For centuries, men and women from cultures from around the
world have known about the healing properties of aloe vera.
Throughout the Americas aloe has been one of the best
topical treatments for burns, rashes, and various skin
ailments. But aloe is also an extremely healthful natural
food. Many cultures have included aloe as part of their
daily diet. The Chinese have used it as an aphrodisiac, in
Trinidad it is used for jaundice, and in Africa aloe is the
cure for headaches. Native Americans used aloe to
eliminate threadworms, and in Korea, aloe is used to
increase energy and stamina.
Most people agree that aloe looks like a cactus but it is a
member of the Liliaceae, or lily flower family of plants.
Aloe Barbadensis is a specific type of aloe that is
commonly used for its nutritional properties. It contains
more than seventy-five nutrients! These include seven
essential sugars or glyconutrients, twelve vitamins,
eighteen amino acids and twenty minerals. Vitamins A, B,
C, and E, beta-carotene, zinc, calcium, copper, phosphorus,
magnesium, and manganese are all included in aloe.
Many people have used aloe as an internal cleansing or
detoxification agent, as a pain reliever for sore joints
and muscles, and as an antibacterial support. Aloe has
commonly been used to promote better intestinal function,
improving conditions like chronic constipation,
hemorrhoids, colitis, and other gastrointestinal (GI)
conditions. Emerging research shows that aloe can also be
used to support our immune systems.
When a person first begins taking aloe, it has been known
to cause a loose stool, diarrhea or stomach cramps. This
is often called cleansing. While the cleansing process may
be uncomfortable, it typically passes within a week. The
effects of cleansing can be reduced by taking a little less
of the aloe during the cleansing process and building back
up to the recommended daily dose. It is important to
continue taking the aloe because simply stopping in the
middle of the cleansing process means your body still
contains the unwanted toxins that were starting to be
eliminated from your body. By cutting the dosage and
building back up, we rid ourselves of the toxins, clean our
digestive tracts, and can more quickly enter the
maintenance phase where our bodies can more fully digest
healthy foods in our intestines.
While many of us knew about aloe’s topical healing
properties on wounds, burns, and bites, it should not come
as a surprise that aloe is excellent as a health food
supplement (sometimes called a nutritional supplement or
herbal supplement) for healing our digestive tracts
enabling each of us to more fully absorb the nutrients our
bodies need for health and vitality.
