started to ask me if I'm using a new make-up. I'm not. The Aloe lotion is fantastic. It's the only moisturiser that's really worked on me and made a visual difference. Also, the gelly is brilliant for spots. One tiny dab and the spot heals quickly without leaving a mark.

ALLERGIES
My daughter Lydia has many allergies. She has a very poor appetite. She also found it difficult to sleep. She was always sick and had to take a lot of antibiotics. I was also worried about the amount of steroids she was taking. On the 25th April I started Lydia on Aloe Vera Gel and Bee Propolis. She was taking one ounce four times per day and two Bee Propolis a day. The first week she had diarrhoea and cramps in her stomach. Jennifer suggested we cut the amount of Gel down to 4 teaspoons a day, so I did and by the third week she was great. She hadn't had an attack of asthma and she was sleeping all night, her appetite has improved and her allergies. I am really delighted with the products as I was nearly going out of my mind with her. The difference in the child is great, her stomach is in perfect condition and her health has improved greatly. Lydia is a much more happy and healthy child.

ALOPECIA
On 17 September 2005 I was getting ready for a night out and went to style my hair. I rubbed in some wax and found that my hair was falling out. What was going on? I went to see my GP, who informed me that I had ‘alopecia’, a very rare disease of the body hair which ‘kills off’ hair follicles. He referred me to an NHS specialist for a precise diagnosis and advice. The waiting list for an appointment was eight weeks, which was far too long for an 18 year old to wait, so my parents agreed that I should see a private consultant. I was seen the following Monday afternoon. Pays to go private? The specialist told me that I had ‘alopecia arreata’ - general hair loss which he thought was caused by stress. He said there was nothing I could do and that it was unlikely my hair would grow back. I was so conscious about my appearance that I began to shave my head. My peers were very understanding, my girlfriend actually preferred it but it was my hair and I missed it. It was starting to get me down when I met a new work colleague who recommended Aloe Vera as treatment for my hair loss. I was a bit wary at first - I could not get my head around the fact that I was drinking a plant but about two weeks after starting the Gel, my hair started to grow back. I was made up! I could not believe that a doctor I paid to see could not recommend this fantastic treatment. I have needed three bottles so far and every hair on my head is back. Some of it is blonde but will take its original pigment soon as the other patches did the same. I am looking forward to having my brown hair back. Judging by the standard that the Gel has set, this should not take long at all. An amazing result for something my doctor called incurable!

ANIMAL CARE
My nine-year-old dog has a case of eczema, which was being treated by the vet with a steroid cream. I used two tubes over four weeks with no improvement whatsoever. I was introduced to Forever Living Products and tried the Aloe Propolis Crème. The eczema totally cleared up within two days.

ARTHRITIS
I have just discovered your site & would like to say that I think it is superb! I have been taking Forever Living Product’s aloe vera gel & more recently, “Forever Freedom” aloe gel for about 3 months as I was told it might improve the arthritis I had developed in my right knee. All my doctor had advised me was to take painkillers & gentle exercise. I noticed a difference in 3 weeks and 3 months on I am no longer experiencing the daily pain or morning stiffness or the difficulty in climbing the stairs. In fact, I am back to exercising at the gym 3 times a week! About 6 weeks ago I also started giving the gel to my Jack Russell, Candy who had been diagnosed as having arthritis in her rear right knee – she had to be carried everywhere, not even being able to manage the back doorstep, let alone the stairs! Now she has her bounce back and is joining us with our other dog for daily walks again on the beach. Another benefit to this is the avoidance of a recommended operation which would have cost £400! From 5pm in the evening she pesters me until she has been given her daily dose of Forever Freedom aloe gel – a dog’s instinct maybe in knowing what is good for her?

I must say that, generally, I feel better overall as a result of taking this daily tonic – I bore this out, having gone on holiday for a week and forgetting the gel, not only did my knee start playing up again, but I didn’t have the same amounts of energy or general feeling of wellness until I returned and got back to my “daily dosage” again. I have also for the last couple of years suffered quite badly from sinusitis and am, in fact, awaiting an operation. Before taking aloe vera, every cold I got would develop into sinusitis and require anti-biotic, now, although I have had a couple of colds they have not been as severe and required no medication. My mother is now taking the aloe vera gel daily and using the gelly externally hoping to help a rare condition she has called necrobiosis lipoidica. I will let you know how she gets on with it. I hope this might be of some help to any others who have experienced the pain of arthritis.

ARTHRITIS
I have been drinking the aloe vera juice about seven years now. I have arthritis real bad in my body. I have no pain or swelling if I drink the aloe juice. I have conducted many tests to see if I was fooling myself about this juice. If I quit drinking the juice, within a week, my knees swell, hands swell, and I have terrible pain. I cannot even walk when this occurs. Then, I start back drinking the juice and every symptom goes away. I am known for my preaching of this product. I tell everyone I know and believe me... I know what I am talking about. My arthritis is so bad that sometimes I have to drink an extra dose to keep the pain down. My father had this disease. Most people think I am nuts but me and my aloe vera knows... I wish the medical field would let this information out to their patients.. of course, they would not have jobs very long. I guess that is why the drug companies do not even go there. They want to sell their expensive drugs that kill you eventually.

ARTHRITIS
A friend of mine’s mum who is in her 70's, had been suffering from arthritis in one of her knees for some time. It was swollen, stiff and very painful. This lady couldn't walk without wearing a knee brace and she needed two paracetamol to get out of bed. She was on a waiting list for an operation. I suggested that my friend should buy some MSM gel for her mum to use to see if it would help her whilst she waited for her operation. Three months later she is no longer in any pain from her knee, the swelling and stiffness have gone and on a recent visit to her consultant was told she no longer needs an operation. An additional benefit has been that the MSM has obviously been rubbed into her hands as she was applying it to her knee and she’s able to open jars and bottles again which she hasn't been able to do for a long time. She is now walking without a limp, is free of pain and is sleeping properly....all thanks to MSM Gel. (She can also open the bottles of tonic water to add to her gin!) A girl after my own heart!

ARTHRITIS
I have been suffering from arthritis for some time in my neck, shoulders, knees and joints. I learned about Aloe Vera Heat Lotion and Aloe Vera Gel - by taking the Gel and applying the Heat Lotion to the affected areas I found instant relief from pain. This lotion is applied liberally and as often as required. I also found by applying the Heat Lotion to my chest I was getting rid of an awful lot of phlegm. I would have been bothered with my chest from time to time, but this lotion is really an instant relief from soreness or pain.

