Why Desert Harvest Aloe Vera for Interstitial Cystitis?

Desert Harvest has spent over 25 years supporting the Interstitial Cystitis / Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS) community with the highest quality Super-Strength Aloe Vera. They have done the research and surveyed over 20,000 IC/BPS customers to know what works for them, in what dosage and how long it takes to feel the positive effects.

Based on the recommended IC/BPS dosage of 3600 mg per day, many brands are not affordable in the long run, although they initially seem so. Some brands have so little Aloe Vera per capsule that it would require you to take up to 72 capsules per day.


Aloe vera is rich in glycosaminoglycans, which seem to help soothe the bladder in patients with the painful bladder condition, interstitial cystitis.

Highest Concentration of Aloe

Desert Harvest Super-Strength Aloe Vera capsules have the highest concentration of 100% organic freeze-dried Aloe per capsule with no fillers, anthraquinones, or insoluble fiber, so you only need 6 per day. Desert Harvest is the most affordable and effective Aloe for IC/BPS.  

Scientifically Studied

Desert Harvest is committed to bringing the highest quality, scientifically studied, all-natural supplements and skincare to individuals all over the world. Quality, efficacy, accessibility, and affordability are at the core of their products. Science, education, support, and compassion are at the forefront of their customer care.

Desert Harvest Super-Strength Aloe Vera Capsules have been shown in studies to effectively reduce up to 92% of bladder pain, urinary frequency, urgency and urethral burning that are a part of many pelvic pain and bladder disorders, such as Interstitial Cystitis (IC) - Bladder Pain Syndrome (BPS); sometimes referred to as non-bacterial prostatitis in men and chronic pelvic pain in women.

All Desert Harvest Aloe Vera products are formulated specifically to maximize the benefits of the entire Aloe leaf -- both Inner Filet & Outer Leaf -- by capturing the plant's fullest potential. Since their products are developed for the IC/BPS community, their products will not aggravate the bladder, digestive, or urinary tract and are safe and effective for everyone.

Benefits of Aloe Vera

The succulent leaf of the Aloe Vera plant is one of nature’s most wonderful gifts. Recognized throughout history for a multitude of uses, the plant’s fullest capacities are only just now being widely developed for today’s health-conscious consumer.

Research shows that Aloe Vera has properties that are antibacterial, antifungal, antibiotic, analgesic, anesthetic, antiseptic, anti-viral, anti-microbial, and anti-inflammatory.

Aloe has a great penetrating ability and is easily absorbed through all layers of tissue. This makes it effective for collagen production, tissue regeneration, and wound healing including minor skin irritations, acne, burns, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, dandruff, lichens sclerosis, vulvodynia, and other conditions.

Desert Harvest Super-Strength Aloe Vera has been shown in clinical trials to effectively reduce bladder pain, urinary frequency, urgency, and urethral burning that are a part of many bladder disorders, but especially Interstitial Cystitis / Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS) and non-bacterial prostatitis.

Aloe Vera contains acemannan, which is a polysaccharide chain of mannose molecules. Preliminary clinical trials in Europe show that mannose may also help treat or prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Research suggests mannose stops certain bacteria from sticking to the bladder walls. Scientists believe that the bacteria stick to the sugar instead. This helps the bacteria leave the body through urine. Fewer bacteria in the bladder lowers the risk of urinary tract infection.

Aloe Vera Effectivness

The Aloe Vera plant is effective in these ways:

  • Anesthetic: barbalois, isobarbaloin, bradykinase, lupeol, salicylic acid, and magnesium.

  • Anti-inflammatory: polysaccharides and fatty acids: acemannan, campesterol, b-sitosterol, and other plant sterols.

  • Antiseptic: lupeol, salicylic acid, urea nitrogen, cinnamic acid, phenols, and sulfur. Antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral benefits.

  • Cell Growth Stimulator: Aloe stimulates the birth of new, healthy tissue up to eight times the normal rate, as proven by independent research. Breaks down and digests dead tissue, including pus (acne), enhances normal cell proliferation, hastens to heal, is an antipruritic (stops itching), and moisturizes tissues.

  • Cleansing Antioxidant: Aloe detoxifies and normalizes your metabolism.

  • Deep Penetrating: Aloe has the ability to reach the deepest tissue layers, as deep as seven layers. Most lotions, liquid substances, and water will penetrate only two layers of skin. Dilates capillaries and increases circulation.

  • Rich in Vitamins & Minerals: B1, B2, C, E, magnesium, calcium, zinc, and many other nutrients, which are the building blocks for healthy cells and bodily functions.
