Aloe is grown extensively for use in commercial products, but i didnt think you were supposed to use it directly from a plant. They say it has to be stabilized. This could be just what commercial comapnies tell us though and could well be rubbish.
I have some products containing aloe and i have a plant if anyone wants some babies.
Aloe Vera has a lot of medicinal uses too. In contrast with traditional medicines, it is quite economical. Aloe vera can also be used in oral health care and dental hygiene. It can prevent cavities by controlling bacteria. Also, it is a natural and cost-effective way to treat mouth sores.

Plant Pauper: I have given most of my family one, some of them (like Grandma who is getting a little clumsy) several so she can alternate and them recover after pruning. I even have one in my "office space" (a cupboard full of education equipment, Christmas decorations, and so so many fire uniforms).
Non of my neighbours seem inclined with the green finger (but all have small children so I don't blame them for having untidy gardens in the slightest: I can barely cope just looking after a dog much less a child where you can't put them in a cage for time out apparently!) So I don't know what they'd think to me delivering them one as well.

If anyone in the North Notts area wants one, and can collect, give me a pm. Several large ones available, too big to post.

As long as you're not advertising a Dental Practice; it's long way from here for a check-up!
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Does anyone in the Sheffield area want an Aloe Vera?
Everyone should want one Clari. They should be compulsory in every kitchen!

They are so useful though: and easy to care for!
