Some warnings for using aloe vera

Aloe vera is not a completely safe plant.. Here are some warnings before using it:
Using aloe vera topical may irritate your skin.

Oral use, eating or drinking, has a laxative effect, which can cause annoying cramps in the intestines and diarrhea, and this may cause an imbalance (electrolytes) in the blood of people who eat aloe vera continuously.

It can also stain the colon, making it difficult to get a good look at the colon during a colonoscopy. So avoid it for a month before having a colonoscopy.

Aloe vera gel, for topical or oral use, should be free of aloin, which can irritate the digestive system.

Do not use topical aloe vera gel on deep wounds or severe burns

People who are allergic to garlic, onions, and tulips are more likely to have an aloe vera allergy.

High doses of aloe vera orally are very dangerous.

Do not take oral aloe vera if you have intestinal problems, heart disease, hemorrhoids, kidney problems, diabetes, or an electrolyte imbalance.

If you take any medications regularly, talk to your doctor before starting to use aloe vera supplements and exams because it can interact with medications and supplements such as diabetes medications, heart medications, laxatives, stimulants, and licorice root extract. Using aloe vera gel by mouth might also prevent medication from being absorbed.

Because there is no evidence of its safety, oral aloe vera supplements should not be used by children and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Aloe vera also contains aloin, which researchers have discovered that may lead to colorectal cancer when chronically used
