We have all heard it before, Aloe is like a wonder potion. Well, in fact it is true!
People drink aloe, people lather up in aloe, people use it in the sun, in the shade, and everyday. Here is the reason why aloe is so powerful, and we should keep doing what we are doing with it!
According to the website Drugs.com, “Topical aloe appears to inhibit infection and promote healing of minor burns and wounds, frostbite, as well as in skin affected by diseases such as psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis, although studies have had conflicting results.”
The plant has been shown in studies to help heal minor wounds eight days faster than standard dressing, not to mention it’s an antibacterial and contains vitamins and minerals that can ease eczema and psoriasis flare-ups. But creative and enterprising beauty experts are using it for a lot more than the occasional cut or rash; they’re using it to get gorgeous, too.
Every time we have used aloe after a sunburn, think about how soothing it has been on that burn? That shows us the great affects of aloe. Carrying a bottle on vacation is a smart thing to do!
Aloe Vera contains over 200 active components including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, polysaccharide, and fatty acids – no wonder it’s used for such a wide range of remedies! The bulk of the aloe vera leaf is filled with a clear gel-like substance, which is approximately 99% water. Humans have used aloe therapeutically for over 5000 years – now that’s a long-standing track record!
Aloe Juice has many benefits if you drink it! It detoxifies your system, it supports your immune system, it lowers your cholesterol and blood sugar, it supports digestion, it helps with hair growth, and boosts your vitamin & mineral intake.
These juices can be found at your local vitamin store and even WalMart!
