This \u003cstrong\u003ealoe vera\u003c\/strong\u003e from Swanson comes in a softgel that is easy to swallow. No gel you have to measure out yourself, no sticky hands, no bitter taste. Each softgel provides 25 mg of a highly concentrated extract. The plant grows naturally in warm, dry regions and has been used for thousands of years. Convenient for those who prefer to take aloe vera in a solid, measured form rather than as a drink or gel from a bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat a 200:1 concentrate means\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 25 mg in each softgel is not just any 25 mg. It is a 200:1 concentrate. This means that 200 parts of the fresh plant have been reduced to 1 part powder. During this process, the water mainly evaporates from the leaf, which makes up the largest part of the fresh plant, while the solids remain. In practice, the amount of aloe vera per softgel therefore corresponds to approximately 5 grams of fresh leaf gel. Small in size, so, but highly concentrated. This way, you do not need to take spoonfuls of gel to get a noticeable amount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrom the inside of the leaf\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn aloe leaf consists of two clearly different parts. Just under the skin is a yellow layer, the latex. Inside that is the clear, watery gel of the inner leaf, the part that made the plant so well known. This product uses that inner gel, not the latex. The difference therefore lies in which part of the leaf you take, and that makes quite a difference to the composition. Aloe vera from the inner leaf is the variant you most often encounter in supplements and personal care products, and it is exactly that part that has been processed here in concentrated form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAloe vera\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAloe vera contributes to the natural defense and maintenance of a normal immune system*. In addition, aloe vera helps maintain healthy skin*. Good to know: the softgel is made of gelatin, an animal protein, and contains soy due to the soy oil used. This product is therefore not plant-based and is not suitable for those with a soy allergy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short, this is a compact way to take aloe vera: a 200:1 concentrate from the inner leaf, in a softgel that you take twice a day with water. One hundred softgels per bottle, good for about fifty days, without having to measure or mix anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Health claim pending European approval.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Swanson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47527005749586,"sku":"Swanson-040","price":11.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/AloeVera100softgelsswanson.jpg?v=1704544353","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/swanson-aloe-vera-25mg-100-softgels","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
