Is the concept of nutritional immunology and eLead products supported by scientific evidence and well researched?

eLead Global Limited is a company built upon solid foundation of education and research. The products are made by GMP-certified food manufacturers with 30 years of experience & expertise. The company’s various publications i.e. magazines and other literature contains vast knowledge on nutritional immunology, including research papers, product and ingredients descriptions. Dr. Jau-Fei Chen, a PhD in Immunology, the founder of E.Excel and co-founder of eLead Global is an accomplished scientist and author. Her areas of expertise lie in nutritional immunology. Her seminal works are books titled Nutritional Immunology, Plant Food and Nutritional Immunology: A Scientific Approach, Nutrition • Immunology • Longevity, and Enjoying Health & Longevity with Nutritional Immunology.

Where are the origins of the plant-based ingredients used in eLead products?

The plant food used in the making of eLead products are grown all over the world. Extensive research is carried out beforehand to determine the best conditions and environment for the plant species selected. Our plants are harvested from the best and most conducive environments through stringent selection processes.

Are all the plant food used in eLead products grown organically?

Not all plant based ingredients can be grown organically, e.g. cactus and ginseng which takes years to grow. In its natural environment, they have to be carefully cultivated for years before harvesting. Moreover, as mentioned above, our plant-based ingredients are grown in many different parts of the world, whereby different countries have different regulations on organic produce. eLead is adamant in providing only the best quality nutritional immunology products and is equally committed to observing the highest safety and hygiene standards from planting, harvesting, handling, manufacturing, to packaging to ensure the products’ nutritional content remain intact.

Hypothetically speaking, if one was to purchase the same listed ingredients in eLead products and proceed to make his or her own concoction, will the effect and potency be the same?

eLead products are manufactured according to the science of nutritional immunology, whereby:

 

  • Extensive research and testing have been carried out on its various plant ingredients in order to discover the right ingredients with the most abundant phytonutrients, antioxidants and polysaccharides.
  • Years of experience and knowledge of plant food are utilized to select plant foods that are most beneficial to the health of our immune system. E.g. there are more than 80 kinds of ginger; nutrients vary from one species to another even if they are from the same family.
  • Selection of the most effective and nutritious part/section of the plant species.
  • The timing of harvesting plays an important role, i.e. for ginseng, the older the better – in reference to the colloquial term “100-Year-Old Ginseng”. In contrast, mushrooms should be picked while they are still tender.
  • Proper processing: different plants require different methods of processing and handling, e.g. some plants must be heated to activate its contents, whilst some plants will lose its nutrients if heat is applied.

 

The above are some of the reasons why eLead products are so revered and popular for its effectiveness. Every plant ingredient has gone through a whole cycle of research and development, proper handling and manufacturing processes. eLead products are highly concentrated and packaged using state-of-the-art technology to ensure its wholesomeness, freshness and to maintain its nutritional content. Hence,  even if one purchases the raw ingredients as listed on eLead products and proceed to make a DIY concoction, the ratio and concentration ratio will differ vastly and will not produce the same effect as an eLead product.

What is the difference between eLead products and other self-proclaimed health products?

eLead products are the result of extensive research and world class manufacturing processes based on the science of nutritional immunology. Nutritional immunology is pioneered by Dr.Jau-Fei Chen, PhD, founder of E.Excel International, which studies the close relationship between the nutrition in our food and its effect on the immune system.

What is anti-caking agent?

Under heat and high humid conditions, some powdered drinks or food may clump together. Even with a well contained and advanced packaging facility, this problem can’t be avoided completely. Permitted anti-caking agent is thus employed as an additive to counter such issues. By preventing powder agglomeration, the quality of the product is preserved.

Is silicon dioxide safe?

Silicon dioxide, also known as silica is added to many foods and supplements. As a food additive, it serves as an anticaking agent to avoid clumping. In supplements, it is used to prevent the various powdered ingredients from sticking together. When taken in conjunction with a well-balanced diet, it can have beneficial effect to the recovery of joint and cartilage damage i.e. arthritis, and also benefits the wall of our blood vessels. Silica that is used in food additives will not cause side effect, especially when only very little amount is used for its anticaking properties.

Are eLead products safe for consumption? Have they undergone any official inspection and safety checks?

eLead products are manufactured in United States and Singapore. It is then distributed across the globe to Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea, the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Europe, United States, Canada and various other regions and countries. eLead products have passed the quality inspections of the relevant health, food and drug authorities in all the countries mentioned above. E.Excel products have been in the international market for over 30 years and countless people across the globe consume the products on a daily basis – a strong testimonial to the quality, safety and effectiveness of its products.
