“Kapillaren bestimmen unser Schicksal“ (“Capillaries determine
our fate”) was the title of my bestseller about the benefits of
Aloe vera. Since that time many have had positive experiences
with the Aloe vera ‘vital drink‘ and can confirm the power and
efficacy of this unique medicinal plant.
Again and again it has been impressively demonstrated just
how important healthy capillaries are: only when blood can flow
unobstructed through the capillaries are tissues and organs
supplied with essential oxygen.
Like no other medicinal plant Aloe vera can influence the general
condition plus the normal and healthy inner diameter of our
capillaries. This explains why Aloe vera is so vital for our health.
Insight into the correlation between stress, capillary response
and the benefits of Aloe vera has been heightened through the
latest research into the subject. And in the process it has been
revealed that:
General stress factors have increased
Efficacy of Aloe vera can be further enhanced.
In order to offset increasing stress factors or already-existing
changes in the vessels, I have further developed the use of Aloe
vera. Through combination with silicon and an essential fatty
acid, gamma linolenic acid (GLA), the plants healing effect can
be enhanced. That is what this brochure is all about.
May it serve as a guide to help maintain health, vitality and joy
of living.

➛ We live in cities and closed houses
➛ We cook our foods
➛ We eat too much sugar and too much fat
➛ We suffer from lack of exercise
➛ And some of us smoke and/or drink a lot of alcohol
All of these things, which have come to be normal as it's
blueprint, our genes, originate from a time when such things did
not exist. The body, therefore, reacts defensively to many things.
In addition to physical stress factors, more and more people
suffer from mental stress, as they are often concerned about
their job, their children or the future. We could say:
The mental pressure is increasing.
And one day, we might just “close down” while “everything
comes to a halt”. Behind this, a simple mechanism also lies
hidden on the physical level:
The capillaries are constricting.
Our lifestyle and
where it’s leading to

5
Capillaries are the thinnest blood vessels. They are so thin that
erythrocytes can only pass through one after the other. In the
capillaries area, and only there, oxygen and nutrients from blood
are released into tissue and cells.
When capillaries constrict, tissue and cells are no longer
adequately supplied with blood. Initially, this has no effect on
the nutrient supply, as we only need food every couple of hours.
However, without oxygen we can only survive a few minutes. And
this is the heart of the problem, because:
Constriction of capillaries rapidly leads
to lack of oxygen.
In order that the cells nevertheless survive, they switch over in
this case to other mechanisms for energy production – namely
without oxygen. This only functions for a short period and results
in a marked increase in acid, leading to:
A lack of oxygen, which further leads
to hyperacidity.
Lack of oxygen and hyperacidity are an enormous burden for the
organism, which leads to the body entering an unhealthy cycle in
relation to illness and health.

If vital organs are affected by this cycle – which is unfortunately
quite often the case – modern endemic diseases are the
consequence. Due to our lifestyle habits they are also known as
diseases of civilization.
These include:
➛ Heart attack and stroke
➛ Chronic infections and cancer
➛ Hypertension and arteriosclerosis
➛ Allergies and neurodermatitis
These are mainly chronic, i.e. protracted diseases that are
difficult to treat. However, a more decisive factor is:
Diseases of civilization are the most common cause
of death today
Diseases of the blood vessels like heart attacks and strokes
account for approx. 50% of all deaths in Germany.
Another 25% percent are attributed to cancer.
This is where modern medicine can no longer cope with the
situation. The reason is that symptoms are treated rather than
causes. However, if the causes - lifestyle / capillary constriction
– are not altered, the symptoms will reoccur. We are therefore
dependent on doctors, pills and the industry. Which means:
Medicine has so far not been able to combat modern
endemic diseases.
The consequences – modern
endemic diseases

7
More and more people recognize these correlations and are
turning to holistic medicine.
Which means:
➛ Treatment of actual causes
➛ Observing individual lifestyle
➛ Using natural medicine
When we look at the vicious circle of modern endemic diseases,
we naturally come across Aloe vera, because:
➛ 1. Aloe vera can rectify the cause for constricted capillaries
➛ 2. Aloe vera is a healthy plant like fruits and vegetables and
therefore vital for a healthy life.
➛ 3. Aloe vera is one of the oldest medicinal plants in the world
and is rich in tradition.
What is the secret behind Aloe vera as such an outstanding
remedy for holistic medicine?
Its ability to restore healthy blood flow in the
capillaries.
This must be the aim for our efforts in maintaining good health.
We can therefore say:
Aloe vera is an outstanding remedy in holistic
medicine.

