Yes, aloe gel is safe when ingested albeit in moderation. While aloe has health benefits, ingesting even small doses can cause dry mouth, nausea, diarrhea and other complications in certain individuals, so be cautious if you’re sensitive. Dietitian Hetal Saraiya says, “Aloe vera has been used as a folk remedy to ease digestion and to alleviate pain from burns when used topically. It has recently gained popularity as an anti-obesity agent. Preliminary studies show weight control benefits, but the mechanisms do not seem as potent as other anti-obesity supplements. However, it is useful in promoting gut health due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Take aloe vera juice with vitamin C and E to increase the bioavailability of both vitamins. As per studies, taking 300 mg aloe vera twice daily offers potential health benefits to the body.”
