What is Aloe Vera?

Often called the 'Miracle Plant' or the 'Natural Healer', Aloe Vera is a plant of many surprises. It flourishes in warm and dry climates; many people mistake it for a cactus, but, in fact, it is a member of the Lily family.

The Aloe family of plants includes over 200 varieties - including a few that are poisonous to humans! Aloe Barbadensis Miller (Aloe Vera) has been of most use to humankind.

A succulent plant with thick fleshy leaves that conceal an inner gel, it has been used for centuries to maintain health and enhance beauty. Flourishing in warm, dry climates, ancient records show that the benefits of Aloe Vera have been known for centuries. Its therapeutic advantages and healing properties have survived more than 5,000 years.

Today the reputation of this remarkable plant continues to grow. It is used by millions of people around the world for both external applications and internal use, many of which are documented in Magazines & Newspapers.

Why choose to use FLP Aloe Vera?

Forever Living Products and its affiliates grow over 80% of the world's cultivatable Aloe Vera.  We are the foremost grower, processor and distributor of Aloe Vera products. We were the first company in the world to receive the International Aloe Science Council Seal of Approval, a confirmation of excellence. 

Aloe vera is versatile - our wide range includes drinks, skincare, personal care and cosmetics. The key to our success is that we don't simply add a few drops of aloe vera to our products, we start with 100% inner gel and add just enough other ingredients as needed. Poor diet, stress, caffeine, over-processed foods, etc. can all lead to less than tip-top health. Aloe, with its wealth of essential nutrients, can help redress the balance.

FLP’s unique process

Aloe Vera is available in many forms from freeze-dried gel to 'whole leaf' and 'double-strength'. Some companies even add bleaching agents to their aloe products. 

Our Aloe Vera has a patented stabilisation process and contains no artificial flavouring or colouring that ensures that our aloe is essentially identical to the inner leaf gel. Freshness is therefore assured. FLP Aloe was tested by the Food & Drug Laboratories of New York who stated that FLP Aloe Vera Gel is 'essentially identical' to the raw gel of a fresh leaf.  Our aloe is also free from herbicides, pesticides, pasteurisation, freeze drying and heat treatment.

There is also a complete money-back guarantee on all our products, which is not offered on most store-bought Aloe.
