Aloe Vera is a very healing plant from the succulent family. It has healing properties for wounds, specifically burns as well as inhibiting infection.

It is not suggested that aloe is ingested, simply used topically.

You can grow your own aloe, so if you get a cooking burn or sunburn, you simply have to apply the inside of the plant to the burn. These plant require bright light and don’t require too much water. They will start to rot if they are over watered; as long as water once the soil is dry and make sure it’s not sitting in water, it’ll do just fine.
