Shrouded, you can find aloe vera juice in any health food store. I became aware of its existant waching the news. A guy was hopeless ill, and the drs. could not find out the cause. So one lady told him to eat just aloe vera. He ate it, and was cured. I don't recommend to eat it whole, it can send you straight to the bathroom. The leaf contains aloin and aloemoin compounds, a natural and effective laxative. The juice in the stores are good, but if you would like something more natural and cold pressed, you could buy the plant, take the gel out of the leaf and drink it. Aloe vera contains fatty acids, highly effective for many inflammatory conditions of the digestive system including the stomach, small intestine, colon, liver, kidney and pancreas. It contains hundreds of nutrients: 5 enzymes, vitamins (B1, B2, niacin, B6, folic acid, vitamin C, E, A and beta carotene), minerals (like calcium, potassium, manganese, zinc, chromium) 16 different amino acids. It is a natural cleanser, antiputric, digests dead tissues, hastens healing, it is moisturizer, naturally decreased unfriendly bacterias, antifungi and more...

Just let me warn you, it takes time to get used to its taste :dizzy: Take half cup 3 times daily. I heard some said it can be dangerous.. It reduces the blood presure. Well, beside s that, I did some research, and found nothing else, just the regular warning for pregan women and nursing moms.
