Absorption/Bio-Availability

Aloe polysaccharides are considered to the main biologically active component of aloe. The International Aloe Science Council sponsored a study using a generic aloe juice to evaluate the absorption ability of Aloe verses water when taking Vitamin C, a water soluble supplement. In that study it showed increase absorption of over 2 times in subjects taking Vitamin C than those using water.

Our recent clinical study which met the Gold Standard of our own brand formulations with Aloesorb™ showed over a 20 fold increase in absorption of Vitamin C in the first hour versus those using water. This shows that Lily products with Aloesorb™ are superior as a supplement companion for absorption.

It also confirmed that the higher molecular weights of polysaccharides provide the most benefit for absorption. University of Mississippi Study also showed that Lily was the only brand sold in Health Food stores to have the highest concentration of polysaccharides as well as the highest range and molecular weight. By adding Aloesorb™ we have enhanced the bioavailability of vitamins, minerals, and herbs of our products.
