The aloe plant, also known as Aloe Vera or Aloe barbadensis, has been revered for thousands of years. Hieroglyphics show that the ancient Egyptians used aloe. In more recent times, aloe has played an important role in the folk herbal traditions of India, China and Mexico. Aloe is probably one of the most commonly used herbs, as many people keep a plant on the kitchen windowsill for occasional topical use. In vitro studies have shown that aloe reduces the production of several chemical mediators that contribute to bodily discomfort, such as bradykinin, histamine, thromboxane B2 and prostaglandin F2 alpha. Aloe's soothing effects may also be due to its salicylate content. This succulent member of the lily family is considered to be safe and nontoxic.
The most valuable part of the plant is the gel, rich in comforting polysaccharides, such as glucomannans, composed of the carbohydrate glucose and mannose. Our unique processing techniques separate the bitter, cathartic yellow latex of the aloe plant from the precious gel, preserving the polysaccharides and removing the undesirable anthraquinones, harsh purgatives found in the latex.
Source Naturals is the first to combine aloe with the popular herb stevia.
Whole Leaf Process - Aloe Verite is made from the whole leaf of the aloe plant, allowing for maximum gel extraction.
Not From Concentrate - Most aloe concentrates have been boiled, a process that destroys many of the long chain polysaccharides, known as mucopolysaccharides. ALOE VERITE is pure juice. It is processed in a manner that insures that all the heat sensitive nutrients of the aloe plant remain potent. The result is a truly exceptional aloe product.
Safe - Potentially harmful compounds (aloin and emodin), found in the latex of the aloe vera leaf, have been removed. To protect the aloe from contamination, a minimal amount of preservative is added.
Pure - The aloe used in Aloe Verite is carefully harvested by hand, then cleansed and filtered to maintain the active constituents.
Organic - Aloe Verite is made from organically grown aloe vera leaf from the Aloe barbadensis plant. These plants have been certified as organically grown by the Texas Department of Agriculture.
