A member asked:

Is aloe vera juice good for drinking? it helps me feel less bloated from food.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not sure yet.: Aloe vera has several components. Research has it that the gel component is possibly safe for ingestion, but the latex component is likely unsafe if taken internally. If you use aloe vera, use caution. I can not recommend it until conclusive evidence becomes available.
