This is my personal view about Aloe Vera, which I gathered from different sources. Please feel free to correct my views if I am wrong.
Aloe Vera - (Telugu - Kalabanda, Hindi - Gheekumari, Marathi - Khorpad, Tamil - Kathalai) If translations in other languages is a mistake please let me know and correct me.
NO PROCESSING REQUIRED:
Aloe Vera - by now many people know that Aloe Vera is a plant, which has many medicinal values but people may not be knowing that Aloe Vera does not need any processing at all.
HOW TO GROW:
Very easy to grow at your house. Take a leaf and plant it, simple. It can survive in little sunlight, consume little water and what else you want.
HOW TO USE:
As I mentioned above, Aloe does not require any processing. Cut a leaf of Aloe and cut the sides of the leaf (the thorny part) and take the gel part. This gel can be used directly. We can eat this gel, no harm, no side effects, whatsoever. We can even make curry (subji) with Aloe. We can make mixed vegetable curry. We can consume 20 gm to 100 gm of gel daily to get rid of many problems like stomach upset, stomach pain etc. If any one wishes to store Aloe, keep it in early morning sunlight, gel turns into liquid, add some salt (salt is a good preservative), and use it when wanted. You can store this up to one week or so.
SHOCKING NEWS:
People buy Aloe Vera from India at Rs. 4/- or 5/- and they claim to have cleaned, processed, and what not and then they sell the same Aloe Vera at a cost of Rs. 1200/- to 1500/- (I hope I am not wrong). Remember one thing here, Aloe Vera does not need any processing, it can be used as it is. Please remember this and don't get cheated by the products found in the market.
FOR SKIN:
Aloe is very good for skin. We have heard about many products claiming to have Aloe Vera in it but believe me you can make your own medicine, wondering how. Just take Aloe Vera gel and apply it to your skin, simple. God only knows why you need processing for it.
FOR HAIR:
Mix Aloe gel with some curd or multani mitti and apply to your hair. It stops dandruff from the first day itself. It stops your hair fail. It can even help grow hair in bald area. You hair turns nice shiny black. It is a miracle. You will never hate your hair.
FOR PAIN:
Aloe is a good pain killer also. You can apply Aloe gel anywhere. No fears any more. If you have headache, apply to your forehead. If you have pain in your knees, take the gel and give a nice massage to you knees. People having severe pains need to massage regularly for some period of time. AV gel has a deep penetrating formula. For example if you have pain in right ear, you can use it in left ear, umm sounds great!!!
FOR STOMACH UPSET OR PAIN:
Can directly eat some gel, little bit bitter. So, you can add bit salt to taste. Make juice with it and drink it. You can make laddus by mixing with something you like.
FOR EYES:
Sometimes we feel eyes are itching or burning and not so good feeling in eyes, apply gel directly on the eyelids and around your eyes (nothing happens if a bit goes inside your eyes also, so dont worry). Its cool.
