Aloe Vera is believed to be a food of long-lasting youth and rapid healing. The anti-inflammatory power in acute inflammation is one of its best known actions. The gel of Aloe Vera contains enzymes, minerals, anti-microbial and amino acids that aid in digestion, reduce inflammation and helps cleanse and soothe the body.
Cucumbers are fantastic for cleansing our bodies. The skins of cucumbers are high in silicon, although they are often grown with pesticides and waxed in stores, so it is best to choose organic. They are a natural diuretic, reduce inflammation, relieve stomach acid and provide a soothing, cleansing effect.
Ingredients
- 2-3 leaves of Aloe Vera
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1 small cucumber
- ½ lemon (skin on if organic)
- ¼ small pineapple
