Aloe Vera Juice Benefits

Aloe Vera Basics

Aloe Vera is a succulent (great quantities of water stored in the inner part of the leaf known as "Gel") plant that most likely originated in Africa and is now found on nearly every continent of the world. Aloe vera gel is used in modern times for beauty products (lotions, cosmetics, etc.), juices, and even has a growing presence in the food industry as a natural preservative.

There are over 200 types of aloe in the world. Of these the most important in for human health and nutrition is Aloe Barbadensis Miller, more commonly known as Aloe Vera ("true" aloe or "medicinal" aloe).

As one of the oldest recognized botanicals with benefits for the skin, Aloe Vera has long been lauded for its natural soothing, cooling, and moisturizing abilities. When applied to your skin Aloe Vera can soothe minor burns, comfort and moisturize stressed skin, and even help aid in your skin's ability to regenerate itself.

The Aloe Vera Gel, pictured in the bottle above, is the PUREST consumable aloe vera in the world.

The aloe vera juices and other aloe vera items featured here meet and exceed pharmaceutical standards. They include the purest and naturally potent aloe vera gel for juices, skin care, personal hygiene, hair care, and body care.

Aloe Vera Nutrients

With over 200 nutrition compounds in the gel of Aloe Vera (the rind has essentially no nutritional value), Aloe Vera Juice drinks that start with the pure gel are packed with nutritional value. Because of the importance of aloe vera gel for nutrition a paragraph here will not suffice. Instead a full page is dedicated to this important topic: see the Top Ten Aloe Vera Juice Benefits for more detailed information.

Why Stabilized Aloe Vera Gel?

This same process occures with the inner gel of aloe vera. Thus it is critical that the gel is "stabilized" without losing nutritients and other health benefits found in the gel for both internal and external use. The aloe vera gel in the drinks, skin and other product on this site (from Forever Living Products) are all made with the primary ingredient of 100% stabilized aloe vera gel. In fact, an independent laboratory found that FLP's aloe vera gel is essentially identical to the gel found in the leaf of a living plant.

Light Diminishes Nutrient Quality

The very presence of light can break down the nutrient properties of aloe vera gel. Similar to the dark bottles used for hydrogen peroxide (which would break down if exposed to light and become worthless), these aloe vera drinks and body care items are carefully bottled and packaged to prevent any light from penetrating the containers. In fact, the juices are made with three distinct layers of plastic, that can be recycled in most areas.

When you see aloe vera drinks or skincare in clear or transluscent bottles, you will want to think twice before buying them. (Extracting and stabilizing the pure aloe gel from the inner leaf, within hours of hand-harvesting from the plant, is an expensive but necessary process for the highest quality and purity of aloe vera content. When you see a gallon of juice on a store shelf that sells for $5 or $10 for the gallon, you want to assess what is more important: cheap and poorly made or something that costs more, but is the purest and freshest available and carefully packaged to guarantee quality of content.)
