I have to call foul about not consuming aloe vera, In Central and South America the aloe plant is used to make medicinal drinks for all types of aliments. They simple use a serrated edge knife to scrape the inner core out of the plant and ten mix it into a prepared liquid with other plants the liquids are hot or cold. there are even commercial drinks in these markets that have pieces of raw aloe in them. One of them that I remember is called "Salviloe" which is taken from the name "sabila" which is Spanish for aloe vera just for and example. There are numerous brands. All of them sell well and are highly used for anything like simple thirst to feeling bad in the stomach from excessive food or drink. Plus I am living testament that drinking aloe is safe I have done this for more than 10 years. However I do understand that the LEGAL department is probably envolved in the editing of these articles and requires that there is a statement that will keep any one from claiming you told me I could drink it and looked what happened. So have fun make well informed decisions and be safe.
