Did You Know...
You can drink Aloe Vera? You've probably used it when you've cut or burned your skin and had fantastic results. You should consider drinking Aloe Vera too. Here's why...
Aloe Vera (barbadensis miller) contains over 20 minerals, all of which are essential to the human body. The human body requires 22 amino acids for good health -- eight of which are called "essential" because the body cannot fabricate them. Aloe Vera contains all of these eight essential amino acids, and 11 of the 14 "secondary" amino acids. Aloe Vera has Vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, B12, C and E. Vitamins cannot be manufactured within the body, and some cannot be stored by the body, so it is necessary for the diet to sustain a continuous supply.
When drinking FLP Aloe Vera, it is recommended that - to get a steady supply of these minerals, amino acids and vitamins - one should drink between two to four ounces of Aloe Vera Gel twice daily.
Aloe vera as a drink?! o.O
Good for you or what not, that sounds just gross!
maybe the good stuff that is needed could be extracted.
should be probable, i'm just positive that it's a sort of... sperm-like-fluid. :S
yeah... gloopy things... not good to drink.
think cold custard...
I don't believe I could bring myself to actually drink that.
Aloe as it comes from the plant would be a bad idea. I seem to remember it not agreeing with the stomach, but I am not remembering exactly why.
i'll take your word for it very informative but i'll stick to using it for burns and cuts
i may be good for u but there is no way that will go in my mouth
You can buy Aloe Vera drink in most health food stores, or in the organic section of supermarkets. The drink itself is tasteless but you can add lemon juice to it to make it taste like lemonade. I wouldn't recommend drinking anything that's in "gel" form. It probably wouldn't stay down, lol.
But why is this not in the sandbox?
Ummmm....like anything else in life, what does it taste like, chicken??
So... you can actually buy the drink. Thts better than the thought of spoonfeeding myself a gel and trying not to vom.
They make aloe vera everything. Snacks, drink, I think there's even a soda form of it. lol Straight it doesn't taste like much of anything really.. you can add it to juice or such to make it taste better.
SO, have you experienced good effects from it? Can you feel a difference?
ok, jus licked it, its gross, i think id rather just eat my 5 fruit or veg a day ta!
LOL... just got the funniest image of you licking aloe vera!
~shudders~ drinking licking tasting aloe vera is on about 5 different levels of wrongness for me
interresting
but when i listen other people who give a think on it before
i dont want to test it
Ok I guess nobody believes me then. lol the drink tastes nothing like licking an aloe plant.
You picked up a aloe plant, cut off a leaf and then placed your tounge to it... wow do you always do impuleive things like that???
lol your supoed to make a tea out of the gel you drink it twice a day because like all cooked vegataion it looses nutrentss
I eat all my vegies raw for this reason so i tryed some well keeps you regulated makes a great easy going less then 3 hour laxitive *oooops i feel the urge to run to the toilet
We have aloe vera yougurt here. It's very good. I like it.
Ok, here is the ultimate question... does it come in beer form?
I drink it, its gross, but I do it cuz its good 4 me. Liquid form of course. Make sure you either eat with it or b4 it though, otherwise, it will make you puke. I drink it really fast.
WhitetrashDruid- i believe you! But I will believe you even more when I actually try it myself.
