Yes, you can eat it raw. It's good for your insides like your colon. The last answerer must have thought it was gross or something, but it tastes fine. Some people with their own plants put it in salads. I usually skin the green off and only eat the gel because the green is bitter like unripe fruit. A lot of store bought gel is bleached or is really a chemical ointment that's only 1% aloe. I wouldn't eat that.

The outer leaf of the aloe leaf has a lot of fiber and can have a harsh laxative effect. You really only want to eat the inner leaf fillet which has very high nutritional content. This amazing plant contains more than 200 active ingredients including 18 amino acids (protein), 20 minerals, and 12 vitamins (including Vitamin B12). It speeds cell regeneration, can be used as an anesthetic, helps detoxify the system and keeps your GI system functioning well.

The purest aloe vera products come from Forever Living Product who control the growing, processing and production of their aloe gel from beginning to end.
