Health Benefits: Cathartic action of the drug, limited to large intestine, is attributed to anthraquinone glycosides, chiefly aloin. Latter is not absorbed in the upper gut but hydrolysed to the active aglycone at the site of action in the colon and rectum by intestinal bacteria.The anthrones irritate the mucus membrane, leading to an increase in the secretion of mucus, thus stimulating peristalsis. Also they induce an active secretion of water and electrolytes into the lumen of the gut and inhibit the absorption of electrolytes and water by the colon. Burn and Wound Healing: Typically the wound healing requires regeneration of skin and closing of the wound. Aloe Vera is soothing in nature due to its moisture content. Studies show that Aloe Vera when applied to a wound increases the rate of wound closure and enhances the proliferation of cells, whereby the healing is enhanced. Arthritis, Joint and Muscle Pain: Aloe Vera is believed to reduce severe joint and muscle pain associated with arthritis, tendinitis and other injuries. When applied directly to the area of pain, Aloe Vera penetrates the skin to soothe the pain.