ARTHRITIS
I suffered from arthritis in my two hands and in my neck. I was introduced to Aloe Vera Gel and decided to try it, having nothing to lose with the 60 day money back guarantee if it didn't work. About two weeks later the pain got much worse but I was told to continue with it as this was a sure sign it was working. I did and a few days later I was pain free.

ARTHRITIS
In my job I spend long periods on my feet. I also have an old sports injury in my knee. I told my Doctor of the pain in my right knee –he told me that I needed the cartilage removed! My son recommended I try the Freedom Gel and the Heat Lotion. I also took the Arctic Sea capsules and within six weeks, I noticed mobility returning to the knee. It was less stiff and I could walk for longer periods. Four months later, I am now pain-free because of the Forever Freedom Gel. Thank You!

ARTHRITIS & IBS
I have been suffering from Arthritis for the last 18 months. I like walking and cycling but found it painful to do either. My Doctor said it was normal wear and tear but I did not accept this. I started taking Forever Freedom and after a month I noticed that my knee wasn’t painful after a long walk. Six months later there is no pain and I can pretty much do what I like! Another great bonus is I also suffered from IBS for a number of years and since taking the Freedom all traces have disappeared.

ASTHMA
I have had asthma from birth which resulted in a lot of absence from school and now weeks from work. My inhalers and tablets work, but, for a short period and the attacks come back again. Searching for an alternative on the internet brought me to your website. I had heard so much about Aloe Vera, I decided to give it a try. One month on, I actually forgot my inhaler and tablets. I have had no absence so far from work and I can breathe properly now. I take my Aloe Vera Gel everywhere including holidays.

ASTHMA - SINUSITIS
At the age of 7 my daughter developed asthma and sinusitis. The years that followed were filled with pain and anguish. We removed the carpet from our home and got rid of stuffed animals. Diana was put on Albuteral, Intal and Prednisone. These drugs, like many others, have horrible side effects. Holidays were spent in hospital rooms. School days were spent at home. She would watch other children play outside from the window. She walked around like a zombie. Years went by and her condition grew more serious. Diana’s doses increased. It was as if she did not even have a life. Finally, I asked the doctor, “When is Diana going to stop taking this medicine?” “Never,” was his cold response. I do not blame the doctors. Most just do what they are told. They are not taught to explore permanent cures. Well, you should never tell a mother her only daughter will be sick all of her life. I went on a rampage of research trying alternative methods from all over the world. When I was ready to give in, I tried one more remedy. I was persuaded to try a remedy with bee pollen and aloe vera. Diana and I used it half-heartedly. There was an immediate response. Slowly we replaced the “traditional” treatments until she was completely off of them. Natural remedies did not just attack a symptom; they boosted Diana’s immune system to fight its own battles. I was never able to look at her run in cross-country running meets. I was so afraid for her. She went from a girl who could not laugh hard for fear of an asthma attack, to a competitive runner with strong lungs. She still hates Christmas time and has trouble talking about her experience. To her, Christmas is a time spent in a hospital room. Diana now has a normal life.

ATHLETE'S FOOT
I had Athlete's Foot for approximately two years. It was a bright red patch over two toes, which got angry when it came into contact with water. I regularly sprayed Aloe First onto my foot and after a couple of months it cleared up. I was delighted with the results.

ATHLETE'S FOOT
I regularly suffer from Athlete's foot and I find it most uncomfortable and terribly hard to clear on some occasions. My foot becomes quite painful and inflamed. During one episode I applied Aloe Vera Gelly to the inflamed areas. In under a week the inflammation had almost totally disappeared and there was certainly no pain or discomfort.

BACK PAIN
For over a year now I have had some pain in the lower part of my back, after hurting it at work. Medication from my doctor didn't seem to work. A couple of weeks ago my back was worse than normal, so I decided to try Aloe Vera Heat Lotion. Within two days it had improved. I continued to use the heat lotion and it really relieved my back pain. So far I have not had any pain since. I also use the Toothgel, which cured my bleeding gums. Since using Aloe Toothgel I would not go back to using any other toothpaste. I also take 40 ml of Aloe Gel for good health.

BLEEDING GUMS
I was introduced to Forever Living Products in August. I have used Forever Bright Toothgel ever since and I find it very good. As I always suffered from bleeding gums no matter what toothpaste I used, I find now that this has stopped since using Aloe Vera. I also find my teeth to be whiter. I have also used Aloe Gel, Heat Lotion, Aloe Lips and Aloe Gelly and find them all very good. I would recommend Forever Living Products to my friends.

BLOOD PRESSURE
I thought it was time I thanked you for introducing me to 'Forever Living Products'. The benefits from taking the Aloe Berry Nectar have been manifold. I was on Lisinopril for high blood pressure. The doctor told me that once I started the treatment I would probably have to stay on it the rest of my life. Well, he was wrong. I have been taking the Berry Nectar for 6 months now and my blood pressure is back to normal, no more Lisinopril.

BREAST CANCER
In recent months I have been receiving treatment for breast cancer. This has involved radiotherapy and chemotherapy. I have been taking Aloe Berry Nectar for five weeks with amazing results. The hospital had warned me that the chemo treatment would make me feel very low. This normally happens around the fourth week mark. I am now on week six of radiotherapy and I am buzzing. I have a new lease of life. The doctor is amazed at the lack of burning on my skin. I can only put this down to the Aloe Berry Nectar. I have recommended it to other patients who are just about to start radiotherapy. We hope with the same successful results.

BRITTLE HAIR
I used to have very coarse, brittle hair. I also used to have problems finding a shampoo that didn't cause a reaction to my face if it should get on to the skin. Now Aloe Jojoba Shampoo and Conditioner have a permanent home in our bathroom!

BURNS
A few weeks ago I was lighting my gas oven when it blew up due to escaping gas. My face and hair were badly burnt. One side of my face was very red and raw from the flames. My friend advised me to spray the Aloe First on the burn every few minutes for the first hour or two then regularly for three days. I did this and was amazed that I suffered absolutely no pain from the burn and the swelling and redness went away very quickly. I also had two scars where my hair had burnt into my face. I started to apply the Aloe Vera Gelly to these on the third day and very soon the marks were barely noticeable. I would highly recommend Forever Living Products to anyone and feel the aloe First should be in everyone's first aid cabinet.

BURNS
At my place of work I quite often need to use a gas torch. On one particular occasion I got rather badly burned on my hand, this was extremely painful. Applying Aloe Gelly notably dulled the pain and several applications helped the burn to heal much faster than expected. One weekend my lips were extremely chapped and broken and giving much discomfort. After applying Aloe Gel and Aloe lips I was very impressed with how quickly the problem was alleviated.

