Wound Care Protocol

  1. Cleanse wound with antimicrobial cleanser (mild is best) then rinse with Normal Saline(sterile is best).
  1. Spray with natural Aloe spray (this is absorbed quickly).
    1. For difficult wounds, may saturate gauze and lay over wound for 5-15 minutes.
    2. For difficult wound may also soak in natural flavor Aloe liquid for 15 minutes. (This liquid may be reused several times on the same patient. Just pour back into bottle and refrigerate.
  1. Pack wound with Aloe gel and place 4x4 gauze over the wound and wrap with Kling.
    1. For Stasis Ulcers Light wound pressure via ace wrap seems to speed healing.
    2. Bed Sores or pressure sores may be treated in a similar fashion. Care must be exercised to keep the patients weight off the pressure sore area.
  1. Patient should be taking a good bioavailable multivitamin and mineral supplement. The patient must be taking in enough calories to prevent catabolism. (at least 1400 Kcals/day)
  1. Patient should also drink 2-4 oz. Of Aloe juice per day orally.


Ideally, dressings should be changed 4 times per day. At a minimum 2 times per day. Wounds treated in this fashion will heal 300% faster than the conventional ways.

The Aloe juice and gel must be high quality, Cold processed Whole leaf, Stabilized. Should have a minimum of 8,000 mg of Mucopolysaccharides per liter (MPS). The typical Aloe gel sold at the pharmacy OTC is single strength, fillet only. It doesn’t work I have tried it. Whole leaf has 5 times more healing power than single strength fillet gel. Aloe juices OTC generally are single strength or 1,00 to 1,400 MPS/liter. Some have as low as 40mg/MPS/liter. Others have high MPS counts because they add maltose as sweeteners that are measured the same as MPS but have no healing power. I personally recommend Simply Natural Aloe products. They have no sweeteners or flavors. I find that if you mix them 50/50 with your favorite nectar they can be quite tasty and they have a 30 day money back guarantee. The price per mg of MPS is the most competitive on the market. The concentrated AloeGel and Aloe 10 (*Now called Simply Aloe) or AloeMin are the best products on the market today.
