Aloe Vera juice
I did a search of previous posts and didn't find too much regarding the juice. A physician friend of ours gave us a bottle of aloe Vera juice to help with mouth/throat rawness. I am wondering if any one else has used this and how much daily etc?

Why not??
It's great for many things, inside and outside the body. Another thing to try in the arsenal. I'd do it in a heartbeat if I thought there was a chance it would help heal mouth sores.....they are SUCH misery!!

Aloe juice
I got a bottle and my rad dr said it might help with healing, but it is foul tasting and very tart so might feel burning, though not as much as some mouthwashes, and I have seen little sign it helps much.
Still worth a try and pretty easy to find if you are looking for alternatives.

and let you know what our experience is. Recommendation is 1-3 tbsp. a day. We're diluting it with water to practice swallowing and so far it is tolerable. Only down side seems to be you have to watch out for diarrhea, but that has not been a problem as yet.

Hi Barbara
I never tried to drink it yet, but being I grow it I use it raw just by rubbing it into my skin or if bathing I fill the tub with warm water and cut it up. Then as I bath I let the oils in it absorb in my skin. Please let me know how it works for you.
Thanks
Tim
