Aloe has been used for many different things in the past. One of the uses has been as a laxative. When Aloe is cut and prepared a certain way it has certain properties to it that help clean and empty your digestive tract.
The properties in aloe are used inside of your body to help clean it. The aloe is cut in a certain way and then prepared. The outcome is a brown substance that can be eaten or stirred into a drink and then digested.
Aloe has been known to cause diarrhea and stomach pains, but is a valuable source of all the proteins vitamins and minerals found with in it. While in the body aloe can also clean the digestive tract of any extra toxins, and unwanted food items that your stomach refused to digest fully.
Your stomach digests what is good for you and sometimes it even gets what isn't good for you, but there are times when the stomach finds something in foods that it does not digest. The left over undigested food then stays in the stomach and starts to collect around the outer edges of the stomach.
After enough foods have been passed through there is usually a small clump of undigested minerals and such that is sitting in your stomach causing you discomfort. Aloe breaks this clump down and kind of pushes it through the digestive tract.
Aloe is also used to help clean out your digestive tract of other types of waste that can be found there. By using aloe to clean out your digestive tract you are able to also clean out toxins that are not needed, and can keep your self healthier.
So with all the other uses of aloe, it is slightly amazing that it can also be used for this. Whether healing minor burns or detoxifying yourself, be sure to know that aloe can do both.
