According to Fortune magazine, the U.S. alone spent almost $ 15 Billion a year for cancer research. And despite this amount, cure for cancer is still in the blank. This is probably the reason why there is a growing percentage of the world population that is turning to alternative medicine especially for cancer and other degenerative diseases where modern medicine has no cure. One of the popular alternative cures for cancer is a plant called “aloe arborescens”. A close relative of this plant is “aloe vera” (aloe barbadesis), a house plant.

I was fortunate enough to read the book entitled “Cancer Can Be Cured,” written by Fr. Romano Zago, OFM. This so-called cure was discovered by the missionary group of Order of Friars Minor (OFM) in a small shanty town in Rio Grande do Sol in Brazil. The recipe is very simple. You can try it at home provided you have access to the plant.

The recipe consists of 3 large leaves of aloe (or ½ kilo) and ½ kilo of pure honey. Simply mix these two ingredients using a blender. Store this in a fridge using a dark-colored container. Take a tablespoon of the mixture 2 to 3 times a day before meals for 10 days. Stop drinking the mixture for 2 days and continue again for 10 days until cured.

As of this writing, there is no clear scientific journal or research that will prove that aloe is indeed the ultimate cure for cancer. In contrary, there are hundreds of word of mouth testimonials about the healing effects of this medicinal plant.

In the advent of various modern drugs and therapies for cancer like chemotherapy, interferon, radiation therapy, endostatin, cleevec, etc., cancer or the “big C” is still a curse to mankind. While there is still no real cure for Mr. C, I guess aloe is the next best option.
