Product Description

Size: QT

Based on its soothing, cooling properties, many refer to Aloe Vera simply as the "medicine plant". Externally, it's been used throughout history to help ease the discomfort of sunburns, minor wounds, cuts, scrapes and rashes. Many researchers believe that aloe can enhance the body's ability to heal by stimulating the activity of collagen and elastin – two compounds responsible for healthy tissue integrity.*

4.0 out of 5 stars Refrigeration required - preservatives added., April 13, 2011

All in all, very good value for the money.

NOTE - item must be refrigerated after opening.

The product contains POTASSIUM SORBATE which is a food preservative with antimicrobial properties - it is used primarily to prevent mold, fungi, etc.

As a preservative, they could have used the more natural "a-tocopherol" (i.e., Vit E). To their credit, they do add ascorbic acid (i.e. Vit C) to this product.

The product also contains another chemical additive, CITRIC ACID (not to be confused with ascorbic acid or Vit C), a preservative/conservative, used primarily to enhance flavor and/or color.

Xanthan (a natural product) is a thickener - a good idea.

Product can be taken internally or applied directly to clean skin. Consult with your physician before taking internally and/or applying topically over broken skin for prolonged periods.

I have been using my gallon for about 3 weeks now and the whole family is happy with it. It has a very nice scent and is nice for helping scratches and small cuts on the hand to heal. I save a lot of money by refilling my hand cream bottles in each bathroom with this.

it is especially helpful when the heater is running a lot in the cold weather.

I use this product every day. It is an effective tonic for sensitive skin. I use it on myself after bathing--just slather it on. Mixed with a little tea tree oil, it takes care of rashes that my dog develops from time to time. I also drink a couple of ounces every morning to stabilize digestion. The dogs get a dose in their food, as well. Great stuff!
