To prepare it, organic aloe leaves where used, which were carefully washed, disinfected and hand-processed. One portion (0,5 ml) is the equivalent of 20 ml of traditional aloe juice and supplies all of the pro-health bioactive substances that naturally occur in this plant’s leaves.
This formulation belongs to the group of pro-health supplements. It strengthens the condition of the organism, has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant properties. It is especially recommended for people who are weakened, who often catch infections, complaining of deterioration of well-being and poor skin condition.

Aloe vera (Aloe vera L.) is a tropical plant that belongs to Aloeowates. Its leaves which are thick, fleshy, with a characteristic interior resembling a gel, are used for medical and cosmetic applications. It is indeed the aloe leaf pulp that accumulates over 270 different bioactive components. Its pro-health properties are the result of their synergistic action.
Aloe is a repository of nutrients. The following are considered to be the most important: polysaccharide, polyphenolic compounds (including rutin, quercetin, catechin, apigenin), anthraquinones and natural plant enzymes. In addition, many valuable vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, C, E, beta-carotene, biotin, folic acid), minerals (magnesium, potassium, calcium, sodium, phosphorus), trace elements can be found in the leaves of aloe. (zinc, manganese, cobalt, molybdenum, copper) and organic acids (salicylic, malic, cinnamic, succinic, citric, tartaric acids).
Aloe is deadly to pathogens. The active substances contained in the leaves limit the development of pathogenic Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria (including E. coli, Enterococcus bovis, S. aureus, Proteus vulgaris, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebisiella pneumoniae). They can also deactivate viruses (influenza, chicken pox or herpes). They are also effective against pathological fungi (Candida paraprilosis, Candida krusei, Candida albicans).
Aloe promotes the health of the digestive system. It beneficially influences the composition of the gastrointestinal microflora, eliminating pathogenic microorganisms and stimulating the development of the desired strains of probiotic bacteria. It works mildly laxative, normalizes the rhythm of bowel movements and helps to get rid of chronic constipation. Due to the high content of natural enzymes and stimulation of bile production, it supports the digestion process. Moreover, it stimulates the regeneration of lesions in the gastrointestinal mucosa, accelerates the healing of erosions and ulcerations.
Aloe has a strong anti-inflammatory effect. The substances present in the leaf pulp stop the COX-1 cyclooxygenase activity pathway and limit PGE2 production. Additionally, they inhibit the release of other markers of inflammation, such as TNF-α or IL-1B. Such properties are particularly important for limiting inflammatory processes in autoimmune diseases.
Aloe supports balancing the blood sugar levels. Some compounds isolated from its leaves optimize the secretion of insulin, and in addition sensitize the tissue to its effects. In studies conducted with the participation of diabetics, it was proven that after two months of regular supplementation with aloe leaf pulp formulations in all patients there was an improvement in glucose concentration in the serum and a reduction in HbA1c level was noted.
Aloe provides antioxidant support. In its leaves, many substances with antioxidant potential have been discovered. They sweep the excess of free radicals from the organisms, which contribute to the development of many civilization diseases and accelerate aging.
Aloe strengthens immunity. In the study on rodents, it was shown that after administration of aloe juice, the production of factors responsible for stimulating the immune system increases. Moreover, mast cell formation is limited. Too many of these cells can cause inflammation and severe allergic reactions associated with excessive histamine release.

