Are all aloe vera concentrates the same?
No. Many concentrates have had heat applied as part of their process. One company, whose product we recently tested, processes their aloe using a high-heat evaporation and stabilization process which caramelizes the sugars and also breaks down the large chains which science believes contribute so valuably to healing. It also had extremely high levels of Aloin. Many companies are labeling their products concentrated when, in fact, testing reveals very little of the active ingredients in their products. In other words, their labels are misleading in that the amount of concentrate stated is grossly inaccurate.
