Curtailing HIV Infection:

An extract of mannose, one of the sugars in Aloe, can inhibit HIV-1 the virus associated with AIDS. According to the study in Molecular Biotherapy, HIV-1 cells were treated in vitro (outside the body) with a mannose extract. Aloe slowed virus reproduction by as much as 30 percent, reduced viral load (total amount of the virus), from the infected cells, and increased the viability (chance of survival) of infected cells.

Nutritional Support for   HIV Patients:

Aloe Vera juice proved to be an effective part of a nutritional support programmme for HIV+ patients according to the journal of Advancement in Medicine. For four months, 29 patients were given 100 percent pure Aloe Vera juice (five ounces, four times daily) along with an essential fatty acid supplement and another supplement containing vitamins, mineral, and amino acids. Patients were told to continue with their normal diet and not to take other supplements.

After 90 days, all of patients had fewer occurrences of opportunistic infections, thrush, fatigue and diarrhea, as well as increased white blood cell counts (meaning their immune systems were responding positively). Their assessment of overall quality of health also improved.

In 25% of the patients, Aloe apparently knocked out the virus's ability to reproduce. Researchers found that Aloe (the mannose extract and perhaps other compounds) stimulates the body's immune system, particularly T4 helper cells, white blood cells that activate the immune response to infections.
