All aloe ain't aloe. Most aloe products are inactive (that means dead)



There are many powerful components of the Remarkable Wellness Secret called Ambrotose Complex and just one of them is aloe vera.  Everyone's heard of it.  I had one on my counter for many years and have used it more times than I can count for it's immediate health properties.  But I never really thought about how or why it worked.  I just knew I could count on it


Turns out, very quickly after it is cut and dried, the active health components of the aloe called monosaccharides and polysaccharides, become inactive and die very quickly.  This is one of the main reasons why so many of the aloe products on the market unfortunately are ineffective.

The most amazing discovery was that these active ingredients provide specific healthy sugars to the body that help support the immune system, digestive function in the intestines and stomach, enhance memory, mood and cognition function and they facilitate cell-to-cell communication all over the body.

Back around 1984, an innovative team of scientists and MD's discovered a process to dry the aloe properly so for the first time in the history of aloe, the key components stayed ALIVE AND ACTIVE.  The process is called " immediate low-temperature freeze-dehydration"  This is the only non-toxic method of stabilization of the saccharides.  If the aloe is in a liquid form, it has to be degraded by the addition of a toxic substance to make sure no microbes will grow in it, thus making them inferior options for aloe protection.  This team patented this process and it eventually became the base of a remarkable wellness product called Ambrotose Complex by Mannatech Inc.


Bill McAnalley, PhD, provided a huge service to humanity when he isolated “acemannan,” as the beneficial healing component of the Aloe vera plant. His team's research has revealed a massive amount of science validating the power aloe has on the human cells and function.

Aloe Vera up close and personal

For over 6000 years, the aloe vera plant, Aloe barbadensis, has been used medicinally and nutritionally both internally and externally by many cultures for its powerful, beneficial effects on human health. Today aloe vera gel continues to be used in supplements, foods, beverages, and cosmetics. Aloe leaves consist of two major parts, the outer leaf epidermis and the inner leaf gel, which are very different in their chemical composition and properties. 

Aloe gel is obtained from the inner portion of the leaves. Much of the health benefits observed by the use of aloe vera gel may be attributed to its high molecular weight polysaccharides. Before a process was developed to stabilize aloe vera gel or extracts, fresh preparations were regarded as being required for any therapeutic efficacy. It has now been shown that careful drying of aloe vera gel can retain the polysaccharide content important for producing many of its health benefits.

     There are very few studies exploring what happens to aloe vera gel once ingested. It has been demonstrated that the human gut bacteria can digest polysaccharides from aloe vera when it has been prepared properly. Aloe has a long history of safe use, dating back thousands of years.
