Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) comprises Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.

Both Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are characterized by an abberant response by the immune system. The immune system is comprised of different kinds of cells and proteins, which ordinarily protect the body from infection. With Crohn's disease, the immune system functions defectively.

AMP Aloe does just this: it suppresses the inflammatory response, enabling healing of the intestinal tissues and thus inducing a remission of the symptoms of Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.

Crohn's Disease is characterized most typically by inflammation of the end of the small intestine, called the ileum, and/or the beginning of the large intestine, the colon. It may inflame other parts of the GI tract, as well as all of the layers of the affected intestine.

Crohn's Disease Symptoms differ based on the area in which the intestine is inflamed:



  • Ileocolitis: This is the most common, and affects the ileum and colon. Symptoms: cramping and/or pain, diarrhea and possible weight loss.


  • Ileitis: Affects the ileum. Symptoms: cramping and/or pain, diarrhea and possible weight loss.


  • Gastroduodenal Crohn's Disease: Affects the duodenum, which is the very beginning of the small intestine, and the stomach. Symptoms: nausea, loss of appetite and resultant weight loss.


  • Jejunoileitis: Here you'll have inflammation in the jejunum, which is the upper half of the small intestine. Symptoms: mild to intense abdominal pain/cramping and diarrhea after eating.


  • Crohn's Colitis (granulomatous) : Affects only the colon. Symptoms: diarrhea, rectal bleeding, and disease around the anus, which may include fistulas, ulcers and/or abscesses. abscess, fistulas, ulcers). Skin lesions and joint pains are more common in this form of Crohn's than in others.

Crohn's disease is named after Dr. Burrill B. Crohn. In 1932, Dr. Crohn and two of his colleagues, Dr. Gordon D. Oppenheimer and Dr. Leon Ginzburg, published a pandemic article which depicted the major factors of what we now call Crohn's Disease.

Ulcerative Colitis is implicated by inflammation of the mucosa (mucus membrane) lining of the colon and/or rectum. Its symptoms typically go through alternate periods of flare-ups and remission that can continue through a lifetime.

These periods of flare-ups can be minimized, if not obliterated, with the Aloe Mucilaginous Polysaccharde (AMP) molecule of the Aloe Plant. AMP Aloe can extend if not make permanent your periods of remission, and has done so for hundreds of UC sufferers.

Flare-up symptoms include inflammation of the Colon and/or Rectum, Diarrhea and Rectal Bleeding; there may or may not be painful cramping. You do not usually see constipation with Ulcerative Colitis.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is often referred to as Spastic Colon, and is represented by the malfunction of the spontaneous movement and sensation in the bowel.

The nerves are more sensitive to dietary change and stress, as well as physical activities, which may stimulate the bowel.

Most people with IBS experience abdominal cramping and pain as well as changes to bowel system functioning; alternating between constipation and diarrhea.

With IBS, there is no inflammation seen in the colon lining; nor is there any rectal bleeding; signs seen with Ulcerative Colitis.

AMP Aloe regulates the bowel motility (ability to move spontaneously and independently), and reduces the sensitivity of the nerves in the bowel to external stimuli. What this gives you is a much more consistent and normal bowel movement and functioning.
