The properties and benefits of Aloe Arborescens and the homemade recipe, following the indications of Father Romano Zago.

All information published on this page is for information purposes and should not be considered as medical advice or prescriptions or of any other nature. The article is inspired by the official book of Father Romano Zago which deals precisely with Aloe Arborescens and its properties . In the book you will find further information and technical and scientific insights, as well as numerous testimonies on the use of this medicinal plant.

Aloe Arborescens: the plant

L ' Aloe arborescens is a succulent plant from the Aloacee family, originally from North Africa and Latin America. In Italy this variety of Aloe is widespread mainly in the coasts of the Mediterranean, the Adriatic and the Tyrrhenian Sea, as well as a good part of Southern Italy, thanks to both the mild and sunny climate, and to the position and the currents they give to these places.

Since ancient times, Aloe has been used both as an ornamental plant and as a medicinal plant, in particular for its known detoxifying, soothing and regenerating virtues.

Today numerous scientific studies have done nothing but confirm many of the beneficial virtues that our ancestors had already attributed to it centuries before.

Aloe in history

The first evidence of the use of Aloe comes from ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, where it was called "the plant of immortality", in fact also used in the mixtures used for mummification (probably due to its natural antioxidant effect).

We then move on to Hippocrates (460-337 BC), father of current medicine. In his numerous medical books he praises its healing properties.

Discorides (20-70 AD) talks about it in "De materia medica", listing the properties of Aloe as healing, anti-inflammatory and useful in skin infections.

Pliny the Elder, in the treatise "Historia Naturalis", describes the therapeutic properties of Aloe.

Also in several passages of the Bible it is mentioned: in the book of Numbers, in the Song of Songs and in the Gospel of St. John (19.3) as a component of the mixture used to anoint the body of Jesus after the descent from the cross.

Tibetan medicine compared to Ayurvedic medicine still use it today for their preparations.

The Templars used aloe as an ingredient in a special drink they called "Jerusalem Elixir".

In the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, the medicinal use of aloe spread to the northern regions of Europe.

Christopher Columbus, who went down in history as "the explorer of the New World" in one of his writings declares that four plants are indispensable for man: wheat, vine, olive tree and aloe. The first nourishes, the second rejoices, the third gives harmony and the fourth gives health.

As you can see, the relationship between Aloe and human being is rooted in the mists of time and is not the latest news of the moment. However, even more incredible are the discoveries made in recent decades by a Brazilian friar residing in Rio Grande Do Sul, in southern Brazil.

The testimony of Father Zago

In his first book entitled "Can You Heal Cancer" Father Romano Zago talks about his personal testimony in the use of a natural recipe based on Aloe Arborescens, honey and distillate, for the treatment of various pathologies and one in particular, which it is precisely Cancer.

In order not to arouse useless illusions it is necessary to specify that the friar does not guarantee healing and does not give incentives to abandon conventional care, on the contrary he considers it "an extra help" capable of promoting improvement and in some cases even complete recovery.

It is the friar himself who testifies to having followed many people with Cancer, to heal even in difficult situations.

To be honest it must be said that there are several studies that confirm the presence of active ingredients with anti- tumor and anti-metastatic activity of Aloe . Just to name a few:

Having said this, these are still preliminary studies and in-depth studies are needed to affirm with absolute certainty that Aloe can have any antitumor value.

Active ingredients of Aloe Arborescens

The healing properties of Aloe Arborescens are the result of a truly unique phytocomplex , which includes a wide range of active ingredients, present both in the gel (internal pulp) and in the outer skin of the leaves of this plant.

In particular, in the Aloe gel we find acemannan , a muco-polysacaride to which numerous studies attribute anti-inflammatory, soothing, healing and gastroprotective properties, since this substance helps to protect the mucous membranes of the stomach and intestines. The presence of this substance is one of the reasons why Aloe is often taken as a juice, to treat gastrointestinal disorders, such as gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux, irritable bowel, etc.

In the peel, on the other hand, we find above all anthraquinones , substances such as aloin and aloe-emodin, which are mainly attributed laxative properties, but which have recently been "rediscovered" (see the studies published earlier), due to their alleged antitumor action and antimetastatic.

Obviously that's not all, Aloe Arborescens contains numerous other nutrients, the most important are listed below:

Vitamins (Vit. A, group B, C, E, folic acid)
Fatty acids (betasitosterol caprylic acid)
Mono-polysaccharides (sugars) 0.2-0.3% fresh gel
Mannose and Glucose (in ratio 1: 3) fast intestinal absorption
Acemannan and Aloemannan, rapid intestinal absorption, enhances immune defenses, counteracts diabetes, arteriosclerosis, cholesterol, HIV inhibition, antigenic function. Effects 1-2 months after administration.
Essential amino acids (participate in protein synthesis). They are those that the human organism cannot synthesize autonomously in sufficient quantity to meet its own needs and must therefore be taken from the outside.
Non-essential amino acids
Mineral salts
Enzymes, amylases, phosphatases, lipases, catalases, bradykinases, cellulases, etc.
Saponins, marked haemolytic, purifying and antiseptic properties
Lecithins
Alexin B against lymphocytic leukemia
AFT 1011 induces the activity of lymphocytes against cancer cells

Properties of Aloe Arborescens

In addition to the alleged anticancer properties, of which I have already mentioned, the juice of Aloe Arborescens, or the smoothie prepared following the instructions of Father Romano Zago, can bring many other health benefits.

Antioxidant

Energizing
Regenerating
