Cape Aloe (Aloe ferox) is a woody shrub that produces long, fleshy leaves from which a bitter, thick aloin‑rich extract is obtained. It is primarily used as a purgative to treat constipation and as a topical agent for wound healing, burns, and inflammatory skin conditions. Consumers should avoid prolonged internal use, as it can cause abdominal cramps, electrolyte imbalances, and liver irritation; some people may develop skin irritation or allergic reactions when applied externally.
