Aloe Vera Juice
Aloe vera juice helps reduce the frequency and appearance of acne. It also helps reduce skin conditions like psoriasis and dermatitis. Aloe vera is a rich source of antioxidants and vitamins that helps in protecting your skin.
Ingredients
- 2 or 3 tbsp Aloe-Vera edible gel (as suggested by your ayurvedic expert or nutritionist)
- 1 cup Fruit juice (orange/ kiwi/ berry/ apple/ pomegranate/ or mixed fruit)
- To taste Sweetener (sugar/ honey or jaggery)
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice (optional)
Instructions
- If you pluck a fresh aloe vera leaf from a plant, then keep it aside for 1 hour. There is a yellow liquid that comes from the leaf which is toxic.
- Wash aloe vera leaf under running water, pat dry with a clean cloth.
- Cut both the sides with a scissor and then fillet the leave to 2 in the center. You will have 2 pieces.
- Scrape off the white gel to a bowl ensuring there is no yellow or greenish rind in the gel.
- Store the gel in the dry jar and refrigerate for further use.
- Add 2 or 3 tbsp of gel as (suggested by your ayurvedic expert or nutritionist) and blend with any other fruit juice until smooth.
- Consume immediately as it oxidises.
Notes
Note: This yellow or greenish gel is extremely toxic and is unfit for consumption.
Note: Here I used kiwi fruit juice.
