The Predecessor to Aloe Vera
Derived from the Latin name of 'wild Aloe' is Aloe Ferox. Aloe Ferox
is from the same family as the more popular Aloe Vera and is indigenous
of South Africa.
Ferox is physically a much stronger plant than Vera. It is much larger
in size and the leaves are almost impossible to break by hand. The middle
of the plant is equally robust.
Unlike the more common Vera plant, Ferox is never cultivated. The Ferox
plant grows wild and only the lower leaves are ever harvested.
*Please note that Ferox is a protected species and we assure that no
harm occurs to the plant during this process. In fact the opposite happens
- the plant becomes stronger through harvesting.
The plant is neither irrigated nor treated with pesticides or insecticides.
Containing three times as many polysaccharides than Aloe vera, this plant
is so strong that Its survival is sustained through the strength of its
own immune system.
In addition, it also contains around 160 different secondary plant substances,
such as iso, bio flavinoids and aloiside. Research shows that secondary
plant substances can have an anti bacterial and anti mycotic (anti fungal)
effect. The proportion of amino acids (proteins) is 2 to 1 in comparison
with Aloe Vera. It also contains considerably more iron and calcium.
