     Did you ever wonder if there was a difference in quality in all of the dairy products and eggs suddenly appearing with an organic label? You can go to www.cornucopia.org and you will find scorecards for a wide variety of dairy and egg products. Some of the largest nationwide organic egg products, for example, are provided by industrial farms that house hundreds of thousands of birds without meaningful outdoor access. Visit the website or the following links for rankings on the products you use.

Fish Oils and Quality

     The value of fish oils as supplements depends upon the quality of the oil. Repeated studies have shown that fish oils which are contaminated with pollutants contribute to fatty infiltration of the liver and insulin resistance. By contrast, pure fish oils improve insulin resistance and fatty infiltration of the liver.

     NeoLife tests Salmon Oil Plus for over 200 pollutants with a standard of zero. NeoLife Salmon Oil is manufactured using molecular differentiation technology which allows for removal of pollutants, oxidized fats, and fishy taste. NeoLife products have quality you can count on.

Rats fed polluted salmon oil developed insulin resistance, fatty liver, and obesity.

Supplementation with clean NeoLife Salmon Oil Plus alleviated obesity induced insulin resistance and fatty infiltration of the liver.

Popular Herbal Supplements

     New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman has sent letters to GNC, Target, Wal-Mart, and Walgreen Co notifying them that many of the herbal products they were selling either did not contain ingredients listed on the label or contained ingredients not listed on the label.
     Only 21% of the DNA tests verified the information on the labels of products like echinacea, ginseng, St. John's wort, garlic, ginkgo biloba and saw palmetto.
     A further problem was contamination of the products with other materials.
     NeoLife tests all raw materials before manufacturing products and then retests the final product to verify that what is on the label of products is actually contained in the products. Quality control is a major NeoLife difference.

NeoLife Protein Quality

     NeoLife protein is manufactured using an exclusive Protogard Process. The process involves selecting the highest quality protein sources. A low-temperature process involving a blend of protein-digesting enzymes is then used to protect the amino acids an improve digestibility.
     The World Health Organization has adopted a standard for protein quality called PDCAAS (Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score). A perfect score is 1.0. All NeoLife proteins meet or exceed this score. The NeoLife Shake, the most recently developed protein product has a PDCAAS of 1.73. Super Ease is 1.49. The Glycemic Response Control protein has a PDCAAS of 1.31.
     NeoLife Protein products also contain all 22 amino acids important for complete protein nutrition.
