Is it safe to give aloe vera juice to a toddler???

Answer 1

Please go easy and don't give more than a tiny bit.  It has been known to cause problems.

Answer 2

yep, however because it has laxative properties go easy.  most toddlers don't have a problem with consitipation.  I'm curious as to what reason you would want to give it to a toddler? for skin purposes?  dang, they already have nice skin.

Answer 3

yes, in small amount, for what reason? Look for dosage by placing Aloe Vera juice in the Yahoo search engine and see what answers will come.

Answer 4

Yes children can drink Aloe Vera! It is the most natural and safe traditional bitter herb when in the juice form for children and adults(2). It soothes stomach upset and encourages daily regularity without being a laxative. Topically Aloe Vera is a sulfur rich herb that takes the pain out of a burn or bite fast. Natural safe occurring growth factors, antimicrobials and  anti inflammatory agents found in the yellow sap reduces swelling and stimulates new cell growth almost miraculously(3). Helps diaper rash too! Quality Aloe Vera products such as the Aloe Life brand contains all of the 200 constituents undiluted (including minerals that keep electrolytes plentiful) in the Whole Leaf Concentrated Juice containing more of the yellow sap.
