Support during chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatments

Effects of Aloe Vera Arborescens in Supporting Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy

Aloe Vera Arborescens has been widely studied as a natural complement during cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy, due to its ability to ease side effects, protect healthy tissues, and strengthen the body.

1. Immunomodulating and Regenerative Action

Rich in acemannan, a bioactive polysaccharide that:

  • Stimulates the production of macrophages and T lymphocytes

  • Enhances immune response without overstimulation

  • Supports the regeneration of tissues damaged by chemo/radiotherapy

This may help reduce infections and support faster recovery between treatment cycles.

2. Relief of Chemotherapy Side Effects

Aloe may help ease:

  • Mild nausea

  • Gastrointestinal irritation

  • General fatigue

  • Loss of appetite

It acts as a general tonic and digestive protector.

3. Protection of the Gastrointestinal and Oral Mucosa

Mucositis (mouth sores) is a common side effect.

Oral or topical use of aloe may:

  • Accelerate healing

  • Reduce pain and inflammation

  • Help prevent secondary fungal infections

4. Natural Antioxidant Action

Oxidative stress caused by chemotherapy and radiotherapy can damage healthy cells.

Aloe Vera Arborescens contains:

  • Vitamins A, C, E, flavonoids, and antioxidant enzymes

These help neutralize free radicals and protect healthy tissues during treatment.

5. Post-Treatment Recovery Support

Aloe may assist with:

  • Restoring intestinal balance

  • Reinforcing energy levels

  • Regenerating cells and tissues

Especially beneficial in the months following treatment.
