Aloe Ferox and Aloe Vera are often mistakenly considered as the same plant, but it isn’t! Although the two share many similarities, the chemical analysis of the Aloe Ferox shows that it is much better in terms of its beneficial elements.

Aloe ferox can grow to 3 in height, and can be found on rocky hills, in grassy fynbos and on the edges of the Karoo. The plants may differ physically from area to area due to local conditions. Its leaves are thick and fleshy, and have reddish-brown spines on the margins with smaller spines on the upper and lower surfaces. Its flowers are orange or red, and stand between 0.6 and 1.2m above the leaves.

The calcium, magnesium, potassium and zinc in Aloe Ferox is much higher than in Aloe Vera, which is why traditional use of the Aloe Ferox includes , the improvement of the Immune System, Gout, Arthritis, Fibrosis, Diabetes, Skin Ailments (Acne), PMT, Migraines, Insomnia, Gall and Kidney Stones, lack of energy, Throat Infections, Heart Burn, Colic, Stomach Ulcers, Bladder Infections, Haemorrhoids, shingles, constipation, Osteoporosis, Indigestion, Tonsillitis, Arthritis, Eczema, Conjunctivitis, Hypertension, Stress and many more. Hoewever, Aloe Ferox has lower sodium levels than Aloe Vera, which is why Aloe Ferox is considered beneficial for high blood pressure!

Detoxing is a great way to rid the body of any harmful substances and Aloe has an amazing detoxifying effect.

Jigsimur is a 100% natural aloe product with no preservatives, no sugar and no alcohol.

Start your detoxification with a small dose of Jigsimur. We recommend starting with a dose of between 10-25 ml. once or twice a day, starting slow will allow you to determine what your optimum dose is.

Expect frequent trips to the bathroom. The colon is one of the main collectors of toxins in the body, and aloe has a laxative effect that loosens the toxin build-up and flushes it though your system.

You can detox for as long as you want, as long as you maintain a healthy diet and remember to drink lots of water. We do not recommend depriving yourself of food as part of a detox but we encourage healthier choices.

Things to avoid during detox:
  • Alcohol
  • Cigarettes
  • Sugar
  • Coffee
  • Full fat dairy products
  • Wheat (try Rye instead)
