Aloe Peel (Aloe vera) — Dried Aloe Rind & Shreds, Food-Herb Botanical for Tea & Soaks

Aloe Peel (Aloe vera) is the dried rind and shredded leaf material of the well-known succulent herb known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Lú Huì (芦荟). Long honored as a cooling, bitter, and downward-directing herb, aloe has been prized in folk practice for clearing heat, moistening the intestines, and soothing the body both inside and out. Its nature is cold and its flavor bitter, making it a focused yet traditional botanical for gentle internal cleansing and external skin comfort.
