Aloe Vera Juice

Question:

I'm brand new to the list, and SCD. I'm giving it my best shot. Checking through the archives, I've learned that I need to stop doing some of the things I thought were supposed to help - like aloe vera juice. Why isn’t Aloe allowed?

We have discussed aloe many time but since you are new, you should be advised that aloe can be manufactured in many different ways. If the chemical ANTROQUINONE is not removed, my references tell me it will act as a powerful cathartic. I never knew it cure anyone's internal illnesses but it good for exteneral problems.
