Processes for producing aloe extracts including the separation of the leaves of the aloe plant into distinct portions. In particular, a first process is described for producing an aloe extract which is substantially free of anthraquinone-rich yellow sap and a second process is described for extracting the active chemical substance in the aloe plant. The active chemical substance in the aloe plant is extracted from aloe leaves and its characteristic properties are described.

Process for making an aloe vera beverage containing a stabilized ordered linear polymer of from about 2 to about 50,000 substituted mannose monomers, wherein said mannose monomers comprise at least 80% of said polymer, comprising: (a) washing an aloe leaf in a bacteriacidal solution to remove substa

Process for making an aloe vera beverage containing a stabilized ordered linear polymer of from about 2 to about 50,000 substituted mannose monomers, wherein said mannose monomers comprise at least 80% of said polymer, comprising: (a) washing an aloe leaf in a bacteriacidal solution to remove substantially all surface dirt and bacteria; (b) removing at least a first end portion from said washed leaf; (c) draining the anthraquinone-rich sap from said cut and washed leaf; (d) removing rind and any remaining anthraquinone-rich sap from said leaf to produce a substantially anthraquinone-free aloe gel fillet; (e) grinding said substantially anthraquinone-free aloe gel fillet; (f) adding to said aloe juice having solubilized matter each of (1) one or more food preservatives; (2) citric acid; and (3) vitamin E, to form a modified aloe vera juice; and (g) homogenizing said modified aloe vera juice to make a beverage containing a substantially anthraquinone-free aloe gel juice having solubilized matter.
