Aloe Vera is perhaps best known for being an excellent sunburn treatment with superb skin revitalizing properties.  Some of its lesser-known uses include aiding the digestive system and maintaining energy levels.  It is also commonly taken as a vitamin and mineral supplement because it is chock full of great vitamins that you need.  Aloe is typical sold in gel form for use on skin and sunburns and in a drinkable form for use as a dietary supplement.