The Aloe vera story is unparalleled. The wealth of knowledge
and experience of this extraordinary medicinal plant dates back
thousands of years ago and spans all continents.
Like no other medicinal plant Aloe vera is ideal for
external and internal application
Already in ancient times its alleviating properties were
appreciated for the treatment of
➛ Skin and burn injuries
➛ Fungi and parasite infestation
➛ Suppurative abscess
➛ Migraine
➛ Sunburn and many other diseases
In the early years of the past century Aloe vera was valued
in medical circles as a renowned and valued medicinal plant.
The triumphant progress of the chemical and pharmaceutical
industry, however, temporarily edged it out of the “natural
pharmacy”.
However, 5000 years of experience with Aloe vera have
guaranteed its continued existence. And everyday use of Aloe
vera around the globe provides new daily insight.
Aloe vera –
5000 years of healing expertise
Aloe vera – The desert lily
The strong, arm-like succulent arms of the Aloe vera leaves reach out in all directions.
A vigorous, glowing yellow inflorescence grows vertically from its center up to the
desert sun.
This impressive appearance may have been the motivation behind mankind’s first
attempts, thousands of years ago, to try out Aloe vera. And people all over the globe
have had the same amazing experience, over and over again:
Aloe vera really helps!

What is so special about Aloe vera? This question leads us to the
ingredients, as they reveal significant differences vs. other drugs.
Pharmaceuticals generally have only one active ingredient. This
active ingredient is, however, often accompanied by several
side-effects.
Medicinal plants usually contain groups of ingredients used to
treat a variety of symptoms and complaints.
In comparison, Aloe vera appears to be a true “natural medicine
cabinet” – because:
Scientists have so far discovered
over 150 active ingredients.
The spectrum ranges from A as in acemannan to Z as in zinc.
Although some of the ingredients are present in only minor
concentrations, this is precisely the secret of Aloe vera: It is not
only the efficacy of a single vital agent or command transmitter:
It is the interplay of all substances that enable the
positive effects of Aloe vera.
Science also refers to these synergistic effects.
The secret of Aloe

10
In the meantime, Aloe vera is the subject of scientists the
world over. And the more research is conducted, the stronger
the verification of the extensive wealth of natural medical
knowledge.
Folk medicine often describes the benefits of Aloe vera as
follows: The 4 D’s:
➛ Deacidifying
➛ Decontaminating
➛ Degreasing
➛ Detoxifying
These very different positive effects are based on a joint mode
of action. It encompasses the restoration of the healthy and
normal inner diameter of the capillaries in areas where vessels
constrict due to stress, malnutrition and environmental pollution.
The most important function of Aloe vera is the
restoration of the healthy and normal inner diameter
of capillaries.
To this effect, the active ingredients of Aloe vera have an effect
on the microscopic cavernous tissue of the inner walls of the
capillaries, which is enlarged in many people. The Aloe vera vital
drink has an effect on this cavernous tissue: they can again
shrink so that blood flow is improved to the tissue and cells.
In those areas that are adequately supplied with oxygen, the
tissues, cells and organs can regenerate. Acids are neutralized,
toxins and waste products are slowly carried away. We could say:
The improved blood flow enables
the self-healing of the body.
Aloe vera and its benefits

11
We have already ascertained that the positive effects of Aloe vera are
an interplay of all active ingredients, or that is to say:
The efficacy of the ingredients function like an orchestra.
Here too, sound experience results from the interplay of all
instruments and not only from violins or trumpets.
Nevertheless, science is endeavouring to understand the efficacy of
the single ingredients and repeatedly encounter amazing findings. For
example:
Acemannan:
➛ a body protection system
➛ supports cell regeneration
➛ detoxifies the body
Phytosterols:
➛ are responsible for the positive long-term effects on blood sugar
Polysaccharides
➛ have a strong antioxidant effect and protect heart and tissues
against free radicals
Trace and ultratrace elements
➛ are elements that are nowadays rarely found in food like gallium or
titanium and these play an important role in metabolism
All of these substances are of natural origin and are not medications,
in a conventional sense. Aloe vera supports the body to heal from the
inside. Or as the famous physician Hippocrates explained:
“The physician helps, but nature heals.”
Aloe vera –
Healing with nature

12
In general, Aloe vera can be taken for:
➛ as a prophylactic measure for health improvement
➛ as a supplement to orthodox medical treatment
How to use Aloe vera
Winter
Summer
Fall Spring
The following simple rules apply for intake of Aloe vera:
Aloe vera vital drink should be consumed long-term
The positive effects will first be noticeable after a self-healing
process over a period of several weeks. Therefore, the Aloe vera
vital drink should be taken every day for at least 6 months.
The removal of old toxins and waste products is the reason for
the occasional initial aggravation. Therefore, the following must
be observed:
The more severe the disease the slower the start.
If you want to use Aloe vera for treatment of a severe chronic
disease, start with a significantly reduced dose, i.e. 3x5 ml/day
and increase to 3x30 ml/day over a 4 to 6 week period.

