Aloe vera can help with a variety of animal health problems. The benefits come from its unique consistency of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, sugars, anthraquinones, lignin, saponins, fatty acids, salicylic acid and amino acids. Aloe vera is most effective on two areas – the immune system and epithelial tissue.
Aloe vera is commonly used to help with the following animal health conditions:
A skin or respiratory reaction to pollens, hair, fur, woollens etc. that shows topically in the form of lumps, rashes, swellings as well as breathing problems. Many animals suffer with allergies, for all sorts of reasons (just like we humans do) and we know how debilitating it make us feel.
