Every February 4th, World Cancer Day reminds us of the importance of prevention, awareness, and support for those going through this tough disease. At Atlantia, we know that the battle does not end with the diagnosis. Oncology patients face great challenges throughout their treatment, so having the right products can be essential to improving their well-being.
Why is Aloe Vera beneficial during cancer treatment?
Aloe vera is known for its soothing, moisturizing, and regenerating properties. Its power lies in its ability to help the skin recover from the damage caused by treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
This "natural miracle" is effective not only in hydration but also in reducing inflammation and redness, protecting the skin from side effects such as radiodermatitis. Additionally, drinkable aloe vera helps improve immune function and relieves stomach and intestinal ulcers, providing comprehensive support for the body.

Atlantia's products have been evaluated in various oncological contexts, demonstrating their effectiveness in improving patients' quality of life. The clinical trials include:

Regestimul has undergone a prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial at Hospital Durán i Reynals Ico in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat.
The study demonstrated that the product improves post-surgical scar care, promoting regeneration and enhancing skin elasticity and tone in patients undergoing breast cancer surgery.

Bialoe has been tested in a double-blind study at Hospital 12 de Octubre in Madrid, evaluating its efficacy in preventing and reducing oropharyngeal mucositis in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma treated with radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and brachytherapy.
It has also been evaluated at Hospital Clínic de Barcelona for the prevention of esophagitis secondary to radio-chemotherapy in lung cancer patients, proving equally effective in protecting oral and esophageal mucosa during treatment.
