Does aloe vera improve skin, hair and even digestion? Aloe contains bioactive compounds such as polysaccharides, amino acids, aloin, anthraquinone heterosides, resins and phytosterols that give it the effects of its topical use, such as skin and hair hydration. According to the Ministry of Health (2013), aloe vera, the popular name by which Aloe vera is known, is the active principle of some topical medicines recognized by the National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa) for healing use, since the substance active, by penetrating the injured tissue, it acts to relieve pain and reduce inflammation, being indicated for the treatment of 1st and 2nd degree burns and improves in psoriasis. According to the status of the herbal medicine registry in Brazil in 2008, Aloe vera is recognized only for topical use as a healing agent, which makes the safe use of this plant orally and medicinally unfeasible. In 2001, Anvisa (2011), through the Technical Report number 47, did not attest to the safety of using Aloe vera-based food products, with the justification that the scientific documents sent to the organization so far were not sufficient. to approve the registration of Aloe vera as a food. However, in June 2012, the Federal Regional Court published an article in the Federal Official Gazette approving the import and marketing of Aloe vera-based juices, stating that the aforementioned products do not pose any type of health risk. For now, there is no recommendation or safety for the medical indication of oral Aloe vera. Can aloe vera be ingested? Is it ok to make aloe juice? There is still no scientific support for the recommendation of this route of consumption. Some research has shown some undesirable effects of using this vegetable in high doses and depending on the form of administration, hence the importance of identifying safe and acceptable doses regarding the use of Aloe vera gel by oral ingestion. Does aloe vera juice help digestion? There are other safer options. Contraindications of aloe vera? Orally, per hour, is not indicated.
