Can Aloe Vera cure, help, treat or prevent Boils?

The following information is for humans with Boils

Introduction to Boils

Boils are the abnormal formations of the tissue in the form of a bag, filled with a runny, semi-runny or pasty content.

They can be identified by a swelling with pain but the contents may not be visible if the boil is under the skin.

Using Aloe Vera for Boils

Important Note:
This text refers to Aloe Vera as defined on our page Good Quality Aloe Vera. We also strongly recommend you read the FAQ: How Much Aloe Vera Should I Drink?

How long will it take for Aloe Vera to work with Boils?

As the toxins are pushed out expect the boild to look worse before it looks better, especially if the boil was under the skin.
Much depends on the sufferers diet, other ailments suffered and the quality of the products used. Cheap Aloe will do little and may even add in unknown chemicals that the manufacturers have used as cheap fillers to make the bottle look bigger.
