I just bought some, but going to try it tomorrow, does it actually taste good? Does it help anything? (anything health wise?)
:D I heard people say it's UBER good for you, so I thought I would give it a shot ^^

    Good for you if you can stomach it, however it won't help significantly with weight loss. It is a good source of vitamins though :)

    Okay, I'm not doing it specifically for weight loss, just mainly good health ^^

    Taste depends on theI brand. Alo brand is pretty good but there is like 3 flavors. I personally like the one with cranberry in it. It is supposed to be good for your digestive system.

    I'd not fancy trying this, the color alone would put me off. Have you tried Honey & Apple Cider Vinegar, its lovely and aids weight loss so i've been told.

    I was given some by a friend years ago, when I was sick. EWWWW. I couldn't force myself to gag it down. Hopefully they've found ways to improve the taste.

    This might sound gross, but I drink a "shot" glass of it at our local Herbalife shake store. It's actually not bad flavor-wise, but the thing is I am literally running to the bathroom within 2 hours. And, when I have to go, it's urgent. It does help clean me out.

    There are two types of aloe drink, there is one I have gotten from GNC and it tasted terrible! I did it for a while and never saw any changes. There was also a drink I got from Sams which claimed to be an Aloe drink and it had chunks of aloe in it. That had tons of sugar but was super good.

    I'm addicted to the stuff. It's sooo good.

    I blend mine with pineapple orange juice and ice. Can't stand it plain.

    I've heard a lot of people diluting it by putting the Aloe into teas or flavored waters, just to help with the flavor, or the texture. I've had some years ago that was actually very good, but I can't find it anymore.

    I bought Alo Awaken - Aloe & Wheatgrass from Vitamin Shoppe. It has small chunks of aloe in it and tastes very good. It kinda tastes like a melon.

    I heard it was good so I bought some. The store only had this HUGE jug of it. I took one sip and threw it out. It was so gross!! They say you can mix it with stuff but i don't think anything could drown out that taste

    Well, I hope it tastes better than what comes directly out of the plant. I use it on burns, and have a bad habit of biting my nails. It makes me gag, literally. I really can't take it. Upside, cuts back on the nail biting.

    Yep, the Herbalife Aloe drink is great! Mango flavored is my favorite.
