The Brutocos moved to the charming town of Ojai over a decade ago, and purchased a stunning, 11-acre hillside ranch. They planted their first crop of a special variety of Aloe vera, barbadensis, which is primarily grown for medicinal purposes. They had the perfect environment to grow Aloe, and soon had a generous crop for personal and commercial use. In those early days they used the Aloe privately as a beverage, personal lubricant, and to treat scrapes, burns and various skin irritations for farm workers, friends and family. They also sold Aloe to a local company for production purposes, and sold fresh Aloe leaf at the local Ojai Farmers Market. They had an abundance of Aloe in their life!

Rinaldo, a scientist at heart, was well aware of the anti-bacterial, anti-microbial and anti-fungal properties of Aloe, but he did not know why it was such a great lubricant, or why it had a healing effect on the vaginal tissue. As he began researching Aloe he learned that as women age, delicate vaginal skin becomes less pliable, and little microscopic cracks develop, leaving the skin vulnerable to infection. During sexual intercourse these tissues are exposed, and because they are typically not maintained at a healthy pH level, they are especially subject to infection. The organic Aloe in Aloe Cadabra® personal lubricant lowers the pH on the surface of the skin and helps to heal the tissue while creating a barrier to opportunistic infections.

The Brutocos are advocates of the power of Aloe based on their personal experience, and they believe their product is the perfect personal lubricant. Testimonials confirm that Aloe Cadabra® organic Aloe works for women experiencing stress or infection due to vaginal dryness from aging. Younger women can use Aloe Cadabra® to enhance health and hygiene as well as for pleasure.

If you or someone you know is riddled with bladder or vaginal yeast infections, try Aloe Cadabra® as an easy-to-use, non-toxic solution. Sadly, the vast majority of products offered in the marketplace that address these infections are chemical or petroleum based. These products are not geared to healing; rather, they mask the symptoms for a period of time, and can aggravate existing infections. Though we don’t know the long-term effects of using chemically based personal lubricants, we do know that the Brutoco’s organic all natural approach with Aloe Cadabra® works.

For many years Rinaldo and Lalla shared their secret use of Aloe with a close circle of friends who were grateful for the discovery. After years of experimenting, Lalla decided it was her moral imperative to share this with the sisterhood, and Aloe Cadabra® was born!

Its fun being in the personal lubricant business, Aloe Cadabra® is a real ice breaker, and talking about it elicits a giggle response. It’s super fun to share and helps people loosen up! Next thing you know people are comparing notes on their experience using it. Try it yourself, share it with your friends, and do let us know how you like it please!

Aloe Cadabra® is the sweetest, cleanest, safest, personal lubricant available, made with only pure, organic Aloe vera, and a small amount of food grade preservative. It’s edible! Aloe Cadabra® is now enriched with Vitamin E, which has anti-aging properties for skin.

It’s easy to order Aloe Cadabra®, available in Natural Aloe, French Lavender or Tahitian Vanilla, for $9.95 a bottle at aloecadabra.com, or call 800 – 961 – 2563.

She recently interviewed Aloe Cadabra’s Carolyn Braddock, whom Betty calls “a straight shooter on talking sex.” Carolyn addressed the statistics which indicate that 80-95% of women experience vaginal dryness, shared information about our 97% organic aloe personal lubricant, and discussed “how to discover the inner sexuality that lives within you.”

After the birth of our second child, I was experiencing dryness and post partem depression. With the extra tasks from having a newborn, time was short, stress was high and the the thought of physical intimacy became less appealing, since it was uncomfortable. As we lost our physical connection, our relationship suffered on every level. We were confused, frustrated and didn’t know that dryness was normal or that there were simple and enjoyable solutions that were designed to work with and support my body’s natural processes. Aloe Cadabra has changed our lives. First it brought the comfort back to sex. As our comfort increased our natural drives for intimacy increased. As our desire for sex increased, our satisfaction with it increased (I was having multiple orgasms for the first time in my life!). As we rediscovered and reconnected with each other, our relationship came back to life and we began to learn and experience new things about each other and with each other. I couldn’t be more thankful for Aloe Cadabra. That it brought back the magic in our relationship, on every level, is amazing. That it’s good for me and I can feel good about using it is even better.

