There are many Aloe Vera products out there in the market today. But did you know that some of the Aloe Vera products that you buy may be misrepresenting how much Aloe Vera is actually contained in the product? You’d probably be surprised to learn that according to the FDA (United States Food
and Drug Administration) a manufacturer can legally have only two tablespoons of Aloe Vera in one LITRE OF WATER and still call it 100% Aloe Vera juice!
The next time you see a juice that says “100% Aloe Vera”, check the label carefully.
Because of this, an organization was formed to certify Aloe Vera products that display true Aloe Vera content and literature. This organization is called The International Aloe Science Council or IASC.
Maintaining Quality:
With so much variation in the market,
maintaining the quality of Aloe Vera is key
to retaining Consumer confidence. There
are three key tests of Quality:
1. The Official IASC (International Aloe
Science Council) seal on the package
or product container.
2. Stabilised Aloe Vera gel is listed as
the FIRST ingredient on the contents
list, and beware of products that state
“aqua” (Water) as the first ingredient
as this almost certainly means that the
contents is re-constituted powder.
3. That the gel is sold in a sealed container
that preserves the integrity of the
contents.
