Hello,

Is "raw Aloe Vera gel", ie from a plant in one's house, healthy or not raw and is that the case for all the varieties of it ("http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aloe_vera")?

Although of course, I realise that it is used for hair etc., my intuition is that it probably is toxic to some extent when consumed raw.

I do know at least one person personally who has it raw, as well as seeing someone on YouTube etc., who advocates it raw.

Thank you.

Philip.

The gel of raw Aloe vera contains vitamins C and E, plus the minerals calcium, magnesium, zinc, selenium, and chromium, as well as antioxidants, fiber, amino acids, enzymes, sterols, and lignins.The raw gel of fresh Aloe vera has been shown to aid in the normalization of blood sugar, helping to lessen the symptoms of diabetes. Recent studies have shown that levels of antioxidant and vitamins B12, C and E remained elevated for 24 hours after taking the fresh gel internally. Consumption of the fresh gel has also been shown to stimulate the body's own antioxidant defenses and increase the bioavailability of antioxidants found in foods and whole-food supplements.
