Scientific Studies Using Aloe Vera

Hundreds of scientific papers describe the activities of Aloe vera gel taken internally or applied externally to skin and hair. These include:

  • A natural cleanser
  • Penetrates tissue
  • Anesthetizes tissue, relieving pain associated with joints and sore muscles
  • Bactericidal in high concentration with infectious bacteria -- acts as strong antibiotic, destroying bacteria even when diluted
  • Virucidal when in direct contact for long periods
  • Fungicidal
  • Anti-inflammatory
  • Antipruritic -- stops itching
  • Nutritional -- provides vitamins, minerals, sugars
  • Dilates capillaries, increases circulation
  • Breaks down and digests dead tissue, including pus (acne)
  • Enhances normal cell proliferation -- hastens healing
  • Moisturizes tissues
  • Antipyretic -- reduces heat of sores

UNLIKE MOST DRUGS, IT IS EXTREMELY SAFE
