Aloe vera is a miracle plant packed with health benefits.
Sure, its a great summer fling on your sunbaked skin, but drinking aloe juice year-round works wonders for your digestive system, keeps inflammation down, and might even help reduce signs of ageing. It should not be consumed every day, but in small doses. And if you are not getting fresh aloe itself, buy small bottles and drink within a couple of weeks.
Which is why Hello Aloe, created by Chris James is for you, an inner leaf aloe vera gel in a small 50ml bottle, that fits neatly in your luggage. The most versatile version of Aloe to keep with you. You can use it on dry skin, as an after sun lotion, and for moisturising dry hair. Or, add 8 drops into your water bottle or your favourite smoothie or freshly pressed juice, and mix up your own special Aloe cocktail.
The benefits? When you spread aloe all over your skin it feels more moisturized and less inflamed. That’s basically the same thing that happens when you drink aloe juice. Firstly, it detoxifies – the juice has tons of vitamins A, C, and E, which are all potent antioxidants and one of nature’s most effective cleansers. Secondly, its excellent for digestion, so for anyone who suffers with digestion problems like IBS, its healing and soothing properties can help with the painful symptoms. Thirdly, studies suggest that they actually protect skin from UV light damage. Finally, two hormones found in aloe, auxins and gibberellins, help heal wounds and fight inflammation.
