Strato's answer:

Does aloe vera gel cure colitis? - Disclosure

Hi Prasad, thanks for the question because this is a good opportunity for me to clarify certain issues.

Me personally, I have not studied medicine and all of my answers to your questions are based on the official literature, the experience of our fellow humans and my personal experience and reasearch.

My recommendation on products are based mostly on my personal experience after many years of using stabilized aloe barbadensis Miller products. I will receive compensation from Forever Living Products, when someone purchase products from Retail Aloe Store. However, such compensation does not influence the information in this site in no way.

• I will never support false claims on Forever's products, in order to sell one or two products more.
• I am always trying to give my best in what ever I do. I believe that the best reward for a work, is knowing that I have done the best I could do for this work.

But as I said, I'm not a doctor and my advice is that you have always firstly to consult your family physician if you are experiencing a medical problem. Regarding your question:

Will aloe vera gel help to cure my colitis? - Studies

In recent years there have been many studies about aloe vera and its benefits for the human health and also for animal's health. I'll refer only two related to colitis.

• Dr Lee Cowden (Dallas, Texas) stated that daily consumption of aloe vera gel helps greatly on relieving from annoying symptoms and fighting many diseases such as ulcerative colitis, problems in the esophagus, peptic ulcer, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, mouth lesions and sore throat.
• Dr. B. Frielander (San Diego, California) nutritionist, noted that patients with chronic colon problems including constipation, hemorrhoids, ulcerative colitis and Crohn 's disease, benefited from the daily consumption of aloe juice as part of a treatment program. He further noted that the color of their face looked better and their overall health had improved!

Conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, ulcers and colitis are able to wound the colon and make it excitable, leading to bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramps and fever. Aloe vera gel when drunk every day, is particularly effective because of its anti-inflammatory action.

Changing our bad habits to healthful habits - Drinking aloe vera gel every day

Colitis is most commonly caused by poor diet, lack of fibre, stress or an excess use of coffee and/or alcohol. Thus, abandoning bad habits or rather changing our bad habits to other healthful habits is the best way to help ourselves against colitis.

We can stop smoking and/or drinking coffee e.g. and instead, start reinforcing our body with the proper nutrition, drinking aloe vera gel drink every day and staying active. Aloe will support us the best way and will be very helpful in our body's detoxification.

One of the best aloe vera gel drink is Forever's Aloe Vera Gel. Imagine slicing open an aloe leaf and consuming the gel directly from the plant. The miraculous aloe leaf contains 200 compounds, including 20 minerals, 18 amino acids and 12 vitamins.
