Why is my aloe plant turning yellow?

Aloe vera is a cactus-like succulent that has become a popular houseplant in recent years. Originating from the Arabian Peninsula, aloe is a fast-growing indoor plant due to how easily it grows in a range of different environments.

Rich in vitamins A, C and E, aloe plants are well known for their antioxidant properties, used to reduce inflammation when topically applied to the skin. Healthy aloe plants have thick, vibrant green leaves but these can turn yellow and then start to turn brown if your plant isn’t doing well.
