DOUBLE PACK - Dr. Schneider Skin Care Plus with Argan Oil

Several species of plant are classified together under the "aloe" genus name. Although there are something like 400 sub-species, one particular species stands apart and has been well-known for centuries for its imputed qualities. Scientists have now been able to identify and verify more than 200 compounds in the plant. We're talking about aloe vera barbadensis miller, named after the English botanist M. Miller.

Scientists fail to agree on the exact origin of the aloe vera plant. Somewhere in Africa – between South Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. In the meantime, aloe vera is cultivated worldwide in subtropical regions.

For Dr. Schneider Aloe Vera, we decided on a special aloe vera extract from the original homeland of the plant and have found a top-class manufacturer in South Africa who produces aloe vera products of the highest quality thanks to sustainable agriculture and organic cultivation.

For Dr. Schneider Aloe Vera, only the so-called fillets of the leaves are used: the gel bodies. After harvesting the outer leaves, these are carefully peeled. The leaf marrow is processed gently to produce an extract that is 200 times concentrated. it is very important that only the inside of the leaves of the aloe vera plant is used in the processing, since certain plant substances such as anthranoides (e.g. aloin) are contained in the outer layers of the leaves that may not exceed certain legally prescribed levels due to their side-effects. Cheap dietary supplements or imports from third-party countries often use the whole leaves for cost reasons.

That's right. For the production of the Dr. Schneider range, we always try in the development of the product to use the best technologies for the products and to select the optimal dosage format, which may differ depending on the nutrients contained, formula, therapeutic area and target group. For Dr. Schneider Aloe Vera, we decided on producing an instant drink tablet in a so-called fluidised bed spray granulation process. This is a very specialised process and sets the product apart from cheaper effervescent tablets. The advantage is rapid dissolution in a glass of water as well as, in particular, the gentle and protective processing of the active ingredients such as the delicate vitamins and the aloe vera extract. The process also achieves a special aroma profile.

Dissolved in 200 ml of water, Dr. Schneider Aloe Vera contains around 39kJ/9 kcal. In comparison, a 200 ml glass of apple juice contains around 386 KJ/92 kcal.

No, we have purposefully avoided the addition of artificial colourings. The lovely pink colour in Dr. Schneider Aloe Vera comes from the addition of the natural food colouring beet red. Beet red is a naturally-occurring red food colour that is extracted from beetroot.

Since, as a dietary supplement, Dr. Schneider Aloe Vera is a foodstuff in the broadest sense, you can always combine it with other foodstuffs or other dietary supplements.

Caring from your skin from the inside as well as the outside is always the best solution. There are a lot of reasons why you should combine your aloe vera day cream with Dr. Schneider Aloe Vera. With topical care products, you will only reach the outer layers of the skin whereas you can provide your entire body with nutrients when you take them orally. There are numerous studies involving the nutrients contained in Dr. Schneider Aloe Vera and their positive results – vitamin A for example plays an important role in the maintenance of healthy skin. In addition, biotin also supports the maintenance of healthy hair. Through the additional provision of moisture to the whole organism, our instant beauty drink also provides hydration for our skin.
