Ancient records show that the benefits of Aloe Vera have been known for centuries. Its therapeutic advantages and healing properties have survived more than 5000 years. It was discovered in an Egyptian papyrus dated 1500 BC by George Ebers in 1862. Greek and Roman physicians used it to great effect as a medicinal herb. Researchers have also found both the ancient Chinese and Indian cultures used Aloe Vera. Egyptian queens associated its use with their quest for physical beauty, whilst in the Philippines it is used with milk for kidney infections. Aloes are referred to in the Bible, and legend suggests that Alexander the Great even conquered the island of Socotra in the Indian Ocean, so that he had a supply of aloes available to treat the battle wounds of his soldiers. However, the rapid improvement of documented medical science in the western world, and the movement towards less temperate climates, led to a decline in the popularity and availability of Aloe Vera and it fell to disuse. Nowadays, although medicines and drugs can be very effective in treating ailments, long term use often involves side effects for patients. Consequently more consumers and scientists are turning back to look at more traditional, and often natural therapies which have been neglected for so long. As a result, Aloe Vera is once again attracting attention as it can provide many benefits to our health and lifestyle. Hardly a week goes by without the benefits of Aloe Vera being highlighted in the ‘health’ pages of major national newspapers. |

Often called the ‘Miracle Plant’ or the ‘Natural Healer’, Aloe Vera is a plant of many surprises. It flourishes in warm and dry climates, and many people mistake it for a cactus, but in fact, it is a member of the Lily family. It stays moist where other plants would wilt and die, closing its pores to prevent the loss of moisture. There are over 200 varieties of aloes, but it is the Aloe Barbadensis Miller (Aloe Vera) plant which has been of most use to mankind because of the medicinal properties it displays. |
