The skin covers the entire body and reflects the aging process with uncanny accuracy. Aloe Vera has been shown to slow down the aging process through several actions: it is an excellent cleanser, sloughing off old cells and cleaning the pores. It has a detoxifying effect on the skin by removing wastes and toxins, and its vitamins, minerals, and amino acids nourish the skin. Amino acids also stimulate new cell growth.

Studies have shown that Aloe vera’s legendary antiaging properties lie in the plant’s amazing capacity to produce fibroblast cells six to eight times faster than normal cells. These cells manufacture collagen, which keeps skin firm.
