Acemannan | ACEMANNAN is a polysaccharide (long sugar chain). ACEMANNAN is the main active ingredient responsible for the unique effect of Aloe Vera. Harvest and processing are very important to the content of ACEMANNAN in the finished product. In AVIVIR Aloe Vera we only use Activ Aloe® which is a tried and tested raw ingredient and the one that guarantees that ACEMANNAN constitutes a minimum of 10% of the dry ingredients. We add a high content of this ingredient to our products to ensure that you achieve the best effect. The packaging will always tell you how many % of Aloe Vera the product contains. |
