Enzyme Active Aloe Vera
Pasteurization has NOT been done for this product as such heating would destroy valuable enzymes. This aloe vera is a natural product that many suppliers refer to as "wild" aloe because no chemicals are used in growing or in processing. Being a natural product, nutrient values may vary slightly as will color and odor due to seasonal fluctuations and soil variations. The fields in southern California produce the finest aloe vera leaves in the world because climate and soil conditions are perfect.
The unique cold processing method used by USA Best Aloe (a division of Set-N-Me-Free), allows the benefits of true raw aloe to be kept and used in the healthy finished products. The pastuerizing and processing methods used by most aloe vera processors will destroy much of the healthful goodness found in the raw aloe gel.
Pastuerizing aloe vera is legally manditory when the aloe is imported into the USA. The heat from pastuerizing does destroy the active enzymes in the raw aloe. Most aloe vera found in the USA is imported, as very little aloe vera is grown in the USA. Unfortunately, most aloe comes from Central and South American 3rd world countries where sanitation is not a priorty. The USA Best Aloe is grown under organic guidelines in Southern California but is not registered as organic.
The classification of USA Best Aloe (Set-N-Me-Free) 10:1 is a concentration of aloe liquid that allows the manufacturer to add 10 parts purified water to one part of aloe (or 10 parts of other ingredients to one part of aloe) and still be a strong enough aloe vera in the product to supply plenty of enzymes, trace elements and other health benefits.
Using this aloe in a shower gel will allow the enzymes to exfoliate dry surface skin, deep clean pores and leave the skin better able to absorb nutrients from other ingredients in the formulation. THIS is what skin care manufacturers are wanting. USA Best Aloe and Set-N-M-Free Aloe is the product that will do that.
Using enzyme-active aloe in lotions, allows the product ingredients to penetrate through layers of skin to nourish and repair damaged cells. Aloe vera works synergistically with other ingredients when enzymes are active in the product to let them do what they do better. THIS is what skin care manufacturers are wanting. USA Best Aloe and Set-N-Me-Free Aloe is the product that will do that.
Using enzyme-active aloe in specialty drinks allow the product to give the enzymes to the digestive system that needs enzymes in order to utilize nutrients from food eaten. Enzyme active aloe will neutralize stomach acid for relief of stomach stress and ulcers.
Enzymes are the vital link in our bodily functions. Without them, no chemical reaction would take place. Vitamins, minerals, and hormones all require enzymes in order to do their work. Enzymes are a life force and when the body can no longer make certain enzymes or take in certain enzymes, it fails to work and life ends. Much of the food we eat has been over cooked and processed causing the enzymes to be destroyed. Drinking a small amount of aloe vera daily will replenish the enzymes and allow the body to function properly.
Aloe vera extracts have a long history of use in personal care products. Consumer expectations of cosmeceutical products are critical to developing effective products and marketing strategies. Consumers demand that products be effective and safe. Aloe vera has the reputation for both of these requirements. Keeping the aloe vera pure and making sure to keep the aloe "enzyme-active" are key components of efficacy in personal care products. Safe and effective products answer the need for today's consumer.
