We have been using Aloe Vera for years in a lot of different products, but have you ever wondered about its history? Who was the first to determine it could be used for medicinal needs or even be ingested? Well you will learn that Aloe Vera originates in Africa. It is a native plant of the warm, dry climates, in other words the semi- tropical areas. It should not surprise you that history has shown about 3500 years ago the Egyptians found the Aloe Vera plant to be of great use. It is said that King Solomon grew the plant, and that Alexander the Great used it for his army.
From those early times you will find that the history of Aloe Vera continues with the Indians, Persians, Japanese, Russians, and Greek healers also found the Aloe Vera plant to be of use. They used the plant during these times for many diseases, despite not knowing the chemistry we know today about the plant.
During the history of Aloe Vera you will find that there are over two hundred different species of the plant around the world, however only a few of these species have the best capabilities for medicinal issues. Four of the two hundred species are said to contain therapeutic healing qualities. In other words they are going to be able to help heal most ailments. You will also find in the history of Aloe Vera many studies were done on the plant throughout history to determine what was most beneficial and why. Like most things the word got out that the plant could be used for first aid purposes so many physicians would use it as an antiseptic. During the history of Aloe Vera it was also discovered to help with ailments of the kidneys and other intestinal issues.

Burns and other skin disorders such as eczema were soon discovered to be healed and helped by the Aloe Vera plant. In fact in the 1930's many countries were using the plant to treat burns. It was used again to treat problems during the later wars. While the plant history of Aloe Vera began in Africa it soon spread to the entire world. Visitors would bring the plants back to their homes or look for it in their native lands. Writers continued to keep history alive by writing down the information found about the plants to help those in the future understand how it could help, and now we know that it is beneficial against aging, skin irritations, and intestinal issues.

Religion plays an enormous role in every aspect of Latin American life. From the time of birth Latin Americans are put through ritual at every important point in life. The magnificent history of religion can be seen by viewing the beautiful, well preserved churches that line the city streets in many Latin American countries. How does religion guide the development of Latin America and does it play a role in the governments the rule Latin American countries?
Religious identity is a big part of any person's life. It forms and shapes you as a person, good and bad. The power of religion over it's followers is a power unlike anything known to us. If there is a perceived threat against a person's faith there can be a backlash that is terrifying. We have all seen through current events the rage created when people feel their faith is under attack. Therefore it would be difficult to imagine peace in Latin America if say Roman Catholics felt persecuted. The positive role of religion in Latin America often leads, to the dismay of democracy advocates, to Socialist leanings in the elected officials of Latin America. The people realize that to truly embrace the teachings of their faith they must take care of each other and the least among them. This has led to the elections of less than desirable leaders like Hugo Chavez and Evo Morales. Less desirable by the US government standard that is. Hopefully the people will find the right balance between empowering themselves, religion and following the teachings of their spiritual leaders.
Roman Catholicism is the dominant religion in Latin American and there is no sign of that changing soon. The fear of some is the active program by Christians in the US to convert Latin Americans with the promise of increase prosperity will alter the very cultures of Latin America. Most of us realize that will not happen in our lifetimes but Protestants are on the rise inside Latin American with no end in sight. The best we can all hope for is that Latin American countries emphasize religious freedom and avoid the trappings of other poor countries which destroy each other over religious differences.
Currently, the role of religion in Latin America is just another piece of a diverse culture and a spiritual people that honor life, each other and want the best for the generations that follow them.
