Aloe is rich in natural nutrients and fiber. Aloe helps decrease inflammation of the gut including IBS and colitis. Aloe helps with digestion by increasing healthy gut bacteria in the intestines. Additionally, it helps balance the immune system including allergies, rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory immune disorders. Drinking aloe has been shown to help improve blood circulation and decrease total fat levels in patients with high cholesterol, which helps reduce fatty deposits and blood clots in the arteries and heart. Of course, aloe also has amazing benefits for the skin 😊 however, do be mindful of drinking too much aloe juice because it contains a substance called anthraquinone, which has a laxative effect. Aloe has medicinal properties. And like other medicines, herbal supplements and over the counter medications - aloe may inhibit or increase the effects of some prescription drugs, most notably those for diabetes and heart conditions. So, consult your doctor if you are on any prescription medication and wish to try drinking aloe juice. As always, be well. Namaste 🙏 (aloe juice in photo prepared by Kendrick of Numa Nursery) 💫✨
