Homemade Aloe Vera Juice Recipe

Only the inner gel of the leaves should be taken, as the outer portion of the leaf contains substances which can cause diarrhoea.
The gel can be scraped out with a sharp knife, from leaves which are fully grown and shortly about to turn yellow.
This gel can be spread onto Irish moss, an herb which contains a natural gelling agent called carrageen, which absorbs it to get an even gel.
A little sodium benzoate may be added as a preservative. 

Preserved aloe gel can be diluted with water when needed or blended into fresh fruit juice, to make a tasty aloe drink!
