Aloe-Vera, often called the Natural Healer, the Burn Plant, or the Wand of Heaven by the American lndians, dates back as far as 4,000 years. During this time many civilisations have found great benefits from this amazing medical herb, including the Chinese and Indian cultures, the Greeks and Romans, as well as the ancient Egyptians. Legends suggest that Aristotle persuaded Alexander the Great to capture the island of Socotra in the lndian Ocean to get its rich supply of aloe to heal his wounded soldiers. |