Calories are the conventional name of the unit expressing the energy value of food, the demand and energy expenditure in human body, which in fact is 1 kilocalorie (1 kcal). 1 kilocalorie is the amount of thermal energy required to heat 1 g of water and 1 degree Celsius. The SI unit of thermal energy is 1 joule (1J), equal to approximately 4,185 kcal.
The energy value is determined by the chemical composition of the food product, by means of the so-called. physiological equivalents. Most often Atwater equivalent is used: ratio for protein 4 kcal / g, for carbohydrates 4kcal / g, and for fat - 9kcal / g.
The energy value carried out with the so-called. "Caloric bomb" is equivalent to the physical energy, amounting to 4.1 kcal per 1 g carbohydrate to 5.65 kcal per 1 g protein, 9.45 kcal per 1 g of fat.
Nutritional value, determines the suitability of a food product for realizing life functions of human, the higher it is - the higher bioavailability and lower quantity for consumption for obtaining the effects.
Total fats - total fat introduced into the body in food and dietary supplements containing both saturated fatty acids and unsaturated, including the essential fatty acids. Generally fats, thanks to energy production, allows for greater energy expenditure during exercise, causing post-workout regeneration. It is partially stored in the body. It is assumed that the energy of fat is 9 kcal per 1g. In addition to the production of fatty acids, they are the building blocks of cell membranes and the white matter of the brain. EFAs are precursors of tissue hormones and biologically active compounds. It is especially important to maintain a proper balance between acids of Omega 3 and Omega 6.
Carbohydrates are an essential nutrient. They are divided into: simple sugars (monosaccharides), disaccharides and polysaccharides. In terms of the human bioavailability of carbohydrates is divided into: digestabe, those which are digested in the gastrointestinal tract by transferring energy to the tissues or cells (such as starch, fructose) and indigestable, resistant to digestive enzymes (e.g. cellulose) . Affects blood glucose levels (glycemic index) and the metabolism of insulin (insulin index). The greatest demand for carbohydrates occurs before physical activity or in the middle of it, because they increase the exercise capacity, consumed after exercise provide regeneration. In the sports diet the absorption rate it is important of carbohydrates and reactions of the organism. Available in mono-preparation supplements and part of the energetic supplements, creatine stacks, nitrogen boosters.
Dosage: according to the statistics of the Institute of Food and Nutrition, carbohydrates should comprise about 50% of daily energy intake. In some diets, used residual carbohydrate consumption, not exceeding 30g / 24h.
Sugars - is the term used to refer to the crystal structure of the carbohydrate (sugar), characterized by a sweet taste. This group includes: sucrose (obtained from sugar cane and sugar beets and natural foods), fruit sugars (fructose) and glucose. Carbohydrate intake should not exceed 10% of the energy consumed during the day meals. Excess intake of sugars leading to diseases, including diabetes, atherosclerosis and obesity. Particular caution should be performed carbohydrate intake by athletes of sculpting disciplines and people on a diet. A greater need for carbohydrates, due being easily accessible sources of energy, may be in the periods before and after workouts and before and after the fight.

Proteins (proteins, polypeptides) is a polymer, of which the basic units (monomers) are amino acids. Protein is composed of carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen and sulfur, and is an elementary nutrient necessary for the proper functioning of the body, an ingredient and a component of tissues, part of the hormones and enzymes and other bioactive substances. Protein determines the proper metabolism and energy processes, as well as all other life processes. The sources of natural proteins are foods of animal origin (including meat, fish, eggs, dairy products) and plant origin (legumes, soy). Deficiency of protein leads to protein malnutrition and a significant weakening of the body. It can lead to anaemia, reduced immunity, muscle relaxation, disorders of the digestive system. Also, overdose protein is undesirable because it can lead to acidification of the body, and interfere with the digestive system and an increase in the concentration of homocysteine in the blood. It is a component of many supplements and nutrients necessary for the proper functioning of the body, both showing a low physical activity, or training the strength and endurance competitions.
Dosage: strength athletes: approx. 1.7 - 2.5 g / 1 kg of body weight; endurance athletes and strength -endurance athletes approx. 1.3 - 2 g / 1 kg of body weight, people with low activity approx. 0.8 - 1.1 g / 1 kg of body weight / 24h. In estimating the amount of protein, you should take into account the intake of other nutrients (carbohydrates and fats)
Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis Mill.) is a tropical and subtropical plant originating from Mediterranean countries, which finds application mainly in dermatology and cosmetology (topical effect) and oral application positively influences the functioning of the digestive system.
The flesh of aloe leaves is mainly composed of water (96%), however, the remaining 4% is constituted by a concentrated dose of nutrients and substances with high biological activity. Aloe contains i.a. fiber, fatty acids, amino acids (including 7 exogenous amino acids), polysaccharides, glycoproteins, plant enzymes (including SOD - superoxide dismutase) as well as vitamins and mineral ingredients.
The internal activity of aloe is mainly directed at regulating the work of the digestive system. Aloe has antibacterial and antifungal effect, supports the treatment of stomach ulcers, alleviates inflammations, facilitates the organism’s detoxification and positively influences microflora of the digestive system, stimulating the growth of probiotic bacteria.
External activity of aloe - on skin - contributes to strengthening the barrier of epidermis and also facilitates repair processes in skin, counteracts infections, stimulates the production of new collagen fibers. Additionally, it has softening and shielding effect.
