We want to illustrate the reason for the statement Aloe vera is good, but Aloe Arborescens is better!
Aloe Arborescens or Aloe Vera?
We start from a fixed point; and that is that the Aloe plant is unique in nature, due to the quantity of active ingredients contained in it, now one of the most important issues is:
“Which Aloe do I choose, given that there are over 250 varieties?”
The best known and above all those with the greatest health and medicinal properties are Aloe Vera (barbadensis) and Aloe Arborescens, therefore the choice is essentially reduced to these two varieties. One might think that the features are the same and instead have a different concentration of active ingredients .
Before analyzing the active ingredients, let’s see immediately the differences between Aloe vera plants and Aloe Arborescens plants and how to recognize them . The simplest method is certainly the inflorescence, in fact the Aloe Vera has yellow flowers , while the Aloe Arborescens has red flowers .[/vc_column_text][ultimate_spacer height=”30″ height_on_tabs=”20″ height_on_tabs_portrait=”20″ height_on_mob_landscape=”10″ height_on_mob=”10″][vc_single_image image=”6138″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]But since the flower is present only once a year for a short period, let’s focus on the characteristics and conformation of the plant.[/vc_column_text][ultimate_spacer height=”30″ height_on_tabs=”20″ height_on_tabs_portrait=”20″ height_on_mob_landscape=”10″ height_on_mob=”10″][vc_column_text]Aloe Vera it grows and develops in the shape of a clump, without having a central trunk, it has fleshy and succulent leaves of a mottled green color, with delicate edges sometimes mottled with pink during the cold periods. The plant reaches its maturity after four years and can have leaves with a length between 60 and 90 cm with a width of 8 cm. Each leaf can weigh from 1 to 2 kg.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”6140″ img_size=”200×400″][ultimate_spacer height=”30″ height_on_tabs=”20″ height_on_tabs_portrait=”20″ height_on_mob_landscape=”10″ height_on_mob=”10″][vc_column_text] Aloe Arborescens instead it develops on a central woody trunk with alternate leaf growth. The plant is presented in the form of a chaotic bush, full of stems, in which no starting root can be distinguished as in the case of Aloe Vera. The leaves are filiform, have a length between 50 and 60 cm and weigh from 10 to 100 grams each.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”6147″ img_size=”full”][ultimate_spacer height=”30″ height_on_tabs=”20″ height_on_tabs_portrait=”20″ height_on_mob_landscape=”10″ height_on_mob=”10″][ultimate_spacer height=”30″ height_on_tabs=”20″ height_on_tabs_portrait=”20″ height_on_mob_landscape=”10″ height_on_mob=”10″][vc_column_text]So in conclusion we can say that it is very easy to notice the differences between Aloe Vera and Aloe Arborescens both for the conformation of the plant and for the size of the leaves. Let’s now analyze which is the variety that has the most active ingredients and therefore the one that is preferable to use.
Aloe Arborescens undoubtedly has a much higher concentration of active ingredients than Aloe Vera and therefore a greater therapeutic activity.
This feature has been demonstrated by numerous studies. As an example, we report below a table extracted from the report of the Raphael Foundation which compares the content of 7 amino acids present in the two plants:[/vc_column_text][pro_table bordered=”1″ condensed=”1″ responsive=”1″]
Aloe Vera | Aloe Arborescens | |
---|---|---|
Triptofano (ppm) | 30 | 57 |
Fenilalanina (ppm) | 14 | 17 |
Serina (ppm) | 20 | 21 |
Istidina (ppm) | 14 | 21 |
Prolina (ppm) | 17 | 113 |
Tirosina (ppm) | 14 | 20 |
Arginina (ppm) | 14 | 19 |
[/pro_table][ultimate_spacer height=”30″ height_on_tabs=”20″ height_on_tabs_portrait=”20″ height_on_mob_landscape=”10″ height_on_mob=”10″][vc_column_text]This table covers only 7 of the hundreds of active compounds present, all in considerably higher quantities in Aloe Arborescens.
“Furthermore, from analyzes carried out by our company, the differences in amino acids were even more evident to the advantage of Aloe Arborescens, but these parameters vary greatly depending on the place of cultivation of the plants examined.”
You will surely have noticed that almost all of the products on the market contain Aloe Vera and not Aloe Arborescens. Faced with this evidence, a question arises:
Since it is much more effective, why don’t everyone use Aloe Arborescens?
The answer is very simple: The lower yield in terms of production makes its cost much higher. Let’s go back for a moment to the subject of morphology that we mentioned earlier. The high yield of the leaves and the easy transformation of the pulp into a drinking gel, has made Aloe Vera the most used and known in the world. On the contrary, Aloe Arborescens, given the enormous difficulty of processing, which can only be done manually, has been relegated to the background ALTHOUGH IT IS GREATLY SUPERIOR IN TERMS OF ACTIVE PRINCIPLES.
Having focused on excellence, we have decided to use only ORGANIC ALOE ARBORESCENS from Italian crops.
The various researches and the recent international bibliography have shown that Aloe Arborescens is much more effective than Aloe Vera if you aim at a therapeutic action of the product.[/vc_column_text][ultimate_spacer height=”30″ height_on_tabs=”20″ height_on_tabs_portrait=”20″ height_on_mob_landscape=”10″ height_on_mob=”10″][ultimate_spacer height=”30″ height_on_tabs=”20″ height_on_tabs_portrait=”20″ height_on_mob_landscape=”10″ height_on_mob=”10″][ultimate_spacer height=”30″ height_on_tabs=”20″ height_on_tabs_portrait=”20″ height_on_mob_landscape=”10″ height_on_mob=”10″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
