What SSAV Does
Desert Harvest SSAV (Super-Strength Aloe Vera) Capsules support bladder comfort, reduce urinary frequency and urgency, and promote overall pelvic health. For more than 30 years, they have been trusted by hundreds of thousands of active IC/BPS patients worldwide.
Why it matters
SSAV is the only patented aloe vera formulation clinically studied in double-blind, placebo-controlled trials and specifically named in the international IC/BPS guidelines. In clinical research, over 90% of patients experienced a significant decrease in symptoms after 3 months. Unlike generic aloe, SSAV is uniquely purified to remove irritants while preserving mucopolysaccharides, amino acids, and antioxidants that help support and protect the bladder lining.
Doctor recommended & evidence-based
Backed by double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials and ongoing FDA Drug Trials at Wake Forest University (USA), Desert Harvest SSAV has earned the trust of urologists and pelvic health specialists worldwide for over three decades. Clean, vegan, and filler-free, it’s crafted with sensitive systems in mind. See the published clinical studies →

Featured in International Guidelines
✓ Mentioned by name in official IC/BPS medical guidelines, including IPBF 2024.
Clinically Studied & Medically Recognized
Desert Harvest Super-Strength Aloe Vera (SSAV) Capsules are the only patented aloe vera formulation specifically referenced in international IC/BPS treatment guidelines.
Why Choose Desert Harvest SSAV Aloe Vera?
Our capsules contain the highest freeze-dried concentration of organically grown Aloe Vera, cultivated without pesticides, herbicides, or fillers. Through our patented process, all water, insoluble fiber, and anthraquinones (including aloin) are removed—leaving only the pure, potent nutrients:
- Amino acids
- Mucopolysaccharides (glycosaminoglycans or GAGs)
- Vitamins & antioxidants
- Minerals & enzymes
Mucopolysaccharides are studied for their role in supporting bladder health. Aloe vera also contains acemannan, a polysaccharide made up of d-mannose molecules. Clinical research suggests d-mannose may support urinary tract health by helping prevent certain bacteria from adhering to bladder walls, allowing them to be flushed out naturally.
Dosage & Supply
- Bottle size: 180 capsules
- Serving size: 6 capsules daily (3,600 mg)
- Supply: 30 days
While some individuals notice benefits quickly, it may take 3 months or more of consistent use to experience the full effects. For best results, take six capsules daily for at least three months.
If you experience mild indigestion with aloe vera, try taking the capsules with food and/or with Calcium and Vitamin D3, which may help reduce stomach discomfort.
Clean & Pure Formula
- Vegan and gluten-free
- No anthraquinones, fillers, or artificial ingredients
- Patent pending
Ingredients (per 3-capsule serving):
- 1,800 mg Organic Aloe Vera (Leaf & Inner Gel)
- 60 mg Calcium Carbonate (to balance aloe pH)
- Trace Silicon Dioxide (natural drying agent)
Storage Note on Moisture Absorption
Our SSAV aloe vera powder is naturally hydrophilic (water-loving) and may harden or form clumps when exposed to air. This is completely normal and does not affect the potency or effectiveness of the product.

Let customers speak for us
from 1624 reviewsDesertHarvest is the only brand of supplements I take. They never cause any sensitivity.
I am wondering if the capsules leave a strange taste in my mouth.
I have interstitial cystitis and I was so uncomfortable before the start of my period for the past several months. I started taking this a few weeks ago and as long as I stay well hydrated in addition to taking the capsules I am not having as many symptoms! I had been taking so much Advil to help with the pain for my last several cycles and I haven't had to take any this time around! I am so impressed and grateful.
Great product it works .
Shopping with Desert Harvest is great. Love being able to talk with alive agent. Please never go to chat or AI prompted selling. My experience with those is a nightmare.
Thanks much for live support!
My Aloe Vera gelcaps have made my IC something that is still sometimes difficult to live with a lot more tolerance.
The ordering process is great bc I can talk with a live agent. Having to order thru AI or a chat system I despise. So please do not go in that direction.
Hmmm. I think it is working! Since I have been avoiding trigger foods and spices, not 100% sure this is why I am feeling on the mend, but I will take it!!! The severe spasming has eased, and for that I am grateful. I will keep taking the SSAV and order more in the furture.
They have definitely helped me with my ic issues. I would be in worse shape.
Love the products, found the site on a Reddit board and been shopping regularly here ever since.
Love the gele! It's become a staple in my beauty routine :)

A Quick Note on Moisture
Sometimes your capsules may harden or clump — don't worry! Our aloe vera powder is highly hydrophilic, meaning it naturally absorbs moisture from the air.
This doesn't impact potency, quality, or results.
* This image shows how Desert Harvest's freeze-dried SSAV powder can vary in texture—from fine powder to clumps—due to its hydrophilic (water-loving) nature. When exposed to moisture in the air, the powder may harden or clump, but rest assured, this is completely normal and does not affect the potency or efficacy of the product.
