Kosher is another word for "Kashrut" which is the body of Jewish law dealing with the kind of food we can and cannot eat and the way these food needs to be prepared and eaten. Kashrut comes from the Hebrew word Kaf-Shin-Reish, implying fit, proper or correct. A spiritual leader of a Jewish congregation known as Rabbi is qualified to expound and apply Jewish law of Kosher; however there is a popular misconception that rabbis bless the food to make it kosher. There are blessings that vigilant Jews perform over food before eating it, but these blessings are non-relative with making the food kosher. In our modern world of processed foods, it is difficult to know what ingredients are in your food and how they were processed, so it is necessary to have a rabbi examine the food and its processing and assure that the food is kosher. This can be done by the diligent inspection followed by certification of foods and processes. Kosher food preparation requires the following steps that ensures that the food is prepared in accordance to Jewish law of Kosher. Kosher Certification for food and process is the best way to guarantee that the Jewish laws are followed during the preparation of food. The inspection for kosher certification is carried out with the following steps: 1. The ingredients and provider of the ingredient used for the preparation of food must be "kosher certified" and also stored and maintained as per the kosher standards. It should not be substituted by any non-kosher product or ingredient. 2. The Certificates provided by the "Kosher Certification" company for the products and process should be "current". 3. The introductions of non-kosher food products can contaminate the equipment used for the processing of kosher certified food. 4. The designation and symbols applied to the kosher certified products must be accurate.
5. No changes in the facility should be made after the certification program conducted by Kosher Certification Company has commenced. At Badatz, Our Rabbi ensures that all the applicable Jewish laws and standards are met during food processing to the highest standards.

Aloe Vera And Its Incredible CompoundsBy Kellie HastingsThe highly effective properties of Aloe Vera have given this plant an almost perfect reputation. Considered as the world's most medicinal magical wonder plant, Aloe Vera can be regarded as the all in one supreme natural product ranked in a classification of its own. And the varying composition within each plant cannot compare to the composition within any man-made juices, antiseptics or healing remedies inclusive with skin care. The plant itself produces antiseptic agents such salicylic acid, urea nitrogen acid, lupeol, cinnamonic acid, sulphur and phenols, all which are recognized as such because they control or kill fungus, bacteria, mold and viruses.
These highly effective agents are the reason why the Aloe Vera plant has extreme potential to eradicate many infections inside the body and out. The Aloe Vera juice itself contains salicylic and Lupeol acids which confirms its effectiveness for relieving pain. Ironically though, most resort to the modern man-made synthetic counter remedies and pay a small fortune for them unaware and uninformed in regards to what the Aloe Vera plant actually is and its self possessed components. And it's not surprising that the information that is widely available now has only surfaced since the Internet. And advertisements in any form prior to the internet were commonly focused on these counter remedies for alleviating pain, burns, cuts, arthritis, ulcers, digestion etc, the list goes on. How the Body can Benefit from Aloe Vera. Well with 200 nutrients in the gel fillet (parenchyma) how can one not benefit from what this earthly wonder has to offer. Containing B-sitosterol (plant sterols), cholesterol, and campersterol, these anti-inflammatory fatty acids are a tremendous aid for the treatment of scrapes; abrasions; burns; rheumatoid arthritis; acid indigestion; allergic reactions; rheumatic fever; cuts and ulcers. Even cholesterol levels can be lowered from the potency of B-sitosterol which is also known as an anti-cholestromatic. Provoking conditions of internal organs inclusive with the pancreas, liver, small intestine, colon and the stomach can also be treated from the fatty acids of the Aloe Vera plant. Aloe juice, an additional remedy aids in the control of immune system diseases and aliments because Aloe itself also contains immune stimulators called polypeptids. And as it is stated there is a total of 23 polypeptids in Aloe Vera gel. Thus patients with HIV and AIDS can also benefit from these immune stimulators. And to add to the advantages of polypeptids, anti-tumour agents like Aloe lectins and Aloe emodins have the ability to control cancer. It's amazing how one plant can produce such a vast array of functional elements and although the 75 known ingredients in the Aloe Vera plant have little relativity to each other, it's the synergistic connection between them that has given this plant its renowned title "Medicine Plant". Whole Leaf or Inner Gel
It's become a common process for companies in their production of Aloe Vera products to use the entire leaf inclusive with the outer green rind. And many promote the use of it claiming the additional benefits from their "whole leaf" Aloe Vera products. However, the filtration methods used to filter out impurities once the whole leaf is liquidized are believed to have some effect on the more valuable ingredients. Bacteria and cellulose are present in the green rind either on its surface or just beneath it. And during processing these two components are most likely to destroy the poly-saccharides which provide Aloe its famous properties. The inner leaf fillet or gel constitutes for the majority of beneficial ingredients in the plant itself. And the world's largest growers who process Forever Living Aloe Products actually hand fillet the leaf using only the inner gel. There is a variety of Aloe plant species however, research has proven the most effective to be Aloe Barbadensis Miller and because Aloe Vera is a natural plant product each plants composition will vary slightly depending on its age and size. And the ideal maturity level in a plant is two to three years. Properties of Aloe Barbadensis (leaf and gel)Amino Acids: 7 of the 8 essential amino acids which the body doesn't produce.
