Suprising benefits of Aloe Vera
Aloe
Vera is really a medicinal herb that was cultivated by humans for years and
years. I will share to you three very valuable medicinal uses of Aloe Vera used
for years to come and/or pass the data on to others. Aloe Vera is really a
succulent, soft plant which includes many pointy leaves that happen to be
thickest in the bottom, then work their far to a very sharp point. There are
also many little shiny white teeth on both sides in the leaf just like a
serrated blade. The first on the medicinal uses of Aloe Vera that I'm going to
share together with you is the most commonly known, burn/wound/sunburn
application. If you ever possess sunburn, a normal burn or perhaps a minor
wound…applying the sap from the inside in the aloe vera leaf can be extremely
soothing indeed as well as provide healing and rejuvenating results. Other
medicinal uses of Aloe Vera include one study that showed Aloe Vera traces were
accountable for lowering the blood glucose levels of diabetics. People can eat
Aloe Vera yoghurt or drink it in special herbals. Finally, the last with the
medicinal uses of Aloe Vera that I will give out today. Aloe Vera extracts have
already been used to treat ulcerative olitis and contains successfully reduced
the redness. There are many other medicinal uses of Aloe Vera that I might go
on about for pages…from creams, ointments, soaps, yogurts, sunscreen, sunburn
relief and healing etc. No wonder people happen to be cultivating this very
helpful herb for hundreds of years. Which one with the medicinal uses of
natural aloe-Vera would you benefit most from? It could never hurt to possess
one around!
Brighten Your Skin Using Natural Remedies
Hydroquinone,
the most common ingredient in skin lightening creams has been linked to cancer
and ironically ochronosis, also known as skin darkening. Yikes! Dark and dull skin (The dark patches) are in
fact Hyper pigmentation, a sign of sun damage caused by an increased melanin
production, which happens when the skin is trying to protect itself from over exposure
to UV ray, environmental pollution, a medical condition and the only way to
truly reduce dark patches is to ex-foliate regularly: Removing surface layers of
damaged skin with lighten dark spots over time as new skin replaces damaged
skin. And you can save yourselves time and money by using natural remedies that
will effectively brighten and lighten your skin complexion.
1. Yoghurt
Yoghurt, a by-product of milk, has many nutrients that are good for the
skin. It also contains lactic acid that has bleaching properties. When applied
externally helps to clear the skin and moisturises it.
Simply spread some fresh yoghurt onto your face and let it sit for 20
minutes. Rinse off as usual. As an alternative you can also try mixing yoghurt
with a tablespoon of honey or lemon for best results.
2. Lemon
A natural exfoliator, comes into play in this skin lightening remedies.
After cleansing, slice open a lemon hold one half by the rind and rub the juicy
side all over your face, being careful to avoid your eyes. The alpha-hydroxyl acids
(AHAs) in the lemon encourage ex-foliation by sloughing away the outer layer of
the dead skin cells, improving circulation and stimulating new cell growth. The
fruit acid dissolves the old skin cells and making room for the new. Leave the
juice on for five minutes or less, if the stinging is too much then rinse off. This
treatment is even more effective in a steamy bathroom or sauna.
3.

Honey helps to bleach skin while also acting as a moisturising agent. Dry
skin is a common factor that contributes to uneven skin tone. Honey also has
antibacterial properties that can help fade age spots and acne scars. Apply

off. Leave the honey on for as much as 20 minutes the rinse off with lukewarm
water. This remedy will help remove dead skin cells, making your skin appear
brighter and fresher than before.
4. Orange
The most important ingredient in skin care is Vitamin C, which you can
get in abundance form oranges. Plus, Oranges have bleaching property that can
lighten your skin tone. It has been found that regular consumption of fresh orange juice can greatly improve the overall texture of your skin as well as its
suppleness. Grind dried Orange peels into powder mix with Yoghurt and apply to
your face and neck to get brilliant skin brightening results. You can also mix
a tsp of honey to lighten pigmentation marks and to help unveil soft shining
skin tone. It should be done twice a week.
