Everything you need to know before using an aloe plant

La pulp of Aloe Vera Barbadensis it is easily extracted and has numerous benefits for our health. Getting a plant of this variety is very simple and allows us to use it for many purposes. However, you have to know some things before using them for our well-being.

  • All the aloe vera leaves have no healing properties until the plant is not at least 3 years old. Therefore, if we extract we use the pulp of a young plant we will not obtain any results. How do we make sure our aloe is old enough? The aloe leaves they usually have white spots when they are less than 2 years old. These disappear over time, so they can show us that our plant is ready to heal us. Actually, the best option when we buy our aloe vera is to wait at least 2 years to start extracting its pulp. In this way, we will ensure 100% that its healing properties will be effective.
  • When we cut the leaves they start to rust. Therefore, 24 hours after they have been separated from the plant, their pulp will cease to have an effect. Thus, the best way to ensure that our home remedies with aloe vera they will be effective is applying them as quickly as possible after extracting the pulp.
  • All the aloe vera plants they are perennial, but it is more effective to cut them in spring and autumn.
  • The inside of aloe vera leaves is viscous and when we apply it to the skin, it remains sticky. Also, if we use pure natural aloe pulp, it is possible that lumps remain even if we have crushed it very well.
  • Sometimes the plant can be infected by an insect that weakens it. If our care is adequate but we notice that the leaves are drying or wilting, we will have to treat the plant and we should not use its pulp.
  • If we have recently used pesticide to treat a pest, we should not remove the interior of the aloe leaf as they may contain chemical residues that can seriously harm our health.
