Why Forever Living Products (FLP)?

orever Living starts with pure, fresh, potent Aloe Vera,
and then adds other ingredients to aid in their use
Fin various formulations (such as lotions, shampoos,
skin care products, etc.). In other words, the number one

Living Aloe Vera products are the most effective you can
buy at any price.

1. GROWING AND HARVESTING
Forever Living
owns its own Aloe
Vera plantations
in the fertile
Rio Grande Valley in Southern Texas, Mexico and
Dominican Republic. Every step of the growing

from the nursery where the “pups” are nurtured, to
the meticulously cultivated fields of mature Aloe Vera
plants, to the carefully timed hand harvesting.
Forever Living
grows only
Aloe Barbadensis, even though there are more than
300 different species of Aloe Vera. Only mature Aloe
Vera plants providing 100% full gel potency are
used. Modern harvesting techniques are employed
throughout the farm system and no pesticides are
used in any phase of the operation.

in the plant. From the time of harvesting, through
the entire stabilization process, the gel is handled
in a sanitary professional manner. The machinery
and buildings are clean and sanitary, thus assuring a
quality product.
Only the pure Aloe Vera gel is used. The leaf, along
