Aloe Vera

Key Constituents

• Aloin: Found in the latex of the aloe plant; known for strong laxative properties. Should be used cautiously for internal consumption.
• Acemannan: A complex polysaccharide supporting cell regeneration, immune function, and providing anti-inflammatory and antiviral effects.
• Polysaccharides: Contribute to immune modulation, anti-inflammatory action, and moisturizing benefits.
• Amino Acids: Contains 20 of 22 required amino acids, including all 8 essential ones; vital for tissue repair and cellular function.
• Vitamins (A, C, E, B12, Folic Acid, Choline): Provide antioxidant protection, support skin health, metabolism, and nerve function.
• Minerals (Calcium, Chromium, Copper, Selenium, Magnesium, Manganese, Potassium, Sodium, Zinc): Support bone health, nerve function, enzymatic reactions, and antioxidant defense.
• Enzymes (Bradykinase, Catalase, Amylase, Lipase, Cellulase, Alliinase): Aid digestion and nutrient absorption; bradykinase helps reduce inflammation.
