Aloe is a great detox for the colon- but remember to drink a lot of water with it and throughout the day- this is very important- drink more then you may normally drink since it helps to move the toxins out of your body. I do a liquid cleanse for one to two weeks yearly out on the desert and aloe is one of the ingredients I use. Most important is to drink, drink, and drink to saturate the internal organs with fluids.
