Description
Most often taken together to support bladder health, this three supplement Starter Bundle offers one bottle of each to try either one at a time or together for maximum bladder health support.
Super-Strength Aloe Vera (180 capsules) – Desert Harvest Super-Strength Aloe Vera Capsules contain the highest freeze-dried concentration (600 mg per capsule) of organically grown Aloe Vera not found in other brands. 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; with 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.
INGREDIENTS: Each serving (3 capsules) contains 1800 mg of Organic Aloe Vera (Leaf and Inner Gel), 60 mg of calcium carbonate (to raise the pH of the aloe), and trace amounts of silicon dioxide (a naturally occurring earth mineral) as a drying agent.
Quercetin (90 Capsules) is a natural antihistamine, anti-inflammatory and contains antioxidant flavonoids found in fruits & vegetables that support collagen development, balanced immune response and cardiovascular protection. Flavonoids support capillary wall stability and healthy collagen development, balance immune response, and provide cardiovascular protection by reducing the oxidation of LDL cholesterol. Mast cells have been found to be raised in patients suffering from IC. As a result, IC bladders also contain about double as much histamine as a healthy bladder. Histamine plays a role in inflammation. Quercetin has been shown to inhibit the release of histamines and other immune mediators, so it is widely used by allergy sufferers. Antihistamine medications are often prescribed by doctors to treat IC/BPS and nonbacterial prostatitis.
INGREDIENTS: Each serving (2 capsules) contains 500 mg of Quercetin (from the saphora plant), 100 mg of organic aloe vera powder, and 3 mg of silicon dioxide as a drying agent (a naturally occurring earth mineral).
Choose from two forms of Calcium:
Calcium Glycerophosphate (90 Capsules) is essential for healthy bones, heart, nerves, muscles, immune system, and cell growth. It has been shown to remove 95% of acidity in foods. Regulates fluid passage through cell membranes, and affects the regulation of nerve impulses and muscle contractions. It has also been shown to help reduce hypertension by normalizing intracellular calcium.
INGREDIENTS: Each serving (1 capsule) contains 230 mg of calcium glycerophosphate, 40 mg of organic aloe vera powder, and a trace amount of silicon dioxide as a drying agent (a naturally occurring earth mineral)
Calcium / D3 (90 Capsules) is essential for healthy bones, heart, nerves, muscles, immune system, and cell growth. Safe and effective for IC / BPS. Regulates fluid passage through cell membranes, and affects the regulation of nerve impulses and muscle contractions. It has also been shown to help reduce hypertension by normalizing intracellular calcium.
INGREDIENTS: Each serving (2 capsules) contains 500 mg of calcium carbonate (an earth mineral), 200 IU of Vitamin D3, 40 mg of aloe vera powder, and 3 mg of silicon dioxide as a drying agent (a naturally occurring earth mineral)

I can’t say enough about this wonderful product… Desert Harvest Aloe Vera gave me life back almost 15 years ago and I would not ever want to be without it. With my daily routine of Desert Harvest’s Aloe Vera, Quercetin (and Calcium Carbonate with Vit. D3, as needed), I can eat more foods and almost never have a flare up. I actually buy all of my supplements from Desert Harvest because I know they are safe for people with IC, AND all of them have Aloe Vera in them. I will be forever grateful!

Your products have changed my life virtually overnight and I wanted to share my story with you.
A little over 3 years ago I thought I had a urinary tract infection. Long story short, I ended up being diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis and I was just 37. It has been a rough 3 years for me. I love spicy foods and I really love coffee and I pretty much had to give it all up. I spent lots of time researching products that could maybe help me. Eventually, I found Desert Harvest. I first ordered the Aloe Vera a few months ago but I didn’t realize there was a regimen for people with IC. So, I did one in the morning and one at night and it didn’t really help. (Here comes the really exciting part…)
I was cleaning my desk area a little over a week ago and I found your catalog and was flipping through it. That’s when I saw your recommended dosing for IC. I quickly ordered a new bottle so I could give it another try. Before it arrived, I took an over the counter UTI test. It showed me being dark purple which indicates white blood cells/inflammation, but negative for bacterial (that’s generally how it works for IC). I immediately started the Aloe Vera Capsules 3 in the morning and 3 in the evening. I could definitely tell a huge difference. Then, I received THE EMAIL from you about bladder awareness month and an IC Starter Kit. I was like, “what is that – there’s more?” I read about the Quercetin and it said something about how people with IC have twice as much histamine in their bladders. That’s when everything came full circle for me. When I was 18, I was diagnosed with chronic hives and took Claritin (an anti-histamine) until about 3 years ago. My hives had stopped and I thought why am I taking this? I think stopping the Claritin must have really impacted my bladder. I received the Quercetin last Saturday and took one dose that afternoon. I could not believe the results. I mean it was like I had my bladder back. In fact, I took another UTI test that night and can you believe that the Leukocytes came back negative?! Totally clear! I had only been taking the Aloe Vera Capsules for a few days and only 1 dosage of the Quercetin.
It has now been a week and my bladder feels completely back to normal. I can’t even tell you how incredibly thankful I am for your company and your products! What you are doing is life changing for people like me. I wish I could hug all of you!
