It has stomachic effect. Aloe-emodin is released in the intestines and exerts a stimulating laxative effect. The main site of action is in the large intestine. It has obvious therapeutic effect on various types of constipation.
(3) Anti-cancer effect
Studies have found that aloe gel, the sticky substance contained in aloe vera, has a strong anti-cancer effect.

Dr. Yunan Suzuki of Japan uses aloe vera extract - aloe carcinogen-A to treat malignant tumors, with an effective rate of 76%. Many scholars have further studied and found that this extremely anti-cancer substance is aloe imazine, named aloin-A. It is a high molecular glycoprotein with a relative molecular mass of 18,000. China's anti-tumor research on aloe vera has found that aloe alcohol extract and aloe picrin can significantly improve the body's immune function. Aloe vera is a promising new anti-cancer drug. The clinical application of aloe vera in the treatment of liver cancer, gastric cancer, uterine cancer, etc. has produced unexpected results. Efficacy.
