Aloe hairdressing
The ancients in China called hair "annoying hair" more accurately, because all modern women have racked their brains to deal with this kind of thing that has no practical value on their heads. They permed their hair today, straightened it tomorrow, and dyed it colorful the day after tomorrow, even spending a lot of money. It is these things that have made female artists, and no one has their own aesthetic declaration on their heads.
Even so, burnt hair and dandruff flying around like snowflakes from time to time are inevitable.
Because there are abundant sweat glands and sebaceous glands on human scalp, fungi can easily attach to them and breed, so dandruff flying around is inevitable.
Because aloe has obvious effects of regulating sebum secretion, sterilization and anti-inflammation, especially killing fungi in the scalp, it is necessary to thoroughly wet the scalp with aloe gel when washing your hair, and then wash it for 5- 10 minutes after careful combing, which can obviously remove dandruff for about two or three times. After repeated verification, this method is very effective; According to the above method, aloe also provides a variety of vitamins and amino acids that the human body can't synthesize, which can make the hair bright and elastic, and is more effective for people who often perm their hair and dye it to make their hair brown; Aloe contains anthraquinones, which can block the ultraviolet radiation in the sun and increase the moisturizing effect of hair. In addition, aloe can promote the blood circulation of the scalp, make the hair more nutritious, and make the hair thicker and more shiny.
As long as you can keep using it, you don't have to worry about "snow" in your hair anymore.
Internal use:
Aloe is very popular now. Not only do restaurants have aloe dishes, but many women who love beauty also plant aloe on their balconies for their own use at any time. In this regard, nutritionists said: Aloe vera is good, but we should also pay attention to methods and appropriate amounts.
Aloe contains a variety of carbohydrates, amino acids, vitamins, minerals and other ingredients, with high nutritional value. After being eaten by human body, it can not only supplement trace elements, but also play the role of clearing away heat, expelling toxin and caring skin. There are many ways to eat aloe, such as making aloe into salad, cooking aloe with meat, and adding aloe as raw material to soup. These practices are widely used in restaurants, but if you eat at home, you can peel aloe directly, wash it with clear water, and then blanch it with boiling water, which is relatively simple. If you are interested, you can also juice aloe, add sugar and drink it together. The prepared aloe juice can be stored in the refrigerator 1 to 2 days.
However, the more aloe you eat, the better it is for your health. There is a moderate problem. Aloe vera is cold. If you eat too much, you will vomit and diarrhea. The general standard limit is no more than 15g per person per day. Pregnant women, the elderly and children should be more cautious when eating aloe.
Also, not all aloe vera is suitable for eating. If you buy aloe vera and grow it at home, you must explain it to the supplier, and they will introduce you to the edible aloe vera.
Aloe peel, don't overdo it
Aloe dinner, aloe juice etc. Emphasize a healthy diet based on aloe. Because aloe skin contains emodin that can easily cause diarrhea, don't eat aloe for a long time, even if you eat it, peel it.
Aloe vera used to be thought to have a cosmetic effect, but it is actually an external herbal medicine, not an edible food. In recent years, aloe is considered to have anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effects, so it is advocated to list aloe as a healthy food with cosmetic and external use functions. The so-called aloe meal and aloe juice are very popular with consumers.
Because emodin contained in aloe skin will cause diarrhea, some people regard it as a holy product to lose weight. It should be noted that, according to an animal study done by the medical community, mice taking aloe vera for a long time, especially emodin in aloe vera skin, will cause gastric cancer. Therefore, it is recommended to eat aloe peel.
At present, there is no strict human experimental research report on edible aloe in China. It is suggested that aloe vera should not be taken for a long time, and it should never be taken in excess. At the same time, young children and pregnant women should be prohibited from taking aloe vera to avoid adverse consequences.
