August 6, 2010, Newsletter Issue #42: Apply Aloe Vera

Tip of the Week


Gel made from the thick leaves of the aloe vera plant has been used for centuries to treat cuts, burns and dry skin conditions such as eczema. Some studies suggest that it has mild antiseptic and anti inflammatory properties. Just remember, a bottle of fresh gel will need to stay cold, so you'll need to have access to a fridge or cooler while you're traveling. Otherwise, you can opt for aloe vera based creams, but they are generally diluted with other products.
