Plant gel used to soothe digestion and skin

We rank Aloe Vera by price per gram of active ingredient - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.

What it is

Aloe Vera is a gel extracted from the thick leaves of a succulent plant. It is primarily used as a natural ingredient to soothe the skin and support the digestive system.

Why it's used

How it's made

The process begins by harvesting the thick leaves of the aloe plant. The outer green skin is removed to reach the clear inner gel, which is then crushed and filtered. This gel is then stabilised to prevent it from spoiling and is processed into a liquid drink, a concentrated powder, or a gel for capsules.

What it typically costs

This ingredient is generally mid-range in price. This is because the plants require specific climates to grow and the process of extracting and stabilising the fresh gel is more involved than producing simple synthetic supplements.
