---

60ml per day

effects took a few days to start , now i have no ibs pain and feel great.

it is essential to find a product 100% stabilised gel.

---

only buy 100% Gel - Forever Living is possibly the only brand i have found so far which satisfies this.

I have been using Forever Living products for 5 years now. As an Assistant Supervisor I didn't necessary want to run it as a business, although I know plenty of people who do. I was more interested in the health benefits I'd heard about drinking aloe vera juice.

I didn't like the original aloe vera drinking gel(bright yellow), which tasted very bitter but did make a difference to my Irritable Bowel (IBS), which I'd suffered with for a few years. It also had the added benefit of making my skin clearer. After around 3 mths of drinking the gel, which is 99% pure aloe vera juice I had a lot of comments from friends on my complexion - and I'm over 40! My skin was quite good before but my friends said it looked more luminous and glowing.

I've since graduated to the aloe vera berry drink, which has a delicious flavour and contains apple and cranberry juice. It's very good for any female urinary problems eg Cystitis, as well as containing all the good things the original juice has. I would genuinely recommend the drinks as they have all but cleared up my IBS. Some people think Forever Living products are quite expensive, particularly the drinks. They sell at a retail price of £18($26). However, If you become a distributor you can buy the drink at a cheaper wholesale price of around £13($19). I think the products are high quality and the ones I personally use have worked for me. The products are certified as having a very high content of aloe vera, unlike a lot of products which are advertised as containing aloe vera but if you read the ingredients label it is listed near the bottom!

The majority of Forever Living products are sold through independent distributors. A search on the net should bring a distributor in most peoples locality.

I have had problems with what the Doctors have described as an irritated bowel for many years. The symptoms were a 'migraine' type pain in the stomach, loss of appetite, lack of energy and disturbed sleep. I have tried conventional medication, and have had exploratory surgery with no real success. I have also tried reflexology and found that to be of some benefit.

I was introduced to Forever Living Products in June. I have used Forever Living Aloe Vera Gel (which is actually a juice) and also Bee Pollen Tablets. Within six weeks I have found, the frequency and severity of these attacks have reduced by half. Lack of energy is no longer a problem, I feel more relaxed and my sleep pattern has improved.

I would highly recommend these products

For years I suffered from IBS and Spastic Colon. I had to deal with bloating and cramping everyday. I mean everyday. Once every 3 months I would have a normal day where I felt good and was not bloated.

I tried everything, including all kinds of fiber powders. They seem to make the condition worse.

AloeElite has changed the quality of my life for the better. Maybe 2 or 3 times a month I get bloated. However, even after bloating I do not experience the horrible cramping anymore. My bad days now used to be my very good days before AloeElite.

The best thing is, NO SIDE EFFECTS!

I was an athlete during most of my young life. With the exception of a hysterectomy at 30, I was the picture of health. Then I started gaining weight, developed Type II diabetes, and ended up getting my gallbladder removed.

About two years ago, when I was 41, I began working in a job that was extremely stressful. During the seven months I was employed there, I began to suffer from a spastic colon, abdominal pain (became constant, even while sleeping), and cramping. I went to the doctor, had the blood tests, the x-rays, the upper G.I., and sonograms. All tests came back negative. My doctor decided I could have I.B.S. and gave me medication aimed at "relaxing" the intestinal muscles. None of this helped. I was laid off from my job, so the stress simply changed. The pain in my upper left quadrant got worse, forcing me to make a trip to the emergency room, where they shot me with morphine and took another sonogram, which showed nothing to be wrong.

In desperation, I began surfing the internet for information involving I.B.S. and/or all the other intestinal and pancreatic diseases. I happened upon the A.M.P. website and began reading everything on the site.

Like so many other folks, I have always trusted health care professionals to know exactly how to treat any ailment I might have. So, I was hesitant to spend the money on the A.M.P. tablets, but I told myself, "It can't hurt, so why not try it this one time." So, I ordered a bottle.

I followed the instructions, took the suggested dosage, and within a month, my I.B.S symptoms seemed to lesson to the point of not being noticeable about 95% of the time. I still had the abdominal pain, but that, too, seemed to be lessoning.

Now, after about a year of taking A.M.P., my I.B.S symptoms are gone. But the main thing is that the pain in my upper left quadrant is virtually gone. I feel like I have my life back.

I now take the "maintenance" dosage and will continue to do so.

I am very grateful for a product that has helped me so much.

I am an active 28-year-old healthy male, currently finishing my training as a nurse anesthetist. This is my seventh year of higher education mixed in with a couple of years of employment as an ICU nurse. Two years ago, I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis/irritable bowel syndrome via colonoscopy.

