Filed under: Aloe Vera
Aloe Vera has long been known for it’s benefits on the digestive system. Many people suffering from conditions such as IBS, Chrones etc have found some benefit to drinking aloe vera.
Conditions like IBS are normally classed as being caused by stress, in other words there is no physical problem with the bowels. A similar feeling we are all familiar with is ‘butterflys in the stomach’ when we are nervous. Again there are no butterflys in your stomach but your head or mind is having an effect on your body. With IBS, a common symptom is severe cramps, this is brought on by stress and is the bowel going into spasm.
How does Aloe Vera help?
Drinking aloe vera will cause your bowel to move food through the body much quicker than normal, this in effect gives the bowel a much smoother transit and actually stops the spasms.
Although food is moved through the bowel much quicker, it is still fully digested. Another effect of drinking aloe vera is that it cleanses the digestive tract (similar to a colonic irrigation but not so severe), making it much easier for the body to digest the food we eat.
