Medical Uses of Aloe Vera
The aloe vera plant has long, thick triangular leaves and is relatively easy to grow. The thick outer layer consists of the rind, and the middle layer consists of a bitter, yellow sap. At the center is a gel that can be applied directly to the skin.
In traditional and folk medicines, aloe vera has been used internally and externally to treat a wide range of unrelated medical conditions. Today, there are aloe vera supplements, juices, and skin or hair care products that are thought to have therapeutic effects.
Here is what some of the current research says about the possible health benefits of aloe vera:
Wound Healing
Aloe vera gel applied to the skin is thought to promote wound healing, including injuries like:
- Sunburn
- Thermal burns
- Frostbite
- Surgical wounds
- Skin ulcers
- Mouth ulcers
- Bedsores
A 2019 review of studies concluded that aloe vera was more effective than petroleum jelly, framycetin antibiotic cream, and silver sulfadiazine 1% ointment in healing a wide variety of wounds, including burns, surgical wounds, and pressure sores. It also appeared to reduce pain while healing, in part by keeping scar tissues well-hydrated and flexible.
Laboratory studies suggest that aloe vera promotes healing by accelerating new skin cell growth. The gel also has potent anti-inflammatory properties that may reduce swelling and redness.
Even so, there is not enough evidence to recommend aloe vera as an effective treatment for psoriasis or eczema. There is also no evidence that aloe vera can speed the healing of cold sores or genital herpes caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV).
Skin Health and Aging
While some people promote aloe vera as anti-aging, there is little evidence that aloe vera in any form can reverse the signs of aging on a cellular level. However, it does have definite benefits for the overall health of aging skin.
Health Benefits of Aloe Vera
Aloe vera is a cactus-like plant used for centuries as medicine to treat sunburn, rashes, burns, wounds, and other skin conditions. In addition to external uses, aloe vera is thought by some to treat constipation, heartburn, and hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) when taken internally.
Aloe vera is widely available as a distilled juice, dietary supplement, and ingredient in face creams, body lotions, and skin ointments. Although the stems of the aloe plant and the gooey gel inside can be eaten raw or cooked, they may be unsafe if consumed in excess.
This article takes a look at the health benefits of aloe vera as well as possible side effects, risks, and interactions of this popular herbal remedy.

Everything About Aloe Vera
Aloe vera is a medicinal plant that grows in hot climates such as California, New Mexico, and the Caribbean. It contains more than 75 active ingredients, including enzymes, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals, some of which could make it useful for treating diseases.
Some people use aloe vera gel as a home remedy to treat burns and other skin conditions and heal wounds. Aloe juice is also promoted as a natural remedy for diabetes, heartburn, and inflammatory bowel syndrome (IBS). There is some research suggesting that it works for these and other conditions, but more research and higher-quality studies are needed to confirm these benefits.