Since my diagnosis, I have educated myself on the pathophysiology of the disease, as well as the pharmacological treatment. I was taking asacol by mouth three times a day, and my symptoms seemed to worsen and worsen over the past two years. Although I tried my best, the disease seemed to be taking over my life. I couldn’t go ANYWHERE without eyeing where the bathroom would be in case of an emergency…which came frequently. I had to drive to work 90 mph because I felt such urgency to need the bathroom. It was very difficult going out on ‘first dates’ because I NEVER knew when an attack would hit…which could be anytime. I tried not to let it take over my life, so I continued to do normal things like water skiing, bike riding, ect, and just prayed that an attack wouldn’t hit at those times. On my worst day, I used the bathroom 19 times.

Practicing anesthesia became very difficult since I couldn’t just abandon my sleeping patient to go use the restroom. It was at this time that I began seriously researching alternative therapies…. and found Aloe Elite product. Somewhat skeptical at first about both its efficacy and its price, I felt that I had no other choice other than to at least give it a try. After reading all of the literature on it over and over again, I convinced myself that it would be not only safe, but an effective treatment for my misery.

Ladies and gentleman, my symptoms are almost non-existent now after one month. I have normal bowel movements without mucus or diarrhea. So far, I have only had a couple of small attacks that were MINIMAL compared to the ones I used to have. Most importantly, my quality of life has improved so much. I flew to Dallas this past weekend and didn’t get an ulcer worrying that I would have an attack on the plane. I actually go places now and don’t worry about where the bathroom is. The product scientifically makes sense and it has made a 100% believer out of me. You may use me as a reference any time. I am a better anesthesia practitioner now that I can concentrate more on my patient instead of my stomach. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Most of us lead our daily life doing all our routine things, going to work, family life etc. knowing that we have control of our bodies and health. (usually)

Last November I started to experience loss of control of my bodily functions- i.e. my bodies functions started to control me, as I could not travel, not knowing when the diarrhea would hit. Several months of on and off episodes- I finally decided to visit the doctor- The specialist in the area of intestinal tracks. He performed many tests, blood tests, stool tests etc. trying to find causes of my distress. He actually scheduled and performed a colonoscopy only to find that that part was OK. The doctor felt that maybe the antibiotics that I took in November had caused my problems.

Our family medical history, unknown to me, has had internal intestinal problems like Crohn's disease and diverticulous. The doctor, after all the tests and thousands of dollars later concluded that I suffer from I.B.S. and will have to deal with it for life.

Before my colonoscopy I did research on all the intestinal diseases, symptoms, causes and how to heal (nutritional healing research). The main common healing agent found in almost all problems was AMP.

I did further research and found a product on the internet and ordered it immediately and requested next day air. Thank God for that. After suffering for months with the frequent and unanticipated trips to the bathroom I found the answer. Within 2 weeks (started in April) there was vast improvement and within 4 weeks virtually 95% improvement.

On my last trip to the doctor - June - the final follow up - the doctor could not believe my status. In fact he wanted information on the pills I was taking. (I took copies of info with me to the appointment) The doctor basically concluded that we didn't need to do any further testing. Believe me, he was genuinely interested in the product and told me that he would probable order some for some of his patients. He actually paged through the material when I was in his office.

I am 27 years of age and a year ago began to suffer severe abdominal pains and cramping which was worse on eating virtually anything. The only thing that I could eat seemed to be salad which had drastic effects on my weight. I stopped going to the gym and did nothing. After many months and various tests I was told that I had IBS and I was given a leaflet which was completely useless. The feeling was that it is something you just have to live with and the likelihood of surgery appeared a possibility as things failed to improve.

I bought books and began to research just about everything I could find on the net when I came across a site. To be fair, both my wife and I thought this was just a con site. But something about the number of people who has said that this product worked for them made me give it a try. I had nothing to lose except money and was so desperate for a solution I would have tried anything.

I started on the tablets and took the maximum dosage and recorded my symptoms on the chart provided. By the end of the first month my symptoms were the same as normal. I had made no progress. However, the info said to expect it to take some time so I continued with the products anyway.

After the second month I felt no change and still felt the same. I started to think this was definitely a con. I decided to try one more month. In the third month I noticed a change. I started to notice a decrease in the amount of severe attacks of cramping. To cut a long story short the symptoms continued to decrease until I had NO CRAMPING AND 100% RESOLUTION OF ALL SYMPTOMS. This was after around 8 months time.

I could eat and drink anything. Even spicy foods which I would not have even dared to try without being on the toilet all day afterwards. The product is responsible for this resolution because on two occasions I decided that I was going to stop taking the product and on the two occasions the symptoms gradually came back. When I re-commenced the product the symptoms went away.

I have spent this time to write this because the product really has saved my life and restored my health to 100%. If I could recommend one thing to IBS sufferers then I would recommend this and only this product. I am certain that it will improve or cure (and I don’t take the word cure lightly) the symptoms experienced. Give the product a chance and don’t give up after two months.
