Description
Aloe latex is a yellow fluid derived from the inner layer of the leaves of aloe vera plants. Aloe latex is purported to have healing properties, but these claims have not been proven substantial enough to allow it to be sold as anything more than a dietary supplement in many countries. Medical studies have shown that aloe latex can be detrimental to human’s health.
Overall Negative Effects
Aloe latex was sold as a laxative because it contains a cathartic laxative called anthraquinone,but this was later banned by the FDA. Aloe taken orally has been known to cause hepatitis and thyroid dysfunction when ingested. It is best to inform a healthcare professional if you plan on taking aloe latex, as it has been known to reduce glucose levels, which can be dangerous to diabetics, and because it can reduce the effectiveness of other possible drugs in your system.
