Aloe Vera juice...

[adz]

Sorry, but Aloe Vera seems to be nothing but quackery. Promoted mosty by the hippie greeny sorts. The type who also tell you that their herbal remedies cure AIDS and Cancer.

I wouldn't say that, as it seems to have helped me, besides it was my doctor who suggested it, and I wouldn't exactly catagorise him as one of the "hippie greeny sorts".

On a side note, Tea Tree is also very good as an antiseptic. Nothing hippy or greeny there...

I used a Tea Tree Oil based ointment to treat pimples when I was a teenager, worked great. In fact, I still use a few natural remedies on a daily basis. I use Ginko for my circulation (the circulation to my feet sucks) and Glucosamine for my joints (I have terrible knee's from playing soccer for 10 years) and I'm certainly not a "hippy".

@all

Its been week now and I'm finally getting used to the stuff, Aloe Vera juice that is, kinda adds a quirky flavour to my orange juice of a morning/evening.
