Native Americans used aloe toeliminate threadworms, and in Korea, aloe is used toincrease energy and stamina.
Most people agree that aloe looks like a cactus but it is amember of the Liliaceae, or lily flower family of plants.Aloe Barbadensis is a specific type of aloe that iscommonly used for its nutritional properties.

Aloe hascommonly been used to promote better intestinal function,improving conditions like chronic constipation,hemorrhoids, colitis, and other gastrointestinal (GI)conditions.

The effects of cleansing can be reduced by taking a little lessof the aloe during the cleansing process and building backup to the recommended daily dose. It is important tocontinue taking the aloe because simply stopping in themiddle of the cleansing process means your body stillcontains the unwanted toxins that were starting to beeliminated from your body.
