    Seems to be a good laxative so if you are having trouble dropping a deuce, it could help...

    It's a great way to soothe the digestive tract and help heal inflammation in the gut. If you buy bottled, look for no extra additives except maybe a little lemon juice. Every now and then I take a piece off of my aloe plant and scrape out the gel and eat that. Pretty gooey but so nourishing.

    George's Aloe Vera is a good one, my boyfriend drinks it to help soothe his intestines from crohn's inflammation. It doens't have a bitter taste and the aloins and anthraqinones have been removed as they can cause digestive discomfort.
