Aloe Vera |

Natures gift to animals. The complementary medicinal properties of Aloe Vera have been known for some 4,000 years with one of the first references being on an Egyptian temple carving from around 2000 BC. The first mention of Aloe Vera's pharmaceutical properties were recorded on Sumerian clay tablets in 1750 BC. It was around this time in 2100 BC that the art of veterinary science was first mentioned in the laws of Hammurabi.

However, it was not until the 1800s that Aloe Vera first started to be used commonly in the UK for treating the diseases of animals.

Aloe Vera can be used by the owner of an animal as a complimentary medicinal herb to help a previously diagnosed condition or as a first aid treatment whilst waiting to see a veterinary surgeon. In practice the Aloe Vera must be filleted and cold stabilised so that it contains mainly parenchymatous gel from the inner leaf of the plant.

Drinking gels |

Aloe Vera gel or Berry Nectar (1 litre)
Aloe Vera drinks are liquid dietary foods consisting of the stabilised inner leaf gel of the plant which contains over 75 known nutrients, in a natural balance that helps to maintain all the signs of a healthy animal. Suitable for all, the liquids are readily absorbed into normal feeds, although some animals prefer them in their water. The drinks maintain a healthy appetite, suppleness of joints and energy levels. Aloe Vera also has a soothing effect. (Berry Nectar contains cranberry and apple.)
