While most of these conclusions are based on animal models, a recent human clinical study showed that both vitamin C and E bioavailability is increased by as much as 300% when taken with aloe instead of water. No other matrix is known to increase the bioavailability of both water and fat soluble vitamins. http://www.femhealth.com/AloeVera.html Importance of Biological Activity Scientists have determined that the retention of medium to higher weight polysaccharides enhance the biological activity found in Aloe Vera gel. Four specific scientific studies performed in recent years have demonstrated the remarkable health supportive qualities of concentrated Aloe Vera gel consumption. Dr. J.A. Vinson of the University of Scranton, PA, USA, presented his work demonstrating the increased bioavailability of vitamins C and E when taken in combination with Aloe vera. He performed a human clinical test with test subjects that were given doses of vitamin C or E with or without Alo
