What is Aloe Vera
Aloe Vera, often called The Miracle Plant, the Natural Healer, the Burn Plant, goes by many names which have survived the 4000 or so years during which this amazing medicinal herb has benefited mankind.
George Ebers in 1862 first discovered its antiquity in an ancient Egyptian Papyrus, dated 3500 BC., which was in fact a collection of herbal remedies. Other researchers have since found that it was used by both the ancient Chinese and Indian Cultures.

Although there are over 20 species of aloe, there are probably only three or four with medicinal purposes. Of these Aloe Vera Barbadensis (Miller), which is also known as Aloe Vera(Limne), is the most potent.
To benefit from Aloe Vera, the gel can be taken internally for its nutritional effect, or it can be combined with other ingredients to produce tropical creams and lotions to nourish and improve the quality of the skin
