I am glad to see the results are well seen with aloe vera. i have seen some products at my local heath store with aloe vera and was just wondering if this was as effective as using the gel from the plant.

As you rightly say, drinking aloe vera can be great for ulcerative colitis because of it's anti-inflammatory properties. But as aloe is an immunomodulator, it is very beneficial with other disorders of the immune system too.

Ulcerative Colitis is a universal disease. And, a man, I can attest to the painful fact that it hits us men as much as women. I'm glad to see that this blog helps people to understand the benefits of aloe vera juice for those who suffer from Ulcerative Colitis. (Also great for IBS) - David
