Who Can You Trust?

It takes more to be an "expert" on Aloe vera and the acetylated mannose-rich polymer called "acemannan" than self-proclamation. This is one of the reasons why even a recognized, bona-fide expert on the subject like Dr. Santiago Rodriguez, Ph.D. will subject his findings to independent laboratories for confirmation testing.

Legitimate, accurate test results are always of value, even when they show that you have more work to do to reach your goal. Of course, it is always a huge bonus when you learn from those tests that you have met, or even surpassed your expectations, as is the case in the dramatic comparison results presented below:

Would a "Dr." intentionally misinform?

If you have stumbled onto any of the web sites of organizations or individuals who would intentionally deceive you in the interest of selling you their own products, and you choose to get to the truth, the quintessential, bona-fide expert on Aloe vera, and the amazing research scientist who actually isolated and identified acemannan in the first place has co-authored a wonderful book with a team of five other bona-fide experts in the field. It is titled "The Science Behind Aloe: The Healing Plant" by Bill H. McAnalley, PhD; Erik H. Aguayo, EMBA; John E. Hall, DDS; Shayne A. McAnalley, MD; David N. McCollum, MD; and Danny Sun, MD.

You can buy a copy by clicking the name, or, you can rely on the summary information regarding the actual bio-availability of acemannan on page two of the BiAloe® Fact Sheet, displayed immediately below:

What does "Dr." really mean?

It helps to put the whole "Doctor." thing in perspective by remembering that Bill Cosby is a "Doctor." (Ed.D.) whose doctoral thesis was titled "The Integration of Visual Media Via Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids Into the Elementary Schools Culminating as a Teacher Aid to Achieve Increased Learning."  Nearly everyone loves Bill Cosby, but I doubt that you would rely on his advice as a resource for Aloe vera education just because he is a "Doctor, even though he played one on TV."

By convention, and, in some areas, by regulation, an unqualified "Dr." indicates that the title holder is a Medical Doctor. Since this is loosely, if ever, enforced, many times a commercial presentation will throw out an unqualified "Dr." with the intention of misleading the reader about the qualifications of the person in reference. As an example, a Chiropractor may want to create the illusion that they are qualified as a Research Scientist or Medical Doctor, so they will replace the appropriate and accurate "D.C." (Doctor of Chiropractic) with a simple "Dr."

To avoid misunderstandings about my intention here, let me state my personal experience that Chiropractors have been the single-most important influence to my health, and the health of my family, of any of the various Doctors we have consulted. Truth be known, it was a Chiropractor who first introduced me to Carrington Labs® (dried Aloe gel)M  , and for that I will be eternally grateful! That said, I recently gave him a copy of "The Science Behind Aloe: The Healing Plant" so that he could become better educated about the amazing healing benefits of Aloe vera, and thereby more fully appreciate the great gift he had given me.

For Aloe vera, acemannan and other glyconutritional education and recommendations, be certain that the advice you are getting is coming from qualified experts in that field.
