Unlike the pure inner aloe vera gel found inside the aloe vera leaf, the rind of the aloe vera leaf has essentially no nutritional value.  This means that the presence of the rind in aloe vera products such as aloe vera juice drinks is little more than useless 'filler.'

Why would you pay for filler that is of essentially no benefit  when you want only the pure, inner aloe vera gel?

The promotion of "whole leaf" aloe vera products with the rind included, as being significantly beneficial in some way, is simply incorrect and misleading.  (See picture of inner aloe vera gel, with the rind removed, to the left.)

It takes more time, effort, resources, and money to remove the outer rind than to use a "throw-it-all-in-a-blender" and call it "whole leaf" method that most manufacturers prefer.  That would be like blending the rind of an orange into the juice and calling it "whole orange juice."

The ultimate benefits of aloe vera juice from the pure inner gel more than justifies the extra labor and costs needed for a superior, quality, aloe vera gel product.

Now let's turn our attention to "Powdered" aloe vera.

The various processes used (freezing, air drying, chemicals, etc.) can alter and even destroy the natural benefits of Aloe vera gel.  You simply do not know what you are getting, nor can you be assured of quality control.  (A significant amount of powdered and concentrated aloe vera comes from countries where even minimum quality standards are not enforced by the respective governments.  And, you have no idea how long shipped aloe vera has been just sitting in the container.)

If you feel you MUST purchase powdered and/or concentrated aloe vera juice, do a great deal of homework first.  (Do not e-mail questions to us regarding powdered or concentrated aloe vera.  We will never recommend, nor support the use of, powdered aloe vera nor concentrated aloe vera.)

To get all the benefits of aloe vera juice you want only products made from the pure, inner, aloe vera gel that do not have the useless leaf rind "filler", and that are not watered down, as can be the case with aloe vera drinks found in expensive health food stores and elsewhere.

You want only 100% stabilized aloe vera juice benefits and skin care products that are carefully packaged so that both light and oxygen are blocked from the aloe vera gel contents.  Light and oxygen break down the beneficial properties of Aloe vera gel . . . avoid aloe vera juices that are bottled in clear or translucent (opaque) containers.
