Aloe Vera Gum/ Organic Elwa (एलोवेरा गोंद) : Aloe Vera Gum (Aloe barbadensis) is a succulent plant that belongs to Liliaceous family. The name Aloe derives from the Arabic word “Aloe” meaning shining bitter substance while “Vera” in Latin means true. There are more than 300 species of the aloe-plant, but the Aloe barbadensis species exhibits the best medicinal properties. It grows mainly in the dry areas of Africa, Asia, Europe, and America. Ideal environment to grow this plant is a tropical climate and low rainfall areas.

Aloe Vera Gum is a cactus plant that belongs to the Liliaceous family. More than 300 species of aloe plants exist, but only 2 species have been studied, which are Aloe barbadensis Miller and Aloe arborescence. Ideal environment to grow this plant is tropical climate and low-rainfall areas.

The Aloe Vera leaf consists of 2 different parts: central mucilaginous part and peripheral bundle sheath cells. The parenchyma tissue makes up the inner portion of the aloe leaves and produces a clear, thin tasteless jelly-like material called Aloe Vera Gum. In recent years, various cosmetic and medical products are made from the mucilaginous tissue present in the center of the Aloe Vera leaf in the form of Aloe Vera gel.

Aloe Vera Gum is intended, like toothpaste, to eliminate disease-causing bacteria in the mouth. The ability of aloe Vera tooth gel to do that successfully has been a point of contention for some dental professionals. The study compared the germ-fighting ability of a gel to two commercially popular toothpastes and revealed that the tooth gel was just as effective – in some cases more effective – as the commercial brands at controlling cavity-causing organisms.
