Product description

Certified Organic, Pure, Unfiltered
The Aloe
Ferox used in our juice is 100% Natural and Certified Organic. It comes
from the last wild Aloe variety that grows in the natural and wild
environment of the untamed Cape region in South Africa.
Unlike
most Aloe Vera products, our Aloe Ferox juice never has to be filtered,
concentrated or diluted in anyway and thus retains all the naturally
present active ingredients. Being totally natural, it contains no
pesticides or preservatives.

- Packed in a protective dark blue glass bottle to prevent oxidation
- No Fillers, No Stabilisers, No Preservatives
What Are The Key Differences In Ferox And Vera?
Most
if not all Aloe Vera producers filter or chemically neutralise their
product to remove the 'aloin' content which originates from the leaf of
the plant.
Aloin in small doses can help with skin related
problems but in larger quantities and taken internally can be
responsible for a number of complaints including abdominal pains,
diarrhoea and even haemorrhoids.
The Aloe Vera pulp, (the middle
white part of the plant), is very soft. The aloin from the outer leaves
of the plant penetrates into the white pulp.
As Ferox is physically a much stronger plant the middle of the plant is equally robust and does not allow any aloin to enter.
This
is the reason Ferox does not need to be filtered and retains all the
naturally present active ingredients, such as polysaccharides, many of
which are lost in Vera through filtration.
Chemical
neutralisation is often chosen by Aloe Vera producers as an alternative
to filtration. This is also an inferior option. Neutralisation is an
unnatural process and leaves unwanted residuals in the juice.
Aloe Vera is also commonly dried into a powder concentrate. Again this can be seen as a poorer substitute for fresh juice.
Most
if not all Vera producers add unnatural preservatives to their
products. The most common of these are; Potassium Sorbate, Sodium
Benzoate and Sorbic Acid.
Kiki's Ferox juice contains no
unnatural ingredients. It is preserved with 2% naturally occurring
Acerola Cherry, (natural vitamin C.)
Many Vera Juices on the
market today are generally packed in white plastic bottles. These types
of bottles do not protect the juice sufficiently. Plastic bottles also
contain residues such as Bethanol A.
Our Aloe Ferox is packed in a dark blue glass bottle. This avoids such residues and any oxidation effects that may occur.
Additional properties in Ferox unavailable in Vera
The
high count of Polysaccharides in Ferox means it is possible to
effectively eliminate heavy metals from the body by drinking 150ml of
the juice for 60 days. This is quicker and safer for the body than most
other alternative methods.
Ferox also contains a high number of
low-molecular polysaccharides, which have a pre biotic effect on the
bowel flora. By aiding nutrition they bring about an increase of useful
bacteria within the bowel.
Polysaccharides support and maintain the immune and digestive system.
