Aloe Vera Juice
Aloe vera is grown in most of the tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world and holds a special place in the traditional Chinese, Middle Eastern and Indian herbal medicine.
Also called as the ‘Lily of the Desert’, aloe vera contains about 200 biologically active components including essential vitamins (A, B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, C, and E), minerals (magnesium, iron, calcium, zinc, choline, selenium, and potassium) and amino acids.
Energy replenishment, skin injuries, burns, acne, acid reflux—name a condition, and you will find its cure in this amazing plant! The gel of aloe vera plant can be made into a clear juice which when had twice a day can save you from the health issues, and make your skin better.
It also contains minerals such as germanium, iron, and copper; all of which have healing properties. What’s more, the continous use of this juice helps trigger detoxification reaction in the body. If you are not fond of the bland taste of this juice, you can mix it with different special ingredients like citrus and herbs to churn out the best from them. Plus, the excessive presence of vitamin C in the citrus fruits enhances the iron absorption in the body.
Aloe vera also has anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antifungal and antibacterial properties. Plus, the presence of polysaccharides and antioxidants in this plant helps provide immune-boosting benefits. Drinking aloe juice regularly is heart friendly too, because of the presence of B-sitosterol that prevents the cholesterol absorption in the system and aids in the lowering of triglyceride levels. Aloe vera also has strong laxative properties that work wonders when you are suffering from constipation.
The Natural Gatorade Drink
Himalayan Pink Salt Sole. What is it? Sole is water fully saturated with unrefined natural salt. When himalayan salt dissolves in water, it results in a concentrated, electrically charged matrix of the 84 trace minerals in the salt. The ionic salt and trace minerals nourish each cell in your body.
Some of the benefits of himalayan salt sole include:
✔Detoxifies the body by balancing systemic pH
✔Improves hydration by providing trace minerals while maintaing mineral levels of the body
✔Reduces muscle cramps by improving minerals and hydration
✔Helps balance blood sugar
✔Supports hormone balance for everyone
✔Helps balance blood pressure because it provides unrefined, mineral-rich salt in an ionic solution
✔Improves sleep by supporting blood sugar and hormone balance
✔Acts as a powerful antihistamine
✔Supports weight loss by balancing hormones and improving energy
✔Supports thyroid and adrenal function
How to make Salt Sole:
Fill a glass jar about 1/4 of the way with Infusions KW Himalayan Pink Salt (fine or coarse grain). Fill the rest of the way with filtered water leaving 1 inch empty space from top. Add a plastic or glass lid (not metal). Gently shake and let sit overnight.You should always have some undissolved salt in the jar, this means the water is fully saturated. Add more salt if needed. In the morning, take 1 teaspoon of sole mixed into 1 glass of warm or room temperature water. Never use metal spoon with your sole! Keep refilling your jar with salt and water when it runs low. The natural Gatorade perfect for electrolytes rebalancing!

Summer Reflections – November Aspirations
?As we welcome the 1st day of November, I remember that summer was amazing! How about yours?Where did you go? What did you see? Most importantly, WHAT DID YOU EAT?! Haha! The Infusions KW family roamed Turkey and it is honestly one of my favorite destinations I have ever been to (and we travel alot). So much to love about Turkey; the weather, the landscape, deep history, kind people, and tantalizing food all made such an impression on me. I learned about their most common spices and flavor palette while imdulging some cooking recipes. Turkey will definitely be my inspiration for Infusions this Fall season.
Just wanted to say a quick hello and highlight what’s coming up in November. If you haven’t done so already, please Sign up for our monthly newsletter.
?November’s newsletter marks our first of the new season after a long hiatus. We were reorganizing from within (including our admin queen welcoming a new bundle of joy), creating new spices, and revamping our website (thanks to our volunteer computer Jedi who also taught me how to use this WordPress thingy right now haha!). Alot of NEW exciting things coming your way this season!
