Scientific research has shown Aloe Vera to be a natural cleanser which can penetrate tissue seven layers deep, anesthetize, and moisturize. It is recognized as a bactericidal, virucidal, fungicidal, antipyretic (reduces fever), and as an anti-inflammatory agent. It breaks down dead tissue, which hastens healing, and enhances normal cell proliferation, which speeds up the regenerative phase of healing. It also dilates capillaries, increasing circulation, and is nutritional in itself, providing a wide range of vitamins and minerals.

Aloe Vera is approved by the Food and Drug Administration as a safe food additive (See FDA Chapter One; Paragraph 172.510), and as a treatment for burns and minor skin irritations. Historically, Aloe Vera has been used since 400 B.C. as a skin beautifier as well as to treat burns.

Why is Heritage aloe vera better? First, the extraction is a totally controlled cold process that ensures vitality in the aloe. Our process also preserves the potential of aloe's vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, polysaccharides and mucopolysaccharides. Most other processes apply heat, which destroys enzymes. Often, manufacturers use strong solvents and a centrifuge to extract aloe juices. Both processes destroy some of the longer molecules of mucopolysaccharides, which are the components many consider the most beneficial. Some aloes are freeze-dried, then reconstituted by adding water. Because many of the solids are not readily soluble, some of the active ingredients are destroyed or discarded in this process. The Heritage process is different. No heat, strong solvents or centrifuging are used, and the finished product is, therefore, more like the natural plant.

Second, Heritage scientists have added five herbs to help bolster the effects of the aloe. These herbs and their commonly known properties are as follows:
Ginseng - promotes lung function; enhances immune function; normalizes blood pressure.
Pau d'Arco - contains a natural antibacterial agent; cleanses the blood.
Red Clover - an antibiotic; a relaxant; an appetite suppressant.
Astragalus - protects the immune system; increases metabolism; promotes healing.
Echinacea - immune system strengthener; reduces high blood pressure.

These herbs synergistically combine with the Aloe Vera, thereby creating a product far superior to plain Aloe Vera juice.
