Within our sophisticated systems and quality check processes we keep track of:

1. Meticulous Seed Selection:
Where something grows, how it grows, even the seed stock from which it is grown can be important determiners of quality.



2. Pristine Soil & Environment:
Our standards demand that only raw ingredient sources meeting our strict qualifications and highest standards, such as, fields in the least disturbed and most natural environments available be selected. These specifications also allow us to assure that all of our whole food concentrates and extracts are beyond organic and GMO-free.
3. Field Crop Monitoring:


Crops are monitored and assessed even before they are harvested. This assures the very highest quality at the outset and also allows us to precisely track crop lots. Early monitoring is performed on fruits, vegetables and grains and all other materials we use for NeoLife products.


4. Nutrient Optimizing Harvest:
Our qualified ingredient suppliers also carefully select the very best time of the year to harvest crops in order to ensure both quality and the highest nutrient content.


5. Quality Control Raw Crop Analysis:
Because of these same demanding standards, crops are continually analyzed for nutrient content and quality leading up to processing.


6. Nutrient Extraction & Concentration:
How a crop is processed is another key determiner of quality. That is why only state of the art equipment is used that guarantees the purest extractions and concentrates with an absolute minimum of processed alteration.


7. Purity & Potency Verification:
Purity and potency are crucial to maintaining quality. All ingredients are held under strict quarantine and cannot be released for use until laboratory tests for purity and potency are verified.



8. Socially Responsible Manufacturing:
Once the raw materials are processed to our specifications, they are delivered to our socially responsible manufacturing facilities. These facilities are routinely audited to ensure that they are operating in a manner that guarantees the highest quality manufacturing with the lowest environmental burden. State of the art equipment combines various raw materials into different forms with maximum efficiency guaranteeing consistency from batch to batch.
9. Quality Control & Laboratory Analysis:


Leading edge science continues to define NeoLife’s Quality Control System. All final products are tested and certified by the most reliable and validated scientific methods to ensure safety, quality and effectiveness. These methods are very important, but more importantly are the highly trained and skilled scientists that perform them that ensures that all of our quality standards for purity and potency are met.

Ongoing inspection and sample retention guarantee a future of quality. Meticulous inspection continues on the packaging line, and production samples are collected and retained to facilitate future tracking.
Each NeoLife product is the end result of top quality work by leading scientists, researchers and nutrition professionals – work that is based in state of the art technology and manufacturing and the very latest in science.

10. Product Delivery & Batch Tracking:
Even after NeoLife products are delivered to your door, batch numbers on every label allow us to answer your questions on ingredients or quality. The batch number that appears on every single NeoLife product acts as a window into the system that allows us to track every ingredient from its point of origin to its ultimate destination.

This batch numbering system is very important and highly documented so that NeoLife has full traceability forward – to the ultimate product destination, your home – and backward to the exact source of every ingredient. When a crop lot is first planted, the seeds themselves have a seed lot number assigned that ties to the origin and the quality testing performed. The growing crop itself is assigned a crop lot number which identifies where it is grown, how it was grown and how and when harvested along with all analytical, quality testing results.
When the crop lot arrives for further processing, extraction or concentration, another processed ingredient lot number is assigned which aides in tracking the material through the supply chain and tying in all quality tests related to the processing. Upon arrival at one of our manufacturing facilities, ingredients are assigned yet another lot number which identifies arrival dates, testing results and release for manufacturing dates.
When ingredients are combined into a finished product, that batch of product is assigned a unique batch number which identifies all of the specific ingredient lots that went into producing that particular batch. This is an important code number that allows NeoLife to identify every ingredient lot that went into the product as well as how the product was manufactured and every quality test performed on the production batch. Ultimately, when the batch of product is packaged, it is assigned a packaging batch number which appears on our product labels. This is the very important code number that allows NeoLife to trace every product forward to your home and every product ingredient backward throughout the entire supply chain to the very origin of every single raw material – Farm to Table.
NeoLife’s intricately developed batch numbering system yields a charted pathway from the Farm to the Table and guarantees you and your family the finest purity and potency and highest quality products available anywhere.
At NeoLife, Product philosophy is quite simple: absolute, unwavering pursuit of quality without compromise.

We believe that the right decisions about our bodies and our homes – deciding what to put into them and what to keep out of them – are among the most important decisions of our life. When it comes to our health, and the health of our children and families, there’s simply no room for compromise.

Food Derived Carotenoids Protect Against Lung Cancer


by SAB Director, John Miller
It is well known that carotenoids promote the body’s ability to defend against essentially all forms of cancer. You can find compelling evidence in the form of strong references that support that throughout peer-reviewed scientific/medical literature. A new study published by researchers from Montreal University in the journal Frontiers in Oncology reinforces that point by showing that combinations of dietary carotenoids derived from food provide a 25-35% protective factor against lung cancer.
Now, before I go any further let me start by saying that the single greatest cause of lung cancer is smoking. So if you smoke, stopping will be your strongest cancer prevention step.
That said, this study points out that smoker or not carotenoids offer protection to delicate lung tissue. It shows that those in the top 33% of food-based carotenoid consumers received a 25-35% risk reduction for lung cancer compared to the others in the group; irrespective of age, gender or smoking status. That makes this a powerful message for everyone! (For heavy smoking females vitamin C seemed to provide added protection as well.)
The study also found that higher intake of food-based carotenoids equated to lowered cell development sub-forms of cancer, including squamous cell, small cell and adenocarcinoma cell growth.

Here are my key takeaways:
1. Dietary abundance of food-derived carotenoids is a strong health protector; for cancer, but other chronic diseases as well. We should all make getting them a priority every day.
2. A diversity of food-derived carotenoids is hugely important. In this study they looked at 4 that work in synergy with each other; alpha and beta carotene, beta cryptoxanthin and lycopene.
3. You can only get food-derived carotenoids from food. So eating lots of carotenoid-rich foods is important.
4. If you have trouble consuming an abundance of carotenoid -rich foods each day, try supplementing to fill your whole food-carotenoid gap.
So, eat smart every day and consume a lot of carotenoid-rich fruits and vegetables. And if you can’t do that make sure to fill your whole food-carotenoid gap with superior quality supplements….or better yet, do both. I do.