BURNS
One evening I was working in our kitchen and accidentally put my hand on a hot hob and scorched my fingertips. Immediately they came up white and lumped. As soon as possible I dipped them in a glass of gel. After five minutes I nearly had forgotten why my hand was in the glass.

BURNS
One of the many testimonies I have is when my husband was burnt at 11:30 am one Saturday morning. He was burning a black plastic sack of rubbish when an aerosol can inside exploded, covering him in melted plastic, his face, neck and hands were red raw and some of the plastic was stuck to his skin. I sprayed on the Aloe First repeatedly, after about 10 minutes when the pain and swelling had gone I applied some Gelly, by 5 p.m. that evening there was absolutely no sign of redness or swelling, in fact the only proof we had that it happened were the clothes he was wearing at the time. Incidentally I still have them; the plastic never came off, even after two washes. Score Aloe Vera 10/10, Daz 0/10.

BURNS
My daughter, Amy, aged 2 years, touched an open oven door, still very hot, as I had just taken some baking out. She screamed with pain as her little fingers were burnt. I grabbed the Aloe First spray which is always on hand in the kitchen, and sprayed her fingers. She stopped screaming and crying immediately, and went off to play as if they were never burnt! Aloe First has wonderful pain-killing ingredients, as I've discovered through its use on myself and the children, for all sorts of purposes - burns, cuts, scrapes and insect bites.

CHEMOTHERAPY - RADIOTHERAPY
Cancer is caused by a combination of a number of triggers and the body's immune system failure to cope. The rich antioxidant properties in drinking Aloe helped to rebuild my immune system during and after the treatments which because of their high toxicity tend to make people weak and open to all types of infections (e.g. Mouth ulcers to influenza etc.) As a result of drinking the gel, I had no illnesses during the six months of treatment. I used the skin aloe vera gelly during radiation treatment and found it very cooling and soothing. I now need to maintain a high level of health and my immune system needs to be working at peak performance so I continue to drink the gel every day.

CHOLESTEROL
My family and I have a history of high cholesterol levels. I ordered your product called Forever Arctic Sea because I was dreading more tablets from my doctor. When I started my cholesterol level was 9.2% and when tested by the hospital four weeks later the result was 8.4%, a drop of nearly 1% and I have done nothing else to my diet except take two Arctic Sea capsules morning and evening. The hospital told me to keep doing what I was doing because it was working! Now to aid my Angina attack I have added Aloe Vera Gel drink to my life. I'm now telling everyone about your products.

COLDS
My little 2 year old had a bit of a cold the other day – streaming nose, coughing, the works! – so I mixed a couple of squirts of the Heat Lotion into her bath and it worked a treat! It cleared up her nose wonderfully and acted like a giant steam inhaler! And it certainly helped her (and us!) sleep a bit better that night too!

COLD SORES
Up until June this year, I was troubled with cold sores on a regular basis. My boyfriend suggested that I try Aloe Vera. I started taking the Gel twice a day, as well as using Aloe Lips and Aloe Toothgel. About two days after starting on the Aloe Vera I got a massive cold sore. At this point my faith in Aloe Vera completely disappeared. My boyfriend explained to me, however, that this could be the herpes virus so I reluctantly carried on taking the Aloe Vera. To my surprise my cold sore cleared up extremely quickly (it usually takes about 2 weeks). Then all through the summer I had no cold sores and I stopped taking the Aloe Vera about a month ago. One week ago I felt a cold sore threatening, so I quickly applied the Aloe Lips. This stopped it from developing any further and four days later it was gone. I have started taking the Gel again and also apply Aloe Lips three or four times daily.

COLD SORES
For as long as I can remember, I have suffered from cold sores. I have tried many prescribed treatments, but they have always returned. In September I was introduced to Forever Living Products. I purchased an Aloe Lips and I have been using this since. I am so glad to say that I have not had one single cold sore. I would have no hesitation in recommending this product to anyone.

COLITIS
I had suffered from Colitis for over a year. The symptoms I had were acute pain every morning followed by the necessity to dash to the toilet. I had diarrhoea and constant niggly pains throughout each day and bleeding also. My lifestyle was very restricted as the maximum time I could go out for was two hours; general and social activities were very difficult. Life was very restricted and worrying for me. I had put off going to the doctors as two friends of mine who also suffered from Colitis had little or no relief from the medications they were prescribed, and their lifestyles were very much restricted also. I was hoping it might just get better but the symptoms became much worse and I couldn't cope much longer without some help. I was very sceptical but my daughter whose family are completely convinced of the benefits of using Aloe Vera persuaded me to try it for myself and assured me that it certainly wouldn't do me any harm or make me any worse than I was, so I reluctantly agreed to try it. She suggested I drink 1 fl oz three times daily to clear my system very quickly. It was most definitely effective at clearing......I felt it was too effective at clearing me out......I already suffered from diarrhoea and taking the Gel I felt the need to use the toilet even more frequently. She suggested it would be better to bear the frequency for a week or so until it settled down, she felt a faster detoxification would save me from having to endure all my symptoms for a longer time. However I felt more comfortable about a slower detoxification and decide to reduce the quantities. After three weeks of taking 1 fl oz per day, sipped at intervals, I began to receive some very positive results. The bleeding and diarrhoea was intermittent and not so frequent, the pain was gone. I drank a total of three (one litre) bottles over a three month period, and by that time all my symptoms were gone! I was very happy. My daughter felt that if I had taken the suggested amounts I would have had all the results much sooner, but whatever, I was still very much relieved to be rid of all the unpleasantries. I was such a sceptic about using Aloe Vera before, I wish I had started using it earlier.

CONSTIPATION
Being a constant sufferer from constipation and having tried all the various remedies from the chemist, I have found since taking Aloe Vera that the relief has been tremendous and I have become more regular and also suffer no side effects. Also, I am a shift worker, which has contributed to my problem; and my general health has been much better since I started taking Aloe Vera. I don't feel as tired or get as many colds or flu at this time of year.

CONTACT LENSES
Your aloe liquid soap is fabulous - I wear gas permeable contact lenses and lost one so had to wear an old dehydrated pair. I rehydrated them, and as I didn’t have any protein remover I washed them in your soap. They came up lovely! Put them in my eyes and they were absolutely fine. I couldn’t have done that with any other soap or detergent!

CROHNS DISEASE
I have been drinking Aloe Vera Gel since being diagnosed with Crohns Disease three years ago. While drinking the Gel I have found that I am less tired and that I have good clear skin. If I don’t drink the Gel I get tired easily and I feel pretty dull in general. I have tried living with and without Aloe Vera. I can honestly say that I choose to live with it now as I find I am a much healthier, happier person that way.

