Aloe Vera is a member of the succulent plant family and has dark green leaves filled with a juicy gel. The plant has long been a folk remedy for everything from soothing and healing burns to a makeup remover. Aloe Vera can also be used as a natural remedy for constipation, but it is not recommended as it can cause diarrhea and become unsafe. It has been linked to kidney disease and cancer. However, if you really want to use aloe to relieve constipation, you can purchase it as a juice, a gel, or in capsule form.
