Aloe Vera – The Wonder Plant

I am a short cactus-like shrub.
I am commonly used in shampoos and skincare creams.
You can cut off the tip of my leaf and squeeze my gel onto your sunburn.
I help in healing minor wounds eight days faster than a standard dressing.
I have antibacterial, vitamin, and mineral powers to relieve even a mosquito bite.
My gel is better than toothpaste at controlling cavity-causing oral bacteria.
I can help cure constipation and indigestion.
People drink my gel to reduce their weight.
