Aloe Water
If you often struggle with digestive issues, worry about high cholesterol, or deal with a chronic health condition, aloe water can lend a helping hand. Aloe vera is one of the oldest natural remedies. When consumed internally, aloe improves digestion and circulation, and also helps the body eliminate toxins. Aloe can therefore be beneficial for conditions such as arthritis as well as various digestive problems, including gastritis, irritable bowel syndrome, and more. Due to its alkaline nature, it helps balance the body’s overall pH. To benefit from aloe’s healing properties, all you need is fresh aloe intended for internal use and water. Here’s a recipe for healing aloe water!
Servings: 1–2 people
Preparation time: 5 minutes

How to prepare aloe water?
Wash and peel the aloe, then cut a piece of the large leaf to a suitable size (about 5 cm). Peel it, place it in a blender with water, and blend until smooth. Strain through a sieve into a glass and drink immediately (preferably on an empty stomach, so the aloe can work at its best).
NB. If you like, you can also eat a fresh portion of aloe without blending.