13
In the meantime, Aloe vera is used to a greater extent in the treatment
of contemporary endemic diseases.
These include in particular:
Cardiovascular and vessel diseases
Aloe vera vital drink should be taken permanently in cases of
hypertension, arteriosclerosis, high blood sugar and increased
metabolism rates that are burdening the vascular system or that have
already damaged the vessels.
Chronic infections and gastro-intestinal diseases
A lot of people suffer from a slightly irritated gastro-intestinal tract or
even from a chronic inflammation of the latter (Morbus Crohn, Colitis
Ulcerosa) – in this case, Aloe vera should be taken over a longer period
of time with caution in the beginning and a gradual increase.
Allergies, skin diseases, neurodermatitis
As this also represents a protracted or even chronic process,
permanent intake is advisable with a slow start. The same applies
for other chronic diseases like Parkinson, rheumatism,
multiple sclerosis and cancer.
The prerequisite for successful treatment is endurance and regularity
of intake as well as the quality of the vital drink or Aloe vera product.
Aloe vera and diseases

14
The successful use of Aloe vera treatment is dependent on the
use of Aloe vera in premium quality. Please take the following
criteria into consideration when buying and using the product:
Do not use Aloe vera drinks made from
concentrates, but only Aloe vera vital drinks made of
non-heated direct gel
During the production of concentrates, some of the sensitive
ingredients are unfortunately partly destroyed. Moreover, the
concentrates are subsequently diluted 1:200 with water, and
thereby lose their efficacy even further.
It is prohibited to sell whole leaf juices containing
aloin; only aloin-free vital drinks made of the pure
crystalline gel of the inner leaf fillet may be sold.
Aloe vera quality features

15
To assure the numerous quality features cited, verification
is essential. This can only be implemented by independent
institutions.
Use only Aloe vera products with origin and
production certificates
Important certificates are, for example, those of the International
Aloe Science Council (IASC) for organic cultivation of the plants,
processing and marketing as well as further country-specific
certificates for premium quality assurance like the Fresenius
Quality Seal in Germany.
Enhanced efficacy can be attained
through the addition of honey.
Historical sources also describe adding honey to enhance the
taste and efficacy of the Aloe vera components. The Franciscan
father Romano Zago from Brazil discovered, while searching
old recipes that adding honey strongly enhances the efficacy
of Aloe vera. This has meanwhile been scientifically tested and
confirmed. The ideal honey mixture is 9% in Aloe vera drinking
gel.
Be sure to observe these quality features when
purchasing and drinking Aloe vera.
The traditional intake of the Aloe vera vital drink with honey
can lead to significant improvement of the symptoms in many
diseases. However, there are also cases for which the Aloe vera
vital drinks require particular enhancement. Recent capillary
research is engaged in this subject.

In the introduction I already pointed out that increasing stress
factors caused by lifestyle and environment make advanced
development in the use of Aloe vera worthwhile.
Because in addition to capillary constriction there are further
factors that can impair blood flow.
These include:
➛ 1. Instability of fine blood vessels
➛ 2. viscous poorly-flowing blood
Instability of blood vessels
With increasing age vessels lose their stability. This especially
has a negative effect on fine capillaries. If the delicate wall of
these thin vessels is lacking in stability, they can collapse and
the blood flow is impaired.
To remedy this impairment we need a mineral that has long been
neglected in standard medicine: silicon.
The following applies not only for hair and nails, but also for our
vessels:
Silicon is essential for stability and elasticity
Despite the small amount in the body, silicon is essential
for many processes, that is to say it is vital. It has been
demonstrated that a lack of silicon can have significant negative
effects on stability and elasticity of bones, tissues and vessels.
New capillary research

17
Viscidity of the blood
The second important aspect is the flow properties of the blood.
If there is insufficient space for the erythrocytes they tend to
stack up and the blood becomes ‘sticky’. This is often the case
where things generally tend to slow up – in the capillaries, for
instance. In the medical world this is sometimes referred to as
sludging. The red blood cells roll up like a money roll.
When that occurs, there is danger that the blood will coagulate
- a mechanism that can trigger a heart attack. For this reason
many people take anticoagulants today.
However, in this case too nature’s pharmacy can provide support
with a natural agent: Gamma linolenic acid also known as GLA
which belongs to the omega-3 fatty acids family. It’s job:
Gamma linolenic acid reduces blood viscidity.
A perfect source for GLA is the oil of the evening primrose. This
plant has been known for its medical properties for a long time
now and plays an important part in the metabolism of our fatty
acids – one could say like a lubricant for the blood flow.
Gamma linolenic acid is also very important from the point of
view of capillary science in terms of the regeneration of healthy
blood and oxygen supply.
One result of the new capillary research has shown that:
Silicon and gamma linolenic acid additionally
strengthen the efficacy of Aloe vera.

