Aloe vera gel for Sunburn and minor kitchen burns

Aloe vera gel is a good remedy for Sunburn and minor kitchen burns

The gel contains active compounds that help the burn heal much more quickly.

How to use it: For the purest aloe, go for the real plant. Break off the end, squeeze and out comes this gel that looks like hair conditioner. Put it on a burn or abrasion and see how  soothing it is !

Watch out: Aloe is generally not for internal use though some swear by its laxative properties, be cautious because  aloe actually turns into a mild soap in the large intestine.

That’s why it’s sometimes used for severe constipation, but those same properties can lead to intestinal cramping, which is why it shouldn’t be repeated too often, Rubman says.
