Aloe Vera looks like a cactus but it isn’t - the plant is a member of the lily family which includes garlic and onion. Inside the leaf is a jelly-like substance. Early users of Aloe Vera discovered that when the jelly was applied to a wound, it would heal faster - a remarkable feat in a time, long before anti-biotic ointments, when the infection of a minor wound was often fatal.
