About Us

Welcome to Desert Harvest

Trusted by customers & healthcare providers since 1993!


Desert Harvest has spent over two decades focusing on the overall health needs of those underserved and living with under-recognized conditions worldwide. Desert Harvest was the first to discover the symptom-relieving benefits of Super-Strength Freeze-Dried Aloe Vera, born out of a need to help a family member suffering from a bladder condition. Today, Desert Harvest meets the relief needs for people suffering from urological, women’s health issues, sexual health issues, radiation oncology therapy, and more, with the highest quality, scientifically studied, all-natural supplements, and skincare. All Desert Harvest Aloe Vera products are formulated specifically to maximize the benefits of the entire Aloe leaf to capture the plant’s fullest potential and all products are paraben-free, non-GMO, have no fillers, artificial ingredients, or artificial preservatives.