DERMATITIS
For as long as I can remember I have always had a reaction to various fruits, vegetables and cleaning agents on my hands. Wearing rubber or cotton gloves didn't help as the heat inside them would also irritate and aggravate the skin. I could not wear silver, do household cleaning, cut or handle raw potatoes, onions, tomatoes, oranges, lemons or strawberries without having to pay the price. My hands would blister, become red, sore, itchy and eventually crack and bleed. I tried various hand creams, often having a reaction to the creams themselves, and eventually prescription cortisone, which helped to keep it reasonably controlled but it always take at least a week to start healing up. I decided to consistently use the Activator and Propolis cream. I stopped using my cortisone cream, Betnovate. For the first couple of days I was rather doubtful, but as I found immediate relief of the itching, I decided to persist. Within the first week I had total clearance. I use the Aloe Propolis cream every day now as a general hand care cream. It's a great first aid cream to have in the home and it's 'Forever' in use. I'd gladly recommend both the Activator and the Propolis cream to anyone who is at their 'wit's end' with dermatitis.

DIABETES
Adam was diagnosed with Diabetes at the age of 10. After the initial shock wore off we were shown how to monitor his blood sugar levels. As expected at first they were all over the scale. Doctors tried for a long time to stabilise them between 5 and 10. His insulin was altered on an almost daily basis. No matter what was tried - more insulin/less insulin- the levels were either too high or far too low. Eventually the doctors decided on the level of insulin to be given even though his blood sugar level was still high (12-17). It was finally accepted that his levels would be high, averaging out at 15 and would be unlikely to change. We had gotten use to this and thought nothing more of it. Then a friend told me the results they were getting for their son who had the same problem, I immediately ordered the Aloe Vera Gel, Adam thought it tasted horrible but continued to drink it, as he knew it would do him good. After a few days we noticed that his blood sugar levels started to fall. We did not know why this was but we were pleased. Adam carried on drinking the gel and was happier when we changed to the Berry Nectar. His blood sugar levels have now stabilised at an average of 8 and continue to do so and the only thing we can think that it is due to is the Aloe Vera Gel as nothing else has changed in his routine. Thank you for a brilliant product.

ECZEMA
Five weeks after giving birth to my son Joe I noticed spots on his forehead which spread down to his shoulders. Our Doctor diagnosed eczema. Joe was now four months old and was proscribed steroid creams and balneum, a moisturising cream. By seven months his face and neck were infected and he had scaly skin over his body. A friend suggested Aloe Propolis Crème. As a natural anti-biotic it appealed to me. We started using the Propolis with the steroids and noticed in a few weeks the infection on his face going down. After a month it had virtually gone and his skin was softer and less itchy. When Joe was 11 months, we introduced the Aloe Berry Nectar drink and weaned him off the steroids. Joe is now three. We still use the Propolis and he has near-normal skin as well as being free from the distress of constant irritation.

ENERGY - STRESS
I just want to write a few words to say how pleased I am since I've started using Aloe Vera products. I used to be very tired and stressed out all of the time. When I was introduced to Aloe Vera I was very sceptical about using it, but said, "what the hell, it can't make me any worse." So I did. I have been taking Bee Pollen and drinking the Gel for about 4 months now and have found great energy from these. I then went on to take Royal Jelly and found they calmed me. I would recommend these to anyone who feels like this as I've had great results.

ENERGY - IMPROVED HEALTH
I've been taking Aloe Berry Nectar for about three weeks. Since taking it I feel the benefit of it, I have a lot more energy and I feel that I am losing a lot of fluid, I am sleeping very well at night. I am also able to go out shopping now, as before I didn't have the inclination or the energy to do so. I have just started to take Lycium as I am troubled with Phlebitis and varicose veins. I was troubled with kidney and chest infections but the Gel has given me relief and I haven't had any bother since. I am 75 years of age and feel good. I would recommend Forever Living Products to everyone. Thank God for Forever Living Products.

EPIDERMOLYSIS BULLOSA (E.B.)
I am a sufferer of the rare skin condition called Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB for short). EB is a genetic skin condition passed on through faulty genes that both of my parents are a carrier of. It is a blistering condition; the blisters are burn-like and can be very sore and painful. What causes it is the epidermis and the dermas layers do not bond with the outer skin layers properly causing the outer layer of my skin to break out into blisters whenever friction is applied to the skin. I use the Bee Propolis cream on my thumb openings because they have a habit of cracking, resulting in becoming very sore for quite sometime. EB does not just affect me externally; it also affects me internally by having blisters in my mouth and throat caused by eating. It used to be a nightmare shopping for toothpaste because all the toothpaste that we bought from the supermarket stung and burned the blisters that were in my mouth, discouraging me from cleaning my teeth properly. But thanks to your Forever Bright Toothgel my nightmare is over.

EPILEPSY
Ten years ago, at the age of 18, I developed epilepsy. Quite often at the time I was waking up and there was a doctor standing over me. I was put on treatment and sent for an EEG. I was doing quite well for a while but after the birth of my daughter I was back at square one again. I was having seizures all the time and tried all types of treatment. At this stage I was just about coping. I became pregnant again and reacted badly to the treatments. My seizures were now so frequent I was having them in my sleep. My medication was increased again. I was having 3 or 4 seizures a day with no quality of life at all. I was introduced to Forever Living Products and decided to try the Aloe Vera Gel. In just two weeks I had taken three seizures but now being on the Gel long term, I am seizure free.

FATIGUE
It was evident after taking Aloe Vera Gel that I received a new level of energy from the product. I seem to have more get-up-and-go now which has helped me in my own life and at work. I intend to keep using this product for as long as I live.

FIBROMYALGIA - I.B.S.
I am 36 years of age and have had Fibromyalgia for 4 years and I.B.S. for 2 years. I have been using Aloe Vera Gel for two months and have found a great improvement, especially concerning my I.B.S. The Gel has made me feel calmer and more relaxed within myself. I find I have more energy than before, and I am able to concentrate better and be more focused. I have been attending my own GP and hospital clinics for the past 5 years on a regular basis and have received various treatments, from pain killers, anti-depressants to physiotherapy but have always been disappointed with the results. Until now I thought I would just have to put up with the pain and the way these illnesses had affected me. The Aloe Vera Gel has proven different. Not only have I noticed the change within me, but so has my husband, family and friends, and they are delighted with the results.

