In almost every household, Aloe vera is commonly used in traditional medicine to treat skin disorders. In Ayurvedic medicine, rooted in ancient Indian practices, it is said to have a cooling effect that balances aggravations of the pitta dosha.

According to Chennai-based consultant dietician Dr Dharini Krishnan, aloe vera is "full of antioxidants." It's especially good for the summer since this is the season when the body is prone to infections, according to Krishnan. She adds that when consumed, aloe vera has the potential to cool the system.