A healthy vagina, which is made up of many layers of cells, stays lubricated with clear fluid, which keeps the vagina healthy, elastic and noticeable when you are aroused. How much lubrication occurs is determined and affected by different factors such as: low estrogen, menopause, stress, fatigue, chemo therapy, medications, allergies, pregnancy, childbirth, drying and chemically based soaps, and of course emotional stress.

Dryness can cause irritation, itching and burning, avoidance of sexual intercourse, and lack of libido, thinning and drying of the vaginal wall. Emotional stress can be a huge factor in dryness. Many women believe and have heard that sexual drive/libido is supposed to go away during menopause. Literature and studies have shown, however, that sex drive is not automatically assumed to be a factor in menopause.

Some 80% of women report symptoms of vaginal dryness during perimenopause and menopause. Other studies indicate that 95% of women report some occasional vaginal dryness.

OK…those are some facts. Now let’s deal with some solutions and create healthy ways to have a relationship between the body, and sexual experiences. What can YOU do?

1. Drink plenty of water (not soda) to ensure that the body is well hydrated. Balance the diet. Add some nutritional supplements if needed.

2. Be careful about using harsh chemicals, soaps, douches and other products containing allergens, dyes and fragrances.

3. Exercise to increase the “chi” or chi energy and breath moving through the body.

4. Stimulate your sexual organs. Lubrication may take a bit longer, but it is still there. Spend time self pleasuring. With a partner, slow down, take your time.

5. Use some personal lubricant that is natural, and will help to restore your own vaginal moisture. Aloe Cadabra is a magical gel that is 95% organic aloe.

6. Affirm you! You may be getting older, but certainly sexual activity can be joyous and exciting. Keep the juices flowing.

But… what about our “emotional body?” We need that emotional connection, that exhilarating feeling of looking and really SEEING into our partner’s eyes, embracing the mind, body, spirit. We need to feel loved, wanted, and language that matches the loving heartfelt spirit. We need to have patience with allowing the natural lubrication to flow like a river of ecstasy. We need to create time, have space, and have an emotionally healthy connection….and then the magic happens. To have this connection means that we may also invite our natural juices to flow on their own. Often, we may add the gift of an all natural personal lubricant to join in this ecstatic journey. Aloe Cadabra with three scents of Natural Aloe, French Lavender, and Tahitian Vanilla, enhances the moment and deepens communication about what we like.

Stress in life…..do we need to name the main stressors we face daily? We suggest a few: financial strain, job stress, health concerns, relationship difficulties, and of course the kids. These stressors stop our bodies from feeling fluid (and fluidity in the mind, body, and spirit creates fluidity in natural lubrication of the physical and sexual body). We may not realize how much these stressors affect us until we try to do too much, and adding the pressure of sexual expression to the list of “I must and I should and I have to.” STOP, in the Name of Love,(as sung by the Supremes.)  Our Super woman or Superman uniform becomes our life as we run to try to catch up (and we never do).  Vaginal dryness is a HUGE factor in how we respond to stress. Choose to change this pattern NOW.

The body responds….”I do not feel safe. You have been pushing me to have sex when I do not want to. Sometimes I do not even feel acknowledged that I am there. You demand a lot of me…you keep asking me to hurry. Don’t you know that I have had natural changes in hormone levels that means that I am producing less lubrication? When I feel pressure from you, I shut down the systems. Yes, I become dry. I hope you will begin listening to me. Help me out here.

“Body, what do you want me to hear?”

The body responds…”I need you to learn more about me, so gather information about hormone replacement therapy OR NOT. When you exercise, how about exercising me, the vagina, the clitoris? Stock up on the magical and all natural personal lubricant, Aloe Cadabra, in all three scents: Natural Aloe, Tahitian Vanilla, and French Lavender. Let’s have some magic getting to know each other gently and playfully. BE PATIENT.” Let’s keep talking…..coffee or tea…some fine wine?

Aloe is a moisturizing plant that has healing properties to promote cellular health and soothe skin as an anti-inflammatory. What’s more, Aloe Cadabra’s formula is pH balanced to the vaginal pH range of 3.8 to 5.0. Unlike chemical lubricants that alter the vagina’s natural pH and destroy the beneficial bacteria that are vital to vaginal health, Aloe Cadabra is balanced with the vagina’s natural environment.
