Aloe vera, or aloe for short, has long been celebrated and utilized in the Middle East, Asia, and South America. Still, it’s only recently that this mini-miracle plant has had its chance to shine in this part of the world.
While you may be aware of the topical benefits for your skin aloe offers, did you know about its power in aiding your gut health? Aloe supports healthy digestion, soothes the stomach, supports nutrient absorption and intestinal health, and relieves occasional indigestion.
Herbalife’s Herbal Aloe Concentrate harnesses these beneficial properties of aloe and opens the door to bringing them into your diet. A product review is one of the best ways to check out something new — like these three different delicious recipes showing how aloe can help your gut.

The Mango Tango Shake is just 240 calories and contains 19 grams of protein. The Herbal Aloe Concentrate brings digestive and gut support to the shake. Additionally, although more research is required, there’s even evidence to believe that compounds in aloe could be a prebiotic ingredient, stimulating the growth of beneficial bacteria in the body’s digestive tract. The low-fat milk brings protein to the shake, and Herbalife Nutrition Formula 1 contains a protein blend of pea, rice and quinoa, fiber, and 21 vitamins and minerals. Lastly, mangos are rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, folate and contain a slew of other vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. As a result of its nutritional profile, mangos support the cardiovascular system, aid in digestive health, support healthy cell division, and may lower your risk of cancer.
