Some of our members use fiber supplements, such as fiber tablets, if they don't get enough fiber in their diets. Food is always the best choice, since you get the added bonus of other nutrients. But sometimes a little extra fiber is necessary. You might try to add more fiber rich foods to your diet, such as a high fiber cereal.
Aloe vera is great for burns, but doesn't really do anything for you nutritionally. Dr. Weil says it can be useful for some digestive problems, though you need to be careful.

Quote:
Aloe vera juice, sold in all health-food stores, is intended for internal use. The main use is to help heal ulcers and other irritations of the gastrointestinal tract. In high doses, aloe is an irritant laxative, so if you want it to soothe the lining of your GI tract, you must stay below the laxative dose. A reasonable amount to try is one teaspoon after meals. You can use the fresh gel, mashed up in a little fruit juice, or any commercial product that is pure. A lot of bottled aloe juice tastes nasty; shop around for a brand that is palatable.
If you are experiencing a problem like ulcers, you might want to see your doctor before treating yourself, in case there is a bigger problem that needs attention.
Hope that helps
Another friend ventured that it looked and smelled like urine and after that I was never able to have any again.