FIBROMYALGIA - ASTHMA
I suffered with Fibromyalgia for 10 years. Fibromyalgia is a condition which is very inhibiting .I had inflammation in all of the muscles and soft tissues of the body. I was unable to do even small things like cleaning my teeth without extreme pain. I also was exhausted and spent a lot of my time in and out of bed. Sleep was a thing of the past! I suffered from depression, and I was very overweight. A friend introduced me to Aloe Vera gel in October. By Christmas I was feeling the energy building up in my body. I was able to peel potatoes for the first time in years! This may sound trivial but believe me anyone out there with the same condition knows what I'm talking about! I have been taking the gel now for 14 months and I am off all my medication. I kept in touch with my doctor all the way through and every time I felt I had improved further he lessened my medication until I did not need any more. I also had chronic asthma for 6 years and needed 3 inhalers a day. Along with the gel which I was taking regularly I started to take the Garlic and Thyme (2x3times daily) and Gingko (1at night time). Inside 6 weeks I was off all three inhalers! Needless to say my doctor was delighted. He is a great believer in self help and alternative therapies. To-day I am still clear of asthma. I still have Fibromyalgia but the gel is keeping me virtually pain free. I can do so many things now that I was restricted with that I sometimes get carried away and tend to overdo things. One other thing, I always suffered from mouth ulcers and since I started using Forever Bright Toothgel I haven't had even one!! I am 49 years young and feel healthier now than when I was 29.

GENERAL
Since I have been taking Aloe Vera Gel I have noticed a great change in my sleeping pattern and overall appearance. My skin also has improved and I feel less stressed and in better health than I have been for a long time.

GENERAL
I am an electrician and get many a bump or scrape at work. I use the Aloe First and the Aloe Gelly to heal the wounds quickly without a risk of infection.

GENERAL
I have only used two Forever Living products so far: Aloe Heat Lotion - My daughter who is 13 years old has a weak ankle and when it gets sore I apply the lotion and it gives relief. Hand cream - I find this product really good since my hands get dry and rough very easily. I have tried many hand cream products but with the Aloe Vera, it lasts much longer on my hands, it absorbs quickly and my hands feel soft and moisturised. I have also an Aloe Vera plant. Only this weekend have I had to use it. I burnt my hand on the oven. I applied the juice of a piece of my plant and was amazed to find instant relief. I kept applying the juice a number of times over the next couple of hours and the burn gave no more pain. I hope to try more products in the New Year.

GENERAL
I have used quite a number of the Forever Living Products and am very pleased with them. I took the Aloe Vera Gel 3 times daily as recommended for 60 days and found it helpful with my digestive system and also it gave me a feeling of general well-being and vitality. I have taken the Bee Propolis for headaches, colds, sore throats, etc. and to my relief it has acted as a safe, natural antibiotic. I do not like taking antibiotics at all. I prefer, if possible, to allow my body to fight off minor infections. I firmly believe the body can do this with the help of Bee Propolis, thus building up the immune system.

GOUT
For many years I have suffered quite regularly from Gout, which is an extremely painful condition. I have never been able to pinpoint what exactly triggers it off. However, I can confirm that I have not suffered the same frequency of attacks since taking the Aloe Vera Gel. In addition, I have also been taking the Arctic-Sea capsules and the combination of the two have afforded me considerable and sustained relief from Gout.

HAEMORRHOIDS
I have been suffering from 'Michael Miles', piles, for years until I was introduced to Aloe Vera Gel. I started drinking the Gel three times a day (three fluid ounces). Two weeks later I began to feel a difference, the pain had virtually gone. After my second bottle, I'm glad to say I could sit without anymore pain. My 'Michael Miles' has gone.

HAIR CARE
I was over at my friend's house one day and we decided to wash our hair. I used their shampoo and conditioner, which was in the bathroom. It was different to the types I had used before, so I asked Jennifer what it was. Her mum came in at that moment and said it was Aloe Jojoba shampoo and conditioner. It made my hair feel really clean and I am going to use it from now on.

HAY FEVER
In the summer of 1996 Agnieszka was suffering her worst year of Hay fever ever. She had suffered from the ailment since childhood but this year was so chronic we were not getting more than 3 or 4 hours sleep every night. We did our usual trek back and forwards to the doctors and went through all the various tablets that promised amazing relief, nothing worked. As May and June came around we sat trapped inside. Then in July we met a woman who suggested Aloe Vera. I was sceptical in the extreme. If it really did work the doctor would have recommended it. Desperate from sleep deprivation however, we decided to give it a try! Within 10 days the Hay fever had vanished!!! We immediately started reading all we could about the subject. It turned out we were very lucky to have met someone who sold the very highest quality Aloe on the market without which we may never have found this 'cure'. Moreover there were thousands of documented cases where Aloe had helped in the treatment of other ailments. Our doctor, it turned out, knew nothing about Aloe and treated it with even more scepticism looking for other reasons why the Hay fever had vanished. We continued to take the Aloe and in time both our digestion systems improved and the number of small illnesses such as colds and flu decreased. We now use all the products - shampoo, toothgel, vitamins, lip balm - and all with amazing results. Our only advice to anyone now is 'Try it, you have nothing to lose and a great deal to gain!'

HEADACHE
For a long number of years I have been troubled with stress and migraine headaches, trying the doctor's medicine and pills to no avail. Just over three months ago I heard of Aloe Vera Gel; and putting this to the test, in just two weeks I found I wasn't having the headaches I used to have. I found myself a lot more at ease and after three months I am now completely free from all the pain and anxiety I have suffered for years on end.

HEADACHE
I have suffered for a number of years from extreme tiredness and tension pain in my neck and shoulders, which resulted in severe headaches. In June of this year I was having a headache every other day and was feeling very run down. So when I heard about Aloe Vera I decided to try it as a tonic. After about 3 weeks I suddenly realised I hadn't had a headache for over a week and my shoulders/neck tension was easing. I have been taking the Aloe Vera gel daily since July, and now in December I don't know myself I feel so well. I rarely have any headaches - only when I seriously overdo things pushing myself too far. My energy level is way up and I have real freedom in my neck and shoulders. I am so thankful to God for the benefits I have experienced from this wonderful plant, which he has provided for our good.

HEADACHE
I am 15 years old and have suffered migraine headaches for the last few years. I also suffer from asthma and for a while I was having a lot of attacks. I began to take Aloe Vera Gel twice a day. I can honestly say that my state of health has improved greatly. My headaches occur a lot less than usual and are not as bad as they used to be. I also haven't had an asthma attack since starting the Gel. It has improved my quality of life.

HEAD LICE
For months I have been having problems clearing my daughter Jessica's hair of Head Lice. There is an epidemic in the schools at the moment. I have tried specialist lotions and many other suggestions given by the pharmacist. None have worked. Aloe jojoba shampoo has. After just three consecutive days of washing her hair, it was completely clear, and even though she had been playing with children that still had them she has not picked any new ones up. Not only has the shampoo cleared her hair, it seems to be working as a preventive also. My friend has already bought some shampoo to use on their own children. Jessica's hair is also is much easier to brush and looks very shiny and healthy. So thank you once again and thanks from Jessica who doesn't have to suffer any more.

