The Clinical Power of Aloe: Gut, Skin & Inflammation

For over 25 years as a functional medicine doctor, I’ve seen one thing hold true: true healing starts at the root. Aloe vera isn’t just a sunburn remedy—it’s a science-backed botanical tool that supports your gut, your skin, and your inflammation response at the same time.

And yes—I use it myself. Living with lupus and Addison’s disease means my immune system and skin need consistent, clinical care. What I share with my patients, I live daily.
