So what do we know about this fantastic plant?? Well the potential applications of Aloe Vera include Digestive ulceration, burns, cuts, skin ulcers, bowel irritation, constipation, viral/bacterial and fungal infections.

So when we talk about Digestive issues this amazing plant has been shown to have compounds that help regulate pepsin levels, reduce hydrochloric acid and provide a demulcent effect, which are all helpful in healing digestive issues.

On the other hand Aloe Vera can also be amazing for external issues such as cuts and burns because the polysaccharides present in the plant stimulates the epidermal growth and repair process, also nutrients such as zinc, vitamin c and e are found in Aloe Vera, which contributes to the healing effect.

Another important role of this plant is that it enhances our immune system, a key polysaccharide acemannan acts as a powerful immune system stimulant, and this compound has been shown to raise both white blood cells and interferon production.

So now you know some of the amazing benefits of Aloe Vera but as always make sure you do your own research and if in doubt speak to a professional who can tell you more about it.

Stay healthy, Stay Strong and Enjoy Life :-)
