I LOVE this stuff. I bought it after I had several unfortunate bouts with kidney stones. I read somewhere that aloe vera juice could help with kidney stones, and I was desperate to try anything that might work at the time! If you told me to stand on my head and sing out loud to end the kidney stones I would have! I say this because I am not one to easily believe in homeopathic treatments or non-FDA approved supplements.
I can't speak to the scientific efficacy of the product or if it truly treats/cures kidney stones. What I can say is that anecdotally, I have not had a single kidney stone since beginning to drink this stuff. That could be coincidence, but I'll take it!
I also had occasional trouble with GERD and once had a stomach Ulcer. When I drink this stuff I seem to have no issues with acid reflux at all. It's not the kind of thing you can take after you feel the reflux to treat it...but if you start a regiment of this every day, it will keep the acid from ever being a problem. In other words, it's preventative and I wouldn't buy it expecting anything else.
Finally, I read a review that claimed this aloe vera juice was nothing more than water and I would like to address this. I can understand why someone might think that, because it tastes just like water. There is no weird after taste or no bitter taste whatsoever. So I can understand why someone might wonder if it is simply water...however, I can verify that it is definitely not water. It has a lower freezing point than water. I like to put the bottle of aloe vera in the very back of my fridge were it is coldest. If I put water bottles in this spot of my fridge, the water begins to freeze, however this aloe vera never freezes but gets nice and cold, just the way I like it :
