When it comes to natural healing, few plants are as versatile and powerful as Aloe Vera.
Rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and enzymes, Aloe Vera is a centuries-old remedy for skin hydration, hair health, digestion, and immune support.

Today, Faith from Have Faith Health and Wellness shares a step-by-step guide on how to turn a fresh aloe leaf into a soothing, homemade Aloe Vera juice!

🌱 Ingredients:

  • 1 large Aloe Vera leaf (available at most grocery stores for around $2)
  • Filtered water (enough to lightly cover the gel in the blender)
  • (Optional) Cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer for filtering

🧘‍♀️ Instructions:

  1. Prep the Aloe Vera Leaf
    • Cut off the spiked ends and sides of the leaf to remove the sharp edges.
    • Slice the leaf in half lengthwise to expose the thick gel inside.
  2. Score and Scoop the Gel
    • Cut vertical and horizontal lines across the gel to create a grid-like pattern.
    • Scoop out the cubes of gel carefully using a spoon.
  3. Blend with Water
    • Place the aloe cubes into a blender.
    • Add just enough filtered water to barely cover the gel.
    • Blend for 2–3 minutes until smooth and foamy.
  4. Strain the Juice
    • Pour the blended mixture through a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer into a clean bowl or jar.
    • Lightly press or squeeze the mixture to separate the juice from the pulp.

🌟 Aloe Vera Juice Benefits:

  • Rich in Vitamins: Contains vitamins A, C, and E to support skin health and immune function.
  • Hydration Hero: Aloe Vera keeps skin and hair deeply moisturized.
  • Anti-Inflammatory Power: Helps soothe burns, wounds, and minor skin infections.
  • Digestive Support: May aid in soothing the digestive tract and supporting gut health.
  • Hair Care Bonus: Great for moisturizing the scalp and helping prevent dandruff.

🧃 How to Use Aloe Vera Juice:

  • Skin Care: Apply a small amount to your face for natural hydration.
  • Hair Treatment: Massage into the scalp or mix into DIY hair masks.
  • Internal Health (if safe and approved by your healthcare provider): Drink small amounts diluted with water or juices.
