AboutLeírás

Aloe vera () is a succulent plant species of the genus Aloe. It is widely distributed, and is considered an invasive species in many regions of the world. An evergreen perennial, it originates on the Arabian Peninsula, but also grows wild in other tropical, semi-tropical, and arid climates around the world. It is cultivated commercially and has been used for centuries as a topical treatment. The species is considered attractive for decorative purposes, and is often used indoors as a potted plant. The leaves of Aloe vera contain significant amounts of the polysaccharide gel acemannan, which may be used for topical purposes. The leaves also contain aloin, which is a toxic compound. Aloe vera products are typically made from the gel. Aloe vera acemannan may be used in skin lotions, cosmetics, ointments and gels for minor burns, skin abrasions, insect bites, and windburn. Oral ingestion of aloe vera extracts may cause acute abdominal pain and cramps, and hepatitis if consumed chronically. It should not be used during pregnancy. Some people have allergic reactions to aloe when used on skin.

Az orvosi aloé (Aloe vera) az egyszikűek (Liliopsida) osztályának spárgavirágúak (Asparagales) rendjébe, ezen belül a fűfafélék (Asphodelaceae) családjába tartozó faj. Kivonatait széleskörűen használják a kozmetikai iparban és az alternatív gyógyászatban, megnyugtató, fiatalító, sőt "sejtregeneráló és immunerősítő" hatást tulajdonítva neki a marketing-anyagokban.
