Default Aloe - which form?

Hi all! My doctor recommended I start taking aloe to help manage interstitial cystitis symptoms. I bought the juice kind and mix it with grape juice but its kinda slimy and I wonder if the lemon that the aloe is mixed with might irritate my bladder further. I noticed that its available in capsules as well - does it provide the same benefits when taken as a capsule? Or should I just suck it up and drink the juice?

Slimy? That's odd. I have a bottle of Fruit of the Earth brand. It's like water with a tiny bit of effervescence. You might just want to try another brand.
