Aloe Vera uses are endless, however one of the more well known uses is for wound healing. What many do not know is that Aloe Vera is just as effective for wound healing when taken orally as when applied topically. For example, one scientist found that when mice drank Aloe Vera (100mg/kg/day) for 2 months, compared to those that did not (just had water), their wound diameters were reduced by 62.5%! On the contrary, when mice applied Aloe Vera topically (25% w/v concentration) in a Eucerin cream, they experienced a reduction in wound diameter by only 50.8%. That’s an 11.7% difference!
