Digestive Digestinol Reference

Digestinol Reference

Research has shown that Aloe Mucilaginous Polysaccharides have a remarkable ability to normalize all of these damaging processes, which has the effect of enhancing the immune system function through improved digestion. Aloe mucilaginous polysaccharides act as a potent anti-inflammatory agent, stopping the damage and leakage of the intestinal wall, thereby taking the stress off the immune system.

Digestinol® contains the highest concentration by far of stabilized Aloe mucilaginous polysaccharides available today. It is an all natural nutriceutical which exhibits NO negative side effects. It may be taken in conjunction with any medication or supplement. It is tasteless, odorless, safe for children and mothers in all stages of pregnancy and nursing.

Aloe Mucilaginous Polysaccharides have direct anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal, anti-yeast and anti-parasite effects. Chronic yeast growth can be controlled so the normal, healthy flora can then thrive more easily. Furthermore, the macrophages, monocytes, antibodies and T-cells are stimulated. Phagocytosis (when large white blood cells engulf particles) is dramatically increased to ingest foreign proteins. Aloe mucilaginous polysaccharides increases the number and intensity of all immune cells in the body.
