Aloe Vera also known as Aloe barbadensis (Miller).

The EU issued a ban on the use of aloe extracts in food products and supplements due to the presence of hydroxyanthracene derivatives (HAD’s).

In 2020, the European Commission released a draft regulation suggesting that the use of certain aloe extracts, containing hydroxyanthracene derivatives as well as Aloe-emodin, Emodin and Danthron, should be prohibited from being used in food products and herbal supplements in the EU.

The regulation was put into action after the EFSA found themselves unable to determine a daily intake amount that would not give rise to potential health concerns. The ban will impact anyone on the EU market that use these ingredients for food products and supplements.

There are several Aloe Vera ingredients in Access now that comply with the new EU regulations, they are marked "EU approved".