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE
My mother has had a high blood pressure problem for a few years now. It came to our attention because she started fainting for no apparent reason, several times in the space of a few weeks. The doctor put her on blood pressure medicines which didn’t help and which started giving her other problems on top of the blood pressure, e.g. symptoms of diabetes, and they even started putting tubes inside her to help with treatment. They removed salt from her diet and this made things even worse, with the fainting becoming more frequent. She was admitted to hospital shortly afterwards and put into a ward which included two people who died, giving a measure of the seriousness it was being given. She was more or less told that the drugs weren’t working; she was old and it was likely to kill her. I recommended the Aloe Berry Nectar drink to her about a year ago and she drank it in very low doses (20 ml per day) since then. As a few weeks passed she started feeling better and better, until after about four months she was off all of her medication and did not even bother going for check ups any more saying there was no point, her blood pressure was always normal now.

IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME
I have been suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome for 6 years. A friend of mine suggested that I try Aloe Vera Gel. I have been taking it for 5 weeks and already I feel a lot healthier, calm and more relaxed.

IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME
I have suffered from Irritable Bowel Syndrome for several years. I could not understand what was wrong with me. Finally, I could not stand the discomfort any more and went to see my GP. I did not even know what IBS was, all I knew was that I had continual indigestion and always felt so bloated, as though I was over-eating at every meal. My GP put me on various spasmodic drugs, they just seemed to keep the symptoms under control, but now and again it would flare up. After drinking the second bottle I could definitely feel an improvement and I am very pleased to say that now I do not have any symptoms. I can eat anything I like and it is fantastic to be able to take a completely natural product and not to have to take prescription drugs, which can produce awful side effects.

IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME
I was off work last year for 2 months with severe stomach problems. The doctor’s answer to this was antispasmodic drugs and anti-depressants. The pain was so bad at times I thought I was seriously ill…. tests in the hospital diagnosed me with IBS by process of elimination. I was very down, thinking that I would have to live with this discomfort for the rest of my days since there was no cure. Then my sister introduced me to the Aloe Vera Gel. I was amazed at the results. After 3 weeks I felt so much better and the symptoms subsided after 6 weeks, I was virtually symptom free. I also had more energy and for the first time in ages felt positive about life again. I came off all my medication and had zero side affects. I swear by the Aloe Vera Gel and I recommend it to everyone I meet.

IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME
I am a 57 year old grandmother who, for most of my life, has enjoyed good health. The only real problem I endured, from the age of 7, was very severe migraine. Over a long period you do learn to cope, difficult as it is. Approximately 2 years ago I noticed great changes in my bowel functions. I suffered severe diarrhoea, pain, etc. As my mother had a malignant bowel tumour, you can imagine my feelings. My doctor sent me immediately to a specialist. I had every test imaginable and was finally diagnosed as suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). I also had the added complication of a motility problem which caused terrible chest pains. I was put on medication and told to carry on. I had to watch what I ate as some things; cabbage, lettuce, beans, etc. make the symptoms very much worse. For the next 18 months I existed. This was a very miserable time, afraid to go places in case I couldn't find a toilet, at this time my bowels were moving 5-10 times a day and I was constantly in pain. I really felt life was not worth living and at one point felt the diagnosis was wrong and I was on my way out. In September my husband and I spent a weekend in North Wales and I was lucky enough to hear spiritualist healer Helen Parry Jones talk about Aloe Vera Gel. She said it was wonderful for all sorts of ailments and as at that time I was particularly low, I decided to try it. I started taking Aloe Vera Gel and I now have my life back. I no longer take any medication and also I no longer have to know where every toilet in the area is located. You will know of side effects of conventional medication. Well, I have side advantages from Aloe Vera Gel. My migraine is no longer severe, the flashing lights, etc. are over in 15 minutes, I am left with a very severe headache but this I can cope with. I also had a great number of brown age spots which have reduced greatly. I have complete faith in Aloe Vera Gel and will continue to recommend it to all and sundry, as this has been my lifesaver.

JOINTS (Horse)
Sean is our 12 year old, 17.2 hands Irish Draught horse, who we lovingly bred despite a traumatic birth - he was lucky even then! A year ago we noticed he was walking lame over hard ground. On investigation it was thought to be caused by various things but during December 2006 his condition worsened when he went chronically lame in both front feet. He was taken into surgery for x-rays and nerve blocks to try and diagnose the exact problem and to our dismay was found to have problems with his coffin joints – a very serious condition in horses. At first he was given an injection in the neck to try and improve the joints, but when this didn’t help he had steroids injected into the coffin joint of the left-fore (his worst foot). When the needle went in, lots of synovial fluid came out which showed that there was enormous pressure in the joint. We distinctly remember one afternoon when we were advised to turn him out on a very small area. A few hours later we found him highly distressed, literally crying with pain and holding up one leg. It was a job to even get him back to the stable. By now he was lame even walking in the paddock and on his next visit the vet told us that the prognosis was extremely poor and that nothing more could be done for him. We were facing having to put him down to end his suffering - a terribly upsetting situation for such a lovely horse as Sean! We wrote to vet David Urch in desperation as we didn’t want to lose Sean. He advised us to give him 300ml of Forever Freedom daily and to rub Aloe MSM Gel into the joints. Gradually Sean began to improve and one month later, to our own vet’s surprise, he was cantering around the paddock. After three months he was totally sound again, floating around in trot and canter, bucking and rearing when we turned him out - an amazing sight after what he had been through. We have now reduced the Freedom to a 120ml a day maintenance dose. We are very grateful to these products for giving Sean his freedom again - what fantastic results and a fantastic business. We can’t help telling everyone about them and Forever as a Company.

LIP CARE
For me Aloe Lips has been a success. I have always made use of Boots brand lip balms but was introduced to Forever Living's Aloe Lips. Since using it my lips have been much softer and they have not been dry or sore. I would recommend Aloe Lips to anyone and especially those who have any problems or suffer with their lips.

