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 →

Desert Harvest Super-Strength Aloe Vera Capsules (SSAV) have been shown in studies to effectively reduce up to 92% of bladder pain, urinary frequency, urgency and urethral burning that are a part of many pelvic pain and bladder disorders, such as Interstitial Cystitis (IC)/Bladder Pain Syndrome (BPS) – sometimes referred to as non-bacterial prostatitis in men and chronic pelvic pain in women. Our Aloe Vera preserves glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) which adhere to the bladder mucosal lining, preventing potentially irritating solutes in the urine from reaching the bladder wall with its high concentration of nutrients.
Because Aloe Vera is antibacterial, antifungal, antibiotic, analgesic, anesthetic, antiseptic, antiviral, antimicrobial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory, and because there are no harsh side effects, it adds many more elements to the pain relief and improvement in day to day life for the IC/BPS sufferer.
Desert Harvest organic Aloe Vera is grown in nutrient-dense volcanic soil, and processed within 20 minutes to ensure its delicate 75 active nutrients remain intact. We use no pesticides, herbicides, or fillers. Our patented process removes all water, insoluble fiber, and anthraquinones (laxatives including aloin) and retains the pure, potent nutrients; amino acids, mucopolysaccharides, vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, and enzymes. Aloe Vera’s mucopolysaccharides, also known as glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), are the components studied and indicated to support bladder health. Click here for information on Desert Harvest Clinical Research Studies with Interstitial Cystitis (IC) – Bladder Pain Syndrome (BPS) (sometimes referred to as nonbacterial prostatitis in men and chronic pelvic pain in women).
Aloe Vera also contains acemannan, a polysaccharide chain of d-mannose molecules. Preliminary clinical trials in Europe show that d-mannose may support urinary tract health. Research suggests d-mannose stops certain bacteria from sticking to the bladder walls. Scientists believe that the bacteria stick to the sugar instead. This helps the bacteria leave the body through urine. Fewer bacteria in the bladder support urinary tract health.
A 90-capsule bottle of Super-Strength Aloe Vera capsules is a 15-day supply at the recommended dose of 6 capsules daily (3600 mg daily). While some people see immediate results, it may take up to 3 months or more to experience the full benefits.

If you have a sensitive stomach or your bladder symptoms are made worse with foods, we recommend taking a Calcium supplement and your dose of our Super-Strength Aloe Vera Capsules. Try our Calcium/Vitamin D3 Supplement or our Calcium Glycerophosphate. Lab tests show they work better than any other form of calcium in raising the pH of foods to avoid stomach discomfort.

Let customers speak for us
from 2373 reviewsIt’s gentle, not drying and not irritating.
SSAV was recommended by my doctor for relief of IC symptoms. I have been taking SSAV for almost two years.
These aloe vera capsules have really helped with my interstitial cystitis. I have been taking them for about 2 months now and I'm starting to see positive results. The bladder pain has lessened considerably and I even ate spaghetti sauce without bladder pain.
This product has been a big help for my intercystal cystitis
These magical capsules keep my bladder stable with my IC! They really keep my bladder pain free and if I’ve overdone the spicy foods etc I take a few extra capsules!
Love them!

✓ Verified BuyerA 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.
