HIGH QUALITY ALOE EXTRACT PREPARATION

GASTROINTESTINAL PROTECTION

ANTIBACTERIAL AND ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY
In animal models of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, aloe vera was shown to reduce levels of TNF-α and leukocyte adhesion.9 The study authors noted that aloe vera exerts no known antibiotic effect on H. pylori, but rather, its beneficial properties come from its suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, TNF-α, IL-6, and leukocyte adhesion. Additional studies indicate that the complex array of polyphenols, indoles, phytosterols and other phytochemicals in aloe vera may have antibacterial effects on organisms beyond H. pylori, including strains of Shigella, Streptococcus, Enterobacter and Staphylococcus (including MRSA).The polysaccharides in aloe vera extract have been evaluated for antioxidant activity and have been demonstrated to be effective in scavenging hydrogen peroxide, nitric oxide, superoxide, DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radicals, and others. In a rat model of chemically-induced myocardial oxidative stress, prophylactic treatment with aloe vera polysaccharides protected against cardiotoxicity in adose-dependent manner, as evidenced by reduced levels of lactate dehydrogenase, creatine phosphokinase, cardiac catalase and superoxide dismutase, with elevated levels of glutathione.
