This rare aloe juice is produced only from five-year-old Aloe arborescens plants harvested at full maturity. They are processed by grinding the whole leaf (not just the gel inside). No heating, cold pressing or freeze drying is used. This unusual means of processing preserves the full potency of active, revitalizing components.In contrast to the more familiar Aloe vera, Aloe arborescens is a nutritionally superior variety, providing over 200 distinct medicinal compounds that are essential for maintaining healthy cellular function.The raw honey in this traditional formula is unpasteurized. This means the immune-boosting enzymes, minerals and nutrients remain active and potent. Because honey is the one food that does not spoil, it serves as a natural preservative, ensuring the formula is shelf stable.
