Make sure you have Aloe Vera, that is the medicinal one. People in Asia have been eating it for hundreds of years to increase their resistance to disease.
As a medicine to cure what ails you it might not be quick so regular medicines are probably best. But taking it daily like you would vitamin C or Echinacea
is supposed to help strengthen your immune system.
You cut a small chunk off the leaf, no more than you will eat at one time, peel off the green skin and squish the gel into your morning juice. I haven't eaten any yet, but have been reading up on it.
