The name ALOE/200X™ refers to the fact that it takes 200 pounds of inner aloe vera gel fillets to make one pound of this nourishing aloe extract. This concentrated aloe is manufactured with the goal of preserving as much of the plant's natural source as possible. This is done by never filtering the product, thereby preserving the natural components, and never allowing the product to reach a temperature above 99° Fahrenheit. This low-temperature dehydration system ensures that the long-chain polysaccharides remain intact, just as they are found in nature. The longer the polysaccharide chain, the more effective it is at supporting immune function.
