Description

Key points from the maker

- Plants grow healthier, larger and greener because they make better use of the sun's UV rays, allowing photosynthesis to take place more efficiently.
- Does not alter the genetic makeup of the plant.
- Organically grown product.
- Proven and documented by Texas A&M.
About the process
The aloe vera stabilization process is critical to getting the results listed above. The maker's first patent was for a hand-filleted method, in which the rind was discarded and only the fillet was used. After 38 years it was discovered that a large percentage of the actives in the aloe vera plant were being thrown away with the rind.
In 1962 the maker developed and patented the whole leaf method to stabilize the gel. In 1984 the maker received a third patent, for processing aloe vera leaves differently to create a product that stimulates plant growth.
