The major compound in Aloe is methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) so that's going to be a great post-exercise lotion for the skin, and for efferocytosis (clearing out metabolic and waste products) in the deeper tissues, and as an anti-inflammatory agent, and for speeding up the production of collagen in healing..
Here's some save-typing info from the web:
"MSM (CH3)2SO2 occurs naturally in many fresh foods but is lost during processing. Its main use in the body is for collagen synthesis, forming skin, blood vessels, hair and nails. Its main benefit is to keep cells, skin and blood vessels elastic, which is the attribute of youth. That is why organic sulphur is often regarded as the beauty mineral. It keeps cell walls permeable so that nutrients can freely flow into the cells and wastes and toxins can easily be removed.
Amino acid chains are usually linked with each other through flexible sulphur bridges. Also the oxidative energy production of cells requires reactive sulphur compounds. Without sufficient organic sulphur as in the form of MSM cells and body structures lose their elasticity and flexibility. The result are the well-known signs of aging: inelastic skin with increasing wrinkles, scar tissue, hardening arteries, varicose veins and also hardened lungs causing emphysema. Sufficient MSM is able to reverse these conditions to a significant degree. The MSM in Aloe Vera is the active ingredient for repairing damaged skin.
MSM is used by athletes to increase [words=http://fleshlight.sjv.io/c/348327/302851/4702]stamina[/words] and minimize sore muscles. Its use for this purpose is even more widespread with racehorses and greyhounds. This effect may be mainly due to the ability of MSM to greatly increase the body's ability to eliminate metabolic residues, wastes and toxins from the cells."
