Medicinal Uses of Aloe Vera

Externally,  Aloe gel  is used to relieve various skin conditions such as burns, cuts, frostbites, minor wounds, or eczema. The sap is used to ease pain and reduce inflammation.

Internally, Aloe vera can be used as a laxative. As there is evidence of significant adverse side effects such as an increased cancer risk, an increased risk of developing hepatitis, and vomiting, it is strongly advised to consult your doctor if you are considering to take Aloe internally.
