#1 Plant To Treat Sunburns, Bug Bites, Acne, & Wounds Too!

Science is now catching up to the traditional healing uses of aloe vera. Applying the cooling inner gel of this succulent plant has been successful in treating:

Sunburns and Burns: Patients with second degree burns experienced accelerated healing and pain relief with aloe.3 Most people tend to use it for sunburns — ahhhh, so soothing!
Acne: Aloe has anti-inflammatory power which has been found to successfully treat mild to moderate acne.4
Wounds: A study confirmed that aloe helps wounds heal because it actually increases collagen content.1 It’s also an antibacterial!2
Bug Bites: Summer is here and the mosquitoes are hungry!

Check out this testimonial of how our MSM Aloe Gel is the only product that relieves itching and swelling from those pesky bites…

MSM Aloe Gel is my saving grace. With 2 cats, a dog, a very active toddler & a passion for outdoor yoga—bug bites during the summertime are inevitable for me. Instead of getting small bumps, my skin gets irritated and swollen. I have tried everything, from baking soda to over the counter antihistamine, but nothing helps 100%.

Then came the day I found MSM Aloe Gel. The aloe soothes and almost completely minimizes itching while the MSM works to reduce inflammation and redness. The peppermint extract gives the gel an amazing and refreshing smell and cools the infected areas. It doesn’t make me drowsy like antihistamines, and has never given me any adverse reactions. It is even safe for my daughter to use! I highly suggest MSM Aloe Gel to anyone with pets or a passion for the outdoors!” - Hannah, Sunfood Customer


MSM + Aloe = Soothing Pain Relief

The healing properties of aloe are doubled by MSM in our MSM Aloe Gel because MSM (MethylSulfonylMethane) is a sulfur compound that acts as a powerful anti-inflammatory.5 This cooling gel contains aloe, MSM and herbal extracts of green tea, turmeric (another known anti-inflammatory!)6, arnica (excellent for reducing pain and inflammation)7, ginger and peppermint. Completely natural, MSM Aloe Gel is safe for your children and pets, too!

“I have been using this product for years and just love it. We use it for sunburn relief, bug bites, cuts, abrasions, and acne. My husband has used it as an after shave lotion.” - Colleen, Sunfood Customer

The uses for one little bottle are countless, from sunburns and bug bites, to acne treatment and minor cuts/abrasions.
