1. Detoxification Kombucha contains substantial amounts of glucuronic acid (GA). GA is well known as a detoxicant. In the body it combines with toxins like pharmaceuticals and environmental pollutants. It then converts them into compounds that are soluble and the body can excrete. Drinking kombucha may also help prevent tissues from absorbing industrial toxins in the environment. 2. Antioxidants Kombucha contains abundant antioxidants including vitamins E, C, beta-carotene, and other carotenoids. Like black tea, kombucha also contains polyphenols and other compounds with antioxidant powers. But because it is fermented, kombucha is much more powerful than plain tea. Its antioxidant activity has been found to be 100 times higher than vitamin C and 25 times higher than vitamin E. For that reason drinking traditional kombucha may help cure chronic illnesses caused by oxidative stress. 3. Energy Kombucha sets iron free from black tea. That helps increase levels of blood hemoglobin, and improves oxygen flow to tissues. It also improves the body's absorption of other non-heme (plant-derived) iron. 4. Immunity Oxidative stress suppresses the immune system but kombucha's high levels of vitamin C support immunity. Its antioxidant power also protects against cell damage, inflammatory diseases, suppressed immunity, and tumors. 5. Gastric Illnesses Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are toxic to the gut. They can lead to gastric ulcers. NSAID can disrupt blood circulation to the stomach's mucous membrane. Kombucha has been shown to effectively heal gastric ulceration. The researchers believe the fermented tea protects the mucin content of the stomach. Its antioxidant activity also protects the lining of the gut. Kombucha also reduces gastric acid secretion that can damage the mucous membrane. In fact, kombucha has been found as effective in healing ulcers as prescription omeprazole (brand name Prilosec). 6. Obesity Kombucha helps balance the metabolism. Animal studies show the tea may cause weight loss by encouraging calorie restriction.

1. Skin Aging Aloe is an established topical remedy for skin. But a 2009 study found that taking aloe orally reduces facial wrinkles. In the study, 30 healthy women aged 45 or older received aloe vera gel as a supplement. One group took a low dose (1,200 mg/day) and the second group took a high-dose (3,600 mg/day). The researchers measured signs of skin aging at the beginning and end of the study. After just 90 days, the researchers found that facial wrinkles improved significantly in both groups. However, in the lower-dose group, facial elasticity also improved. How does it work? The researchers found that aloe increased collagen production, resulting in improved skin structure and fewer wrinkles. They also found that aloe decreased gene activity that causes collagen damage. 2. Psoriasis Swedish researchers found that a cream containing aloe vera is effective in treating psoriasis. They conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 60 patients with psoriasis. Patients were given either an aloe vera extract (0.5%) cream or a placebo cream to apply three times a day for five consecutive days per week. The study lasted 16 weeks, with only four weeks of active treatment and 12 months of follow-up. By the end of the study, the aloe vera cream cured 25 of 30 psoriasis patients, or 83.3%. Only 2 of 30 patients in the placebo group were cured (6.6%). 3. Cancer Consistent with its other skin benefits, aloe vera may also prevent and treat skin cancer. A study from the University of Belgrade School of Medicine found that aloe vera and its constituents inhibit skin cell proliferation associated with skin cancer. The researchers irradiated human skin cells to simulate sun damage and trigger the process of proliferation that leads to skin tumors. They found that treating cells with aloe-emodin, a constituent of aloe, significantly inhibited proliferation. This confirmed aloe's benefit in halting tumor progression following sun exposure. But its cancer effects aren't limited to skin. Studies also show that aloe vera may help prevent cervical cancer. A study published in the Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention found that a cream containing aloe vera, curcumin, reetha, and amla (brand name “Basant”) is an effective and safe therapy for the clearance of cervical human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Researchers studied a group of women with HPV that had not yet progressed to high-grade cervical neoplasias (i.e., cervical pre-cancer). Of the women who used the Basant vaginal cream for 30 consecutive days, 87.7% cleared the HPV infection compared to 73.3% of the placebo group.