18
For a long time, the medical world has neglected silicon.
However, this is changing now as modern research is constantly
finding new evidence for the significance of this mineral for our
body.
➛ Silicon is essential for the stability and elasticity of the bones
➛ Silicon plays an essential part in fighting arteriosclerosis
➛ Silicon is essential for the stability and resilience of hair and
nails
➛ Silicon is an immunostimulant
In the past – when only whole grain products were available
- our intake of silicon was primarily via cereal foodstuffs, i.e.
wholemeal flour. This changed when we began to prefer white
flour as superfine flour. Whole meal in particular contains
valuable silicon in a significant concentration. Refined white flour
contains only a minor amount of silicon. The consequence:
An inadequate supply of silicon nowadays.
What happens when the body is not adequately supplied with
silicon?
Silicon –
The underestimated mineral

19
Lack of silicon promotes arteriosclerosis.
Silicon is of great importance for even the smallest of vessels:
our capillaries. A lack of silicon here leads to instability of the
wafer-thin vessel walls. The consequence:
Lack of silicon promotes the collapse of the
capillaries.
Therefore, according to capillary science, an increase in silicon
intake is extremely important.
What happens when
silicon is missing?
Healthy vessel OcclusionCalcification
In Asia femoral neck fractures are significantly lower than in
Europe. Why? The intake of silicon in Europe is lower than in
Asia. And scientific studies have ascertained:
A lack of silicon reduces bone density.
This is even more serious when the intake of calcium and silicon
in many people, particularly the elderly is insufficient. Silicon
is the partner mineral that allows the bones to absorb calcium.
This in turn, promotes bone regeneration.
Lack of silicon also directly affects the vessels. The medical
world has long suspected a correlation between arteriosclerosis
and low silicon intake.

20
Even when Aloe vera is taken correctly it may not lead to
optimum results. This may be due to a lack of silicon, which
results in weak vessel walls. The consequence:
Despite the efficacy of Aloe vera a part of the
capillaries remain occluded.
This mainly affects elderly people as silicon absorption is
reduced at an advanced age.
As Aloe vera itself contains only a minimum of silicon, an
additional silicon source is required. Capillary research has
revealed the following:
Aloe vera and supplementary silicon lead to an
increased efficacy for vessels.
Silicon intake in Western nutrition is insufficient. First and
foremost, as only the plant-based silicon can be optimally
absorbed by the human body. Stinging nettle contains large
amounts of silicon. Capillary research has revealed:
Stinging nettle in combination with Aloe vera is an
optimum source of health.
Silicon and Aloe vera

21
The evening primrose originates from North America. There, for
over 500 years, Indians have valued the curative powers of this
mysterious plant which opens its golden-yellow blossoms in the
evening and fades again with the rising of the sun.
Owing to its extremely high gamma linolenic acid content,
the oil from the seeds of the evening primrose is used. The oil
is traditionally used in the treatment of neurodermatitis and
psoriasis.
New application areas include premenstrual syndromes, i.e. the
days prior to menstruation. Gamma linolenic acid enhances the
general physical condition during this phase, but should be taken
over a longer period of time.
Capillary researchers have analyzed the correlation between the
flow properties of blood and gamma linolenic acid. The following
was revealed:
Gamma linolenic acid improves the flow properties of
blood and neutralizes viscidity.
And with improved blood flow the oxygen supply is also enhanced.
In this case the efficacy of Aloe vera is also promoted and
supported. Therefore, the oil of the evening primrose and the
gamma linolenic acid it contains is the perfect combination for
use with Aloe vera. The outcome of the capillary research:
Silicon and gamma linolenic acid promote the efficacy
of Aloe vera on capillaries and thereby enhance the
oxygen supply to cells.

Comeback of a medicinal herb

22
Acid-base balance
In an acidic environment erythrocytes are no longer optimally
formable and can only pass slowly through the constricted
capillaries. The consequence:
Hyperacidity impairs the supply situation.
Therefore, a balanced diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables
is extremely important. Those who cannot regularly fulfill this,
should increase their intake of alkaline minerals.
normal erythrocyte elastic erythrocyte

capillaries

Acid-base balance when hyperacidic
The significance of the acid-base balance is already known. In
line with capillary science it must be noted that:
hyperacidity causes erythrocytes to lose their
flexibility and elasticity.
