Aloe Mucilaginous Polysaccharide: What’s that?

AMP is short for aloe mucilaginous polysaccharide which is the key beneficial compound that is found in the aloe vera plant.  The aloe "cactus," actually a desert succulent, has been praised as one of the "miracle" plants. The gel of the plant's leaves is used for treatment, both internally and externally. It contains some amino acids, vitamins, and minerals and a salicylate substance that may help reduce inflammation. Aloe vera has been used by many cultures for centuries as a healing plant. When combined with a healthy lifestyle and a proper diet, aloe vera is believed to work by balancing and enhancing the body’s defense mechanism.  It is also known to help people operate at a lower stress level, thus reducing their need for increased maintenance with pharmaceutical drugs. 

Aloe Vera has been proven to facilitate increased absorption of the essential vitamins, C and E, which improves overall nutrition.  The polysaccharides that come from aloe vera are believed to restore and maintain the cellular integrity of the intestinal wall, which facilitates proper absorption of nutrients and eliminates the causes of bleeding ulcers, leaky gut, hemorrhoids and other gastro-intestinal and immunological disorders. 

AMP may promote tissue healing and cellular repair, which is a far better alternative than prescription medicines that treat the symptoms of gastrointestinal disorders.  It is also believed to regulate the proper release of stomach enzymes, which if not controlled, result in digestive conditions such as GERD, acid reflux, heartburn, gastritis, indigestion and ulcers.  In addition to the above mentioned benefits, AMP can help reduce inflammation, relieve auto-immune response to allergic conditions, help balance the immune system, and restore the intestinal protective mucosa lining.   AMP encourages and promotes the tissue healing process, prevents the production of overactive stomach acids, eliminates diarrhea and constipation, and increases the absorption levels of foods and nutrients. Some of the most amazing benefits of AMP are that it helps to correct anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-yeast and anti-parasitic infections and viruses as well as protecting the healthy flora in the digestive tract.  It can increase blood circulation through the body and balance blood sugar as well as work as an antioxidant that fights free radicals from inflicting serious cell damage.
