First of all, I wrote a review on a hair, skin and nails supplement so you can read about that here. It’s interesting that these two products I’m interested in both have Aloe Vera in them. So I’m going to focus on aloe a bit and how it helps with collagen support. I’ve always used Aloe for sunburn but surprisingly when its consumed orally in a safely distributed supplement or juice it can provide support in more ways. Aloe has a long history of medicinal uses dating back to Ancient China and Egypt. It was known as a sacred plant which held the secrets to health and beauty. It’s many uses and long history has proved it to be the most studied herb in the natural products category.
Protect your natural collagen
Replenish your skin
Improve texture and elasticity
Aloe vera helps to regenerate skin
The definition of Aloe from Wikipedia is here: Aloe, also written Aloë, is a genus containing over 550 species of flowering succulent plants. The most widely known species is Aloe vera, or “true aloe”, so called because it is cultivated as the standard source of so-called “aloe vera” for assorted pharmaceutical purposes.
Benefits to Aloe
- Skin care-helpful for many skin remedies like sunburn, acne and dry skin with anti-inflammatory benefits both topically and orally
- Keeping produce fresh-coat aloe gel on produce and it can prolong the freshness
- Heartburn relief-incorporating aloe juice into the daily diet can help soothe pain due to anti-inflammatory properties
- Use as a mouthwash-loaded with vitamin c, aloe vera extract can block plaque and can provide relief for swollen gums
- Lowering blood sugar-having 2 tablespoons daily of aloe juice can help lower blood sugar for people with type 2 diabetes
- Natural Laxative-used sparingly aloe can be used to relieve constipation
- Supports Digestion-can clean the gut by cleansing the body of toxins
Always check with your doctor
Aloe can interfere if you’re currently taking certain medicines or have medical conditions
What is Collagen
Collagen gives our skin a youthful glow but as people age, collagen starts to decrease due to stress, environment and aging. Collagen is naturally made in the body and is the most plentiful protein in your body. Collagen is in your bones, ligaments, muscles, tendons, organs, blood vessels, intestinal lining, skin and other connective tissues. As people age they have certain signs that point to lower collagen levels. Collagen levels can’t be measure but some of the following signs are obvious.
- GI problems
- Wrinkles and saggy skin
- Stiff tendons and ligaments
- Joint pain or osteoarthritis
- Shrinking and weak muscles
Poor diet is also a reason for falling collagen levels. Proteins are made of amino acids. Amino acids are organic compounds that combine to form proteins. Proteins and amino acids are the building blocks of life. Amino acids are remaining when proteins are digested or broken down. Be sure to eat some of the following protein rich foods to support collagen levels.
- Beans
- Nuts
- Seeds
- Eggs
- Dairy
- Beef
- Chicken
- Fish
When people age their body sometimes doesn’t absorb nutrients efficiently. It’s important to consume proper protein rich foods or take plant based supplements like Plant Collagen by YourSuper.

Very interesting article. I was not aware there were so many advantages of using aloe vera. I typically only used it to treat sunburn. This product called “plant collagen” sounds very interesting. Do you know if it is a cream, powder, or capsule? How do you take it and how often? Do you happen to know the price?

I’m a big fan of aloe vera and I am aware that it can be used for collagen, acne and heartburn. But I was not aware that it’s useful for type 2 diabetes and constipation. One of my aunt suffers from type 2 diabetes, I will recommend aloe vera to her. She obviously needs to speak to her doctor before taking it.
Many thanks for this highly beneficial post.
@Habib great that my article What is Plant Collagen can help! Best wishes for good health.
I learned quite a bit from this article. I used to drink Aloe Vera every day. I don’t know why I ever got away from it.
I’ll look forward to your collagen review. I have talked to some people who rave about the improvements they experience with skin, nails and hair from collagen supplements. Others seem to experience no noticeable results.
The video was informative and easy to watch. I liked the funky music. It sounded a bit like 1970s Allman Brothers.
Thanks for doing the research so I can learn from your article.
@Glenn I actually haven’t tried aloe juice but I plan to soon. Thanks for visiting today and for your comments. Best wishes.
This is an awesome article! I love spreading important information , especially when it talks about Aloe vera…. used correctly and you can help support many things within your body.
I use Aloe Vera when I make a hair mask using aloe vera as a main ingredient! Keep it up!
Keep Being AMAZING!
@Brenda thank you for your kind comment. Best wishes to you!!
Hello. One of my absolute favorites are Aloe Vera. It is such a versatile plant with sooooo many health benefits. Thank you bringing this valuable information to light. Many more people need to know about this. Keep it coming !!
All the best
@Felicity thank you for your comment and stopping by today! Best wishes for good health.
This was super illuminating. Although I knew about collagen’s effect on the skin, I did not think about its effect on ligaments and tendons. And also muscles. As a dancer, this is another reason for me to be taking a collagen supplement. We strive to protect our bodies and keep them in peak performance as we age, and this product looks perfect! I am glad that there is the option of plant collagen as I wouldn’t use an animal alternative. Thank you for explaining the benefits so clearly. This was really helpful 🙂
@Natalie thanks for stopping by today. I’m glad my article has helped you! Best wishes.
