What is aloe vera and how may it support skin health?

Aloe vera contains polysaccharides, vitamins, and anti-inflammatory compounds including acemannan. Topical aloe vera is well-established for wound healing and burn treatment. Oral aloe vera gel supplementation has been studied for skin hydration and wrinkle reduction, with some positive findings in clinical trials.

What dosage of oral aloe vera has been studied for skin benefits?

Clinical studies have used 40–120 mg of aloe vera gel powder per day for skin outcomes. A Japanese study found significant improvements in skin elasticity with 40 mcg aloesin (an aloe compound) daily for 8 weeks. Studies on skin hydration and wrinkles used 1,200 mg of aloe gel powder daily for 8 weeks.

What are the potential side effects of oral aloe vera?

Oral aloe vera latex (outer leaf) contains anthraquinones that are potent laxatives and may be carcinogenic with long-term use. Only aloe vera inner gel (decolorized, purified) should be used for supplementation. Aloe may lower blood sugar and interact with diabetes medications. It may also interact with digoxin and diuretics.

About

Aloe vera gel contains acemannan polysaccharides, anthraquinones, and vitamins that stimulate fibroblast proliferation and support wound healing. Topical use has moderate evidence; oral supplementation for skin is less studied. A small RCT found oral aloe sterol supplementation improved skin elasticity in women over 40.

How It Works

Gel from Aloe barbadensis leaves contains acemannan polysaccharides, anthraquinones, and vitamins that stimulate fibroblast proliferation, support wound healing, modulate inflammatory cytokines, and provide mucilaginous moisture retention.
