Aloe Vera care is, despite the ever widening influence of modern medicine, also on the rise. The health benefits of aloe vera are now more well known than they have been for years, and as such, there are an increasing number of aloe vera care products.
As someone who discovered the health benefits of aloe vera almost by accident, I now have over 10 years experience of this wonderful plant. I therefore looked extensively at why and how this works, where to get the best supplies, what conditions it helps etc. I was very skeptical - why should a plant, taken internally without any highly researched chemicals, help me? I did an awful lot of research, looking for reasons aloe vera does not work. I was almost as if I didn’t believe my own body, or rather, did not want to believe it. But it works, and I was absolutely astonished to find out I was not the only one who knew this "secret". In fact, I was way behind here. My next big challenge was to find one guide which would really help, rather than all the aloe vera suppliers pedling their own product. I found many wonderful resources, but one of my favourite, independent guides can be found here - if you want to find out how Aloe Vera can help you, this is the most important guide you can read all year:
Aloe vera contains an impressive collection of things which are good for us. For example, there are 20 amino acids required by the human body – aloe vera contains 19 of them. Of these, 8 are essential as the body can’t make them, and aloe vera contains 7 of them. There are various types of aloe vera plant, but the one with the most nutrients is the Aloe Barbadensis Miller.
To take care of your internal systems you can drink aloe vera gel, or aloe vera juice, as well as taking aloe vera tablets. The gel from the inner leaf of the aloe vera plant is laden with minerals, anti oxidants and vitamins. Many people make aloe vera gel the number one part of their detox. The health benefits of aloe vera are impressive and extremely wide ranging, and we will look at some of those here.
There is now also a wide range of aloe vera skin care products, including aloe vera crèmes, lotions as well as aloe vera soap. Many people use aloe vera in acne treatment, as a remedy for dry skin and it is superb at helping heal burns, being know as the burn plant. There are also now a number of aloe vera based cosmetics.

When looking for one of these products, there is a golden rule. So many companies add a very small amount of aloe vera and call it an aloe vera product. You need to look for a product whose primary ingredient is aloe vera. Taking care of yourself naturally is becoming more and more important to so many people. It is also important that the aloe is grown naturally, without the use of pesticides etc.
Where did aloe vera come from?
Well, it looks like a cactus but is actually part of the lily family. It grows predominantly in hot dry climates, and has been around for thousands of years. Eqyptian queens, Cleopatra and Nefertiti were all said to have used aloe vera in their beauty regimes, and more recently, Mahatma Gandhi, in a letter to his biographer, said “You ask me what were the secret forces which sustained me during my long fasts. Well, it was my unshakeable faith in God, my simple and frugal lifestyle, and the Aloe whose benefits I discovered upon my arrival in South Africa at the end of the 19th century.”
Many people ask how do I make my own aloe vera gel? To make your own, you will need your own aloe vera plant which will need care all of its own. You can make your own aloe vera juice, but in it’s purest form, the taste is somewhat of a challenge!
It also loses much of the nutrients etc unless it is stablelized as soon as it is removed from the leaf. But this resource will look at these questions and many others.