MYALGIC ENCEPHALOMYELITIS
In May I was taken into hospital with chest pains, pains down my arms and I was finding it hard to breathe; all sorts of things seemed to be going wrong. All these symptoms had been occurring over the year before, but now the pains were very severe. I was diagnosed as having ME and there is no real cure. I had more 'downs' than 'ups' and I had myself convinced that I could be done without; I even felt my own children could do without me, I was at an all time low and I was deeply depressed. I had also been on antidepressants for over a year as well as other sorts of tablets. Then I was introduced to Aloe Vera Gel in November: by Christmas I was a totally different person. I was taking 60 mls per day, and then I started taking Royal Jelly and Bee Pollen. I work in a supermarket 5 days a week 8 hours per day, something I could not have kept up if it wasn't for Aloe Vera. I can't imagine life without Aloe Vera Gel.

MIGRAINE
I have suffered with migraine type headaches for about 20 years. About 15 years ago, I was told it was food intolerance; but I still got my headaches, which lasted for 3 days at a time. Since I got my first tub of Aloe Vera Gel in April I have only had three very light headaches, lasting only I day each time. I have also noticed that I seem to have more energy.

MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS
My Partner, Ron, was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2000. He has had constant pain in his torso, numbness in his legs and feet, chronic fatigue, and could not walk for more than 5 minutes at a snails pace. All this has left him feeling severely depressed. He had never known a moment free from any of these symptoms since he was diagnosed. He could take no medication (apart from anti-depressants) as there is none available and his consultant confirmed once again in December 2006 there is nothing that can be done to alleviate the condition. After much persuasion from myself, and seeing the improvement in my mother’s Arthritis and IBS, he decided to give Aloe Vera Gel a try. Ron is the biggest sceptic on the planet; however, he took the daily dose of Gel diligently. Then he came and sat by me on Monday 15th January 2007 and said, “This is the first time in 6 years I can honestly say I have no pain, and I can feel my legs”. He was ecstatic!! He said he felt like he could run a marathon. Words cannot describe the change in his mood and general state of mind. The benefits of this aptly named 'Miracle Plant' are truly amazing. The fundamental lesson learned … you really never know until you try. Ron, of course, is now Aloe's biggest fan and tells everyone he meets about the benefits.

PAINFUL NECK
I have been a car mechanic all my life. In recent years due to a stiff sore neck, my work has been made very difficult. A customer noticing my problem recommended I try Forever Living Aloe Vera Heat Lotion as it had helped a friend of hers with the same complaint. I was at the stage when I would have tried anything to get relief. Sure enough after the first application my neck was moving again. I use it morning and night. I also use the Toothgel as it keeps my teeth really white and keeps my mouth fresh all day.

POST-OPERATION HEALTH
Last May I went into hospital for an operation. A week beforehand I started taking Forever Living Aloe Vera Gel. I knew it would help me through my ordeal because of all the minerals, vitamins and amino acids it contained. It helped to clean the anaesthetic out of my system and helped the healing process. I was bouncing with health and vitality 5 weeks after my operation and itching to get back to work. I was instructed by my doctor to wait for six weeks before attempting to return to work and this I did. I was able to enjoy the summer and did not feel drained and tired as one sometimes does after an anaesthetic. I am going to take Aloe Vera Gel through the winter to keep me in good shape.

POST-VIRAL FATIGUE
I am a staff nurse and in July last year I was diagnosed with post-viral fatigue. I had been an extremely fit and active person. I was able to jog, swim and work out regularly during a seven-day period. The illness affected me in many ways. I was constantly tired. I was unable to carry out even the smallest of chores around the house without feeling I had completed a marathon. I had to constantly rest. I was always dizzy, felt agitated and experienced twitching in my legs. My vision was also affected and my arms and legs were very weak. Life was getting very much depressing and the doctors could offer me nothing. I am so thankful to have been told about Aloe Vera and Forever Living Products from a friend. I started taking the Gel 3 times daily along with Propolis tablets 2-3 times daily, Garlic & Thyme 1-3 times daily, Royal Jelly 2-3 times daily and Bee Pollen 2-3 times daily. I experienced mild headaches but this was a boost to me knowing that the detox process was working. After 3 months I felt a lot better. I had more energy and was able to get out for short walks. In October this year I was able to get back to work part-time and I am now full-time feeling 100%.

PREGNANCY
Is Aloe Vera Gel safe to take during pregnancy, and what other FLP products are useful in pregnancy? This is a question that is asked regularly, and the answer is:
FLP’s Aloe Vera Gel is perfectly safe and has many benefits for the pregnant or breast-feeding mother. It will help keep constipation at bay, it will assist the body by providing and helping assimilate the vitamins, minerals and amino acids necessary for good health in the mother and baby. It will ease morning sickness, lower blood pressure and stabilise hormonal upsets. It will help fight bladder and urinary infections and will kill Candida bacteria, which causes thrush in pregnant women and breast-fed babies. Royal Jelly will help hormone balance. The use of Aloe Gelly rubbed into the skin will help with problem skin, veins, piles and avoid stretch marks. A-Beta-CarE is vital during pregnancy for many body functions and will help hair and skin condition.

PROSTATE
My GP referred me to a specialist as he suspected that I had an enlarged prostate which, if left unattended, could become a serious problem. A flexible cystoscopy was carried out by the specialist. He confirmed that the prostate was enlarged, but it wasn't cancerous. He recommended it be removed by surgery, which could take place in four months time. I was introduced to your Aloe Vera Gel. 'It will detoxify your body', I was told. So I began to drink a small quantity everyday. Later, when the pre-operation check-up was done the surgeon said that my prostate had returned to normal and he informed my GP that the Aloe Vera had resolved the problem. He told me not to tell any of his patients, as his income from carrying out operations would be reduced!

PSORIASIS
I suffered from psoriasis all over my body and head for 4 years. I have spent a great deal on prescribed drugs and herbal remedies before trying Forever Living Products. I started drinking the Aloe Gel and rubbing Aloe Propolis Creme into the affected areas two or three times a day. After 2 weeks my condition was much relieved and steady progress continues. I am looking forward to wearing shorts and T-shirts this summer.

PSORIASIS
Since using Aloe Vera Gel, Cream and Shampoo my psoriasis has really cleared up now in all affected places. Anything I had got from the chemist hadn't worked as fast or as effectively as these products did. I am very happy with the treatment.

RADIOTHERAPY - CHEMOTHERAPY
Cancer is caused by a combination of a number of triggers and the body's immune system failure to cope. The rich antioxidant properties in drinking Aloe helped to rebuild my immune system during and after the treatments which because of their high toxicity tend to make people weak and open to all types of infections (e.g. Mouth ulcers to influenza etc.) As a result of drinking the gel, I had no illnesses during the six months of treatment. I used the skin aloe vera gelly during radiation treatment and found it very cooling and soothing. I now need to maintain a high level of health and my immune system needs to be working at peak performance so I continue to drink the gel every day.

