Hi
Ich habe heute im Arznei Telegramm Folgendes gelesen :
"[...] Die einzige wahrscheinlich begründete Wirkung von Aloe ist der abführende Effekt von anthrachinonhaltigen Zubereitungen zur innerlichen Anwendung. Die Verwendung als Laxans lässt sich wegen des kanzerogen und gentoxischen Potenzials allerdings nicht rechtfertigen. Die übrigen Anwendungsgebiete erachten wir als nicht bzw. nicht hinreichend belegt.[...]"
und bei www.quackerywatch.com :
"[...] The safety of aloe is another concern. Genotoxicity studies show that aloe-containing laxatives pose cancer risk to humans when used as directed [4]. Aloe extract can be taken orally as a dietary supplement, but does not have FDA approval for use as a drug [16]. Currently, aloe is a Category I over-the-counter stimulant laxative, meaning that it is generally recognized as safe and effective if used appropriately for this purpose [17]. The FDA recommends further testing and safety data for aloe. Some deaths have been reported of cancer patients who were treated with aloe vera intravenously by a physician whose license was subsequently revoked [16,18-20]. Injection of aloe vera is illegal in the United States, but desperate people can go to other countries where there is less regulation for unproven treatments.[...]"
