GANDHI AND ALOE VERA

If you've seen the title of this post and are wondering what possible connection there can be between Gandhi and Aloe Vera, here's an extract from a letter he wrote to his biographer Romain Rolland:

'You ask me what were the secret forces that sustained me during my long fasts.  Well, it was my unshakable faith in God, my simple and frugal life style, and the Aloe whose benefits I discovered upon my arrival in South Africa at the end of the 19th century.'

Gandhi didn't have the benefits of this specific drink, but plenty of people (and animals) have benefited from it since his discovery of Aloe!

SEE WITH VISION

I had an eye-test a few days ago and my optician eulogized, as she always does, over my eyesight and the fact that after more than 20 years there are still no changes needed to my lenses.

So I told her about Forever Vision - which I take daily and which contains bilberry, lutein and zeaxanthin and which can improve the circulation to the eyes to support normal healthy eyesight.  It also helps protect the eyes from degeneration, particularly in the macula area of the retina.  (Code 235 in my online Aloe Store)