RASH
As a keen water sports enthusiast I would wear a wetsuit regularly. Often when I have had it on for a long time I get a bad rash on my upper arm. Since using Aloe Vera Gelly on the rash I was amazed at how quickly it healed and would recommend the Gelly to anyone with cuts, stings, etc.

ROUGH SKIN
Since being introduced to Aloe Propolis Crème and Aloe Lips I have found both to be excellent products. I have no more rough skin or hacks on my hands, and I do not complain of chapped lips any more. I will continue to use both products.

SKIN CARE
Living in a seaside resort always means harsh weather, sun, snow, wind and rain of course. My skin, which is dry, always suffers. I found using Aloe moisturising lotion helped protect my skin from all elements. It has a pleasant scent and absorbs quickly into the skin, keeping my skin looking smooth and soft. Aloe moisturising lotion is great to wear under my make up.

SPOTS
After having a shave I used to get lots of spots until I started using Gentleman's Pride and it has cured my spots. I would recommend this to anyone as an excellent skin conditioner.

SPRAINS
I sprained my ankle recently and, as we do, I tried to get back to normal too quickly. My ankle became very painful again so I started to use the MSM gel. I massaged the gel into my ankle and foot 3 times a day for a couple of days. The pain went and hasn’t returned since.

STAINS
My daughter was in her Christmas Ballet show the other Sunday. The makeup you have to apply is anything but subtle. She got bright red lipstick on her baby pink cardigan. Out came the neat MPD and I left it soaking for an hour or two then washed it and to my surprise ALL the lipstick stain has gone. Another triumph for MPD (whatever did I do before I discovered it?!?!)

STAINS
A few weeks ago, a visitor to my house dropped some curry on my cream sofa! I was dreading the after effects... as many of you know, saffron is totally impervious to the most eager endeavours to remove it! However, I dampened the cushion and applied MPD, rinsed, then applied MPD again with a toothbrush and - Hey Presto! You would never know there had ever been an accident.

STAINS
Now for a brilliant tip for all DIY mechanics, especially if you have one of those very dirty diesel engines. Having done some work around the engine of my car from underneath, my arms, face etc became covered in that usual dirty black grime. On the first evening I scrubbed like mad to remove some with a nailbrush until I was sore. The next night l tried to find an easier and quicker option, I did, MPD! Just a couple of squirts on a scrunchy and what magic, a few rubs here there and everywhere including my face and all was spotlessly clean. As a mechanic, I know there is no product that good.

STAINS
As I’m far too vain to grow old gracefully, I have a mobile hairdresser who comes to my house to cut and colour my hair. She is always very careful, however, somehow this weekend, four large splodges of auburn coloured hair dye ended up on my light beige carpet!!! I recently bought a bottle of MPD but for some reason was reluctant to try it or anything for that matter. Anyway after several hours, I put a tiny drop onto one splodge, gently rubbed it in to the carpet and low and behold the stain went – I couldn’t believe it – my partner need never know – phew!!!! Please let everyone know – this could save their lives too!!

STRESS
I have suffered from stress and PMT for many years. I had noticed a girl who works shifts with me had greatly changed over the previous weeks. She had been suffering from stress and fatigue, and suddenly she was bubbly and full of life. When I asked her secret, she replied "Forever Living Aloe Vera Gel every day". Seeing is believing and I just had to try it for myself. I started taking the Gel every day to get the sparkle back in my life. It is no problem now to face the day, to get up and go to work and not feel washed out when I get home. My life has greatly changed for the better and I am a much nicer person to know!!

STRETCH MARKS
My friend’s 16 year old daughter had very red and inflamed stretch marks at the tops of her inner thighs. These were obviously through growth as she’s very tall and thin. I am aware that with stretch marks it’s best to catch them while they are still red to be able to treat them, when they turn silver is when you are left with scarring. I recommended the Alpha-E Factor as this enhances the elasticity in the skin and suggested that she applied it first thing in the morning and last thing at night. Lo and behold they have practically vanished! So a good tip for expectant mothers.

TENNIS ELBOW
The Aloe Vera Drinking Gel had become a morning must with my orange juice over the past year, when I ran out and when I went to get another, there was only Forever Freedom, so I started on that instead. I had been having lots of pain in my left elbow, suspected tennis elbow, but hadn't had time to go to the doctors, so had just battled on. I'd been waking up in the night not able to move it because of the pain. Thanks to Forever Freedom the pain has nearly gone. When I’ve been lifting heavy objects it’s a bit uncomfortable but at least my daily routine isn't a pain anymore.

TOOTH EXTRACTIONS
A while ago I had a wisdom tooth removed. As soon as I got home I applied Aloe Vera Gelly and then applied it frequently throughout the day. I felt there was still a piece of tooth left in the gum and went back to the dentist the following day to have it removed. She was absolutely amazed at the healing that had occurred and said it had healed in one day and would normally take three or four days.

ULCERATIVE COLITIS
I was diagnosed as suffering from Ulcerative Colitis. The symptoms were loss of blood and mucus due to ulceration of the large bowel and rectum resulting in a lack of control of my bodily functions. I was living from convenience to convenience! In addition I had painful arthritis in my joints. These, combined with complete lack of energy and the mental anguish, made life a complete misery. Following the operations (I had three in all) I suffered from arthritis, many severe gastric upsets, severe cramps, back ache, sinusitis, chest infections, body overheating, together with generally very poor health and lack of energy. Despite many hundreds of pounds of investment in alternative medicine, including Acupuncture, no permanent relief was obtained. My dad introduced me to Aloe Vera Gel, within a very short period I have experienced a dramatic improvement in my overall health and well being. All the above ailments are now gone or significantly improved and my life has been transformed. I can now work, and have the energy to play with my three young sons and have a social life.

ULCERS
A cut on my leg developed into a varicose ulcer - very painful and difficult to clear up. None of the creams tried in the hospital had any effect and I decide to use only Aloe Vera Gelly. In a short time the district nurse who was calling daily to dress the ulcer noticed a change - healing was taking place from the inside and new tissue was forming. I continued to use the Gelly and am thankful to say that the ulcer is now completely healed.

VERRUCAS
My ten year old daughter has suffered from Verrucas on both feet for some time now, I have tried lots of different products from creams to freeze treatments and nothing has worked until!!! I used the Aloe Activator, absolutely brilliant! I applied the Activator every night using cotton wool tips on clean dry feet and only a drop or two over a period of a few weeks, the black roots appeared at the surface of the feet and have now completely gone. I definitely recommend this product I think it is fabulous and my daughter is really happy too, especially now that she can go to the swimming pool and not have to wear Verruca socks. Thanks to Forever Living Products for a FANTASTIC result!
