Aloe species thrive in the desert region and its stems are succulent with liquid which is full of electrolytes. Commonly known around the world as a miracle plant, one of its main functions is to help to improve digestion.

Hence it is the reason why it is also a common plant that is used to make healthy Smoothie, especially for those who are monitoring the weighing scales.
