Summary, etc. biblio.abstract Aloe vera, the most popular member of the genus Aloe L., is a wonderful healing plant that has been used for the last 6000 years since ancient Egyptian times for its wide of range of pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications.

Aloe arborescens, Aloe ferox, and Aloe excelsa showcase potent antimicrobial properties, contributing significantly to skincare. Aloe secundiflora addresses kidney problems, while Aloe deserti and Aloe secundiflora find traditional use against malaria. Recent scientific studies underscore Aloe vera's potential in dentistry, diabetes management, anti-inflammatory actions, and anti-cancer effects. Species such as Aloe claviflora and Aloe littoralis reveal impressive antioxidant capabilities. Aloe vera and Aloe ferox lead in cosmetics, with their unique properties.

Caution is crucial due to their potential toxicity, emphasizing the need for careful application. Exploring the diverse Aloe genus is imperative for comprehending their specific applications and unlocking untapped industrial potential, promising a wealth of possibilities for various fields.
