What are the steps in harvesting the natural aloe in Ultimate Aloe? 
Aloe is harvested by pulling back on the green leaf and cutting at the white base. Approximately three of the outermost mature leaves are cut from each plant. Leaves are gathered in boxes that are transported immediately to the production facility. Back at the building, production employees feed incoming harvested leaves into the primary washer located just outside the production room. The production room has a stainless steel conveyor system that quickly moves harvested leaves from the primary wash tank outside through a small opening in the wall into the room. The conveyors propel leaves to the mechanical leaf washer, then to the cutting area, and finally through the gel expulsion machines. The production room is kept in an ultra-sanitary state, even when not in use. Employees are required to go through a process of sanitation every time they enter the room and the entire area is thoroughly cleaned after each production run. Once the gel is expelled from the leaves, it is pumped through a de-pulping machine. The pure Aloe gel is then moved through a chilling system designed to bring the temperature of the gel down to 37 degrees Fahrenheit. The chilled gel is stored in an insulated tank, ready to be pumped into a transport tanker for delivery to the processing facility. It is important to use aloe vera that has been processed in a manner to s

The skin and yellow sap (latex) of the aloe vera plant contain at least three fatty acids (HDL cholesterol, campesterol and beta-sitosterol). They represent cortisone-like compounds, which make aloe extremely effective in addressing minor skin injuries. The presence of beta-sitosterol explains why topical aloe vera is effective in skin irritations. Beta-sitosterols are plant sterols that are responsible for aloe's effectiveness as an excellent moisturizer.

Are there any preservatives in Ultimate Aloe? 
Yes. The aloe vera plant is classified as a vegetable and like all plant products, the juice must be preserved or it will rapidly decompose when the leaves are processed. Potassium sorbate (from Mountain Ash trees) and sodium benzoate (from benzoin gum) are used in minute quantities as preservatives, and ascorbic and citric acid are used to stabilize and balance pH levels. Ultimate Aloe is made from 100 percent aloe vera through a unique whole leaf process, using only certified leaves. This method carefully removes the unnecessary aloin and aloe-emodin while still maintaining high levels of modified aloe polysaccharides, which have been shown to contribute too many health benefits. The International Aloe Science Council has certified the aloe content and purity in this product.
