But with purgative (laxative) ingredients removed, it is a powerfull wound healer and soothes inflammation inside the body and out. Good for irritable bowl, colic and the aftermath of intestinal infections of all sorts. Also good for managing chron’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Also calming rheumatoid arthritis. CAUTION: Aloe for internal use cannot be prepared at home from the raw plant.
