Thanks for the help on information rendered in 2010. Happy New Year too!

I would like to find out if it is safe to use Aloe Vera if you are HIV positive with a CD4 count of over 1000. I have been taking it for over 3 years. Are there any known side effects or studies conducted on Aloe Vera?

Thank you for your question and a Happy New Year to you too.

It is fine to use Aloe Vera, there are no interactions with HIV medications.
