Essential Therapeutics Amigel (Vegetable Gelling Agent) Gel 500g

Description

Amigel is our unique gelling agent derived from the yeast Sclerotium rolfsii grown on a glucose sugar culture. Known as a polysaccharide gel (meaning “many sugars”), Amigel has the highest capacity to absorb water than any other vegetable gelling agent and will accept a large amount of additional ingredients.

We offer our prepared Amigel at a 2% concentration in distilled water, with the addition of an Ecocert-approved preservative system for natural & organic products - gluconolactone & sodium benzoate. With prepared Amigel, you can add up to an additional 25% of oily ingredients to create a stable, cream-like preparation. This means that you can fully customise the preparation you desire. Hence, you can add any essential oil or blend, pure vegetable oil, Essential Fatty Acid oils, Herbal Infused Oils, vitamins and so on.

Amigel is totally non-toxic, non-allergenic and as gelled water, very hydrating for the skin. And since we have been asked, Amigel is perfectly fine for use by those intolerant to yeast in foods.
