Aloe
vera is one of the chief plants used in folk-medicine. Its healing
benefits were recognized in the ancient Indian, Chinese, Greek and Roman
civilizations. The Egyptians refer to it as "the plant of immortality"
and it is usually among the funeral gifts buried with the pharaohs. In
the traditional setting, aloe vera is used for healing wounds, relieving
itching as well as swelling and it is known for its antibacterial as
well as anti-inflammatory properties.
Aloe vera is a member of the
lily family and is one to two feet tall. Its leaves are succulent, with
a broad base, pointed tips and spines along the edges. Its leaves
contain the healing gel which is 96% water, while the remaining 4%
contains Vitamins A, B, C, and E; calcium; amino acids for protein
building; and enzymes used in the digestive system. It has over 240
species but unfortunately, only four of them have medicinal values. The
most potent of all the species is the aloe barbadensis and it is
important to note that aloe vera, which is native to North Africa as
well as Spain, is also grown in the hot regions of Asia, Europe and
America.
The healing potential of aloe vera stems from its ability
to prevent injury to the epithelial tissues and help in the healing of
injured tissues. An epithelium is a layer of cells covering the body and
our largest epithelium is the skin. Aloe is very beneficial in soothing
many skin ailments like mild cuts, insect stings, bruises, eczema and
so on. Research has also shown that it has antifungal as well as
antibacterial properties and boosts blood flow to wounded areas. It also
helps in the production of fibroblast (the skin cell responsible for
wound healing) and collagen (the protein that controls the aging process
of the skin as well as wrinkling).
Moreover, when aloe vera juice
is taken internally, it aids digestion, helps control blood sugar,
boosts energy production, promotes cardiovascular health and improves
the immune system. It helps in clearing toxins from the digestive system
and improves the functioning of the liver, kidneys as well as gall
bladder. Its anti-inflammatory fatty acids alkalize the digestive juices
and guide against acidity which causes indigestion. These fatty acids
are not only beneficial to the stomach but also to the small intestine
and colon. However, it is not advisable for pregnant women and children
under five years of age to take aloe vera internally.
