Contrary to what you taste in canned aloe vera juice drinks, pure aloe vera juice is actually quite bitter tasting. As mentioned in our previous quick tip about bitter herbs, bitter herbs tend to have cooling and clearing effects, and this is true for aloe vera.
Aloe vera is particularly used to clear heat from the liver that causes symptoms like short temper, headaches, dizziness, constipation, etc. Its efficacy in treating constipation may be attributed to it having some laxative components.
It is not advisable to add too much sugar to a cooling herb as that may reduce its heat clearing effect. This is therefore a very useful and easily available herb for those with excess heat in the liver.
虽然罐装芦荟汁味道香甜，但纯粹芦荟汁其实味苦。正如前短讯所提及，苦味药可清泄火热。
芦荟善用于清肝火。用治肝经火盛所引起的烦躁易怒，头晕头痛，便秘溲赤等症状。本品有较好的泻下通便之功效，是因它含有刺激性泻下作用的化学成分。
饮芦荟汁时不适合过甜，因糖份过多将减低清热功效。
因此芦荟对于肝经火盛的人是个最佳的饮品。
