There are many varieties of aloe throughout the world. Of these only three have the Health properties the name Aloe Vera is renown. Aloe Barbadensis and Aloe Barbadensis-Miller are the varieties used throughout the Health Care, Skin Care and Cosmetic Industry world wide and are the only beneficial varieties.

COLLAGEN AND YOUR SKIN

YOU CAN STIMULATE YOUR OWN NATURAL COLLAGEN BY USING FRESH
ALOE BARBADENSIS-MILLER' LEAVES'
OR OUR OWN
'COMPLETE FACE LOTION'

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body. It is in your muscles, your ligaments and tendons, your bones and your skin and many other parts of the body. It is the main contributor to the elasticity and natural hydration of the skin. Our bodies produce it naturally but as we age we produce less causing our skin to dry and loose it’s elasticity.
Most of the Collagen products you see, contain collagen that is the by-product of animal parts like cow’s teeth, hooves, chicken feathers, various parts of pigs and so on….. Of course the question needs to be asked – “How are the animals treated and what is the process for obtaining the collagen?” Chemicals are often used to process the collagen so that it is absorbed. Harsh chemical agents are used that break down the collagen so it is absorbed.
Collagen is also found in some plants. The most abundant source is from a variety of Aloe called Barbadensis-Miller, (the True Aloe – Vera is Latin for True), and of course the most effective use is direct from the fresh leaf. Pure ‘organic and spray-free’ gels are also an excellent source. Regular and continued application of the gel will stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. It is also advantageous to drink about 100 to 200mls twice daily.
