The Natural Alternative for the Health of your Horse.
Some important things you need to look out for when choosing your Aloe Vera products in order to enjoy all the benefits of ‘true’ Aloe Vera!
Due to the ever increasing popularity of Aloe Vera, demand for Aloe Vera products has inevitably led to the introduction of poor quality products to the market. These sort of products tend to contain much less Aloe Vera as a percentage by volume.
The marketing behind this type of lower quality products usually rides on the back of the extensive and positive publicity of the effects of high quality Aloe Vera. Unfortunately the huge disparity in quality, efficacy, purity, and potency between the different product brands of Aloe Vera is not always obvious.
To be sure that you putting the power of ‘true’ Aloe Vera to work on your behalf, before buying any Aloe Vera product, check to make sure it is a product high in Aloe Vera content, with Aloe Vera appearing as the first item listed on the ingredients panel. The law requires that the ingredients on the label must be listed by volume with the highest volume content item listed first.
You should also make sure that the product carries the International Aloe Science Council (IASC) seal of approval. The IASC is an independent regulatory body which monitors the quantity of Aloe Vera in the products. If their Seal of Approval actually appears on the container of the product and is not just an advertising claim, then the product is a genuine Aloe Vera one. The International Aloe Science Council is a non-profit trade organisation for the Aloe Vera Industry world-wide.
When choosing your Aloe Vera product, ensure that only cold processed inner leaf Aloe Vera is used (not reconstituted). As a general rule, a product that includes “Aloe Vera extract” or “reconstituted Aloe Vera” is likely to be less potent than a pure – more than 98% - Aloe Vera product.
Another important measure of quality is the product manufacture’s own guarantee, which ideally should be nothing less than an unconditional 60 day money back guarantee.
Aloe Vera is now available in a wider range of products that can be used for horses, and investigations by veterinary professionals have shown that Aloe Vera is effective in the treatment of many skin problems, joint problems and internal disorders in equines.
Always choose products that have not been tested on animals. Aloe Vera given to horses as a dietary supplement can significantly enhance their stamina and performance, reducing competitive stress and post-event fatigue.
