No water added, no fiber or non-aloe additive…just the true whole leaf aloe.
Processed with temperatures that do not destroy biological activity of the plant.
Manufacturer uses wire screen filtration and centrifuge, not enzyme digestion to rid juice of fiber. No cold press or carbon filter.
For the best Aloe Vera juice it takes approximately 10 pounds of aloe leaves to make 1 gallon of 100% Aloe Vera juice – this is how our aloe juice is made.
It is thought that Aloe may also aid in cell protection, cellular oxygenation, anti-oxidant, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory and digestive aid.
What are the benefits of Aloe Vera?
It is thought to help keep the intestinal track (lining) cleaner.

Contains uronic acids which is thought to help strip toxic materials of their harmful effects.

Aloe Vera is a glyconutrient providing all of the 8 essential saccharides which are necessary for cell to cell communication: mannose, glucose, galactose, fucose, xylose. n-Acetylgalactosamine, n-Acetylgalactosamine and n-Acctylneuraminic acid.

Contain anti microbials, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, enzymes, amino acids.

The plant produces the agents Lupeol, Salicylic acid, Urea Nitrogen, Cinnamonic acid, Phenols, and Sulphur, all of which are antiseptics that can control mold, bacteria, fungus, and viruses. Therefore, it can reduce or eliminate many internal and external infections.

Aloe contains anti-inflammatory fatty acids: Cholesterol, Campesterol and B-sitosterol, which is why it is an effective treatment for burns, cuts and abrasions.

I used to sell this stuff (I only stopped because I had a baby and ran out of time to do this)

Aloe Vera is one of the most amazing things you can give to your body as long as it is good quality Aloe Vera (which you can tell by the price) Most health food shop Aloe Vera is very weak and the price tag at £5-£10 reflects this. Good quality Aloe Vera costs about £15-£20 per litre. You name it Aloe Vera will sort it pretty much. It is one of those plants which in improving the immune system has wonderful overall health benefits.

Things that it is known to help with
Asthma, Ezcema, Digestive disorders, All skin disorders, Vitamin deficiencies, Poor hair and Nails, Weight loss, Joint problems the list goes on......

There is a company called Forever Living Products who sell good quality Aloe Vera if you are really keen to make that kind of investment to your health.

I wish I could still afford to take it every day because I would give it to the whole family as I have seen and felt the health benefits personally and watched my eldest daughters ezcema clear up in three months never to return.

I hope this helps

A. vera has been used externally to treat various skin conditions such as cuts, burns and eczema. It is alleged that sap from Aloe vera eases pain and reduces inflammation. Evidence on the effects of A. vera sap on wound, however, healing is contradictory (Vogler and Ernst, 1999). A study performed in the 1990s showed that the healing time of a moderate to severe burn was reduced when the wound was treated on a regular basis with Aloe vera gel, compared to the healing of the wound covered in a gauze bandage (Farrar, 2005). In contrast, another study suggested wounds to which Aloe vera gel was applied were significantly slower to heal (Schmidt and Greenspoon, 1991).

A. vera's beneficial properties may be attributed to mucopolysaccharides present in the inner gel of the leaf, especially acemannan (acetylated mannans). An injectable form of acemannan manufactured and marketed by Carrington Laboratories as Acemannan Immunostimulant™ has been approved in the USA for treatment of fibrosarcoma (a type of cancer) in dogs and cats after clinical trials. It has not been approved for use by humans, and although it is not a drug its sale is controlled and it can only be obtained through a veterinary doctor.

Cosmetic companies add sap or other derivatives from A. vera to products such as makeup, moisturisers, soaps, sunscreens, shampoos and lotions, though the effectiveness of Aloe vera in these produces remains unknown. A. vera gel is also alleged to be useful for dry skin conditions, especially eczema around the eyes and sensitive facial skin.

An article published in the British Journal of General Practice suggests that A. vera is effective at treating athlete's foot [citation needed]. The topical application of A. vera is not an effective preventative for radiation-induced injuries.

Whether or not it promotes wound healing is unknown, and even though there are some promising results, clinical effectiveness of oral or topical A. vera remains unclear at present

Aloe Vera drinks are very good for boosting the immune system. They also have very good cancer fighting properties as well.
But they are very bitter tasting.
