Could Drinking Aloe Vera Be Good for You?

Aloe vera is a vivacious plant incredibly beneficial to both the inner and outer members of the body. Many people are conscious of its amazing ability to hasten the healing process of injuries when applied topically to treat scars, bruises, and burns. However, when imbibed, its relieving capabilites persist to improve digestion and detoxify the body. In its gel or juice form, aloe vera acts as a laxative to remedy constipation. Its antioxidant makeup makes it a combatant to protect the body against free radicals. And if that wasn't enough, the plant is a great treatment for diabetes as it lowers blood pressure.

No wonder aloe vera is known as the "plant of immortality."
