The GNLD Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) has been aware of BSE since it was first detected in 1986 and long ago took all available precautions to insure that none of our products were affected in any way by this disease. Furthermore, the SAB and our Global Science Network is continuing to monitor the scope of BSE and is constantly reviewing the situation and making sure the strictest measures possible are always in place.
In the meantime, we can assure you that all bovine ingredients in GNLD products originate from cattle grown in non-BSE countries and are certified to attest to this fact. All of our raw materials are tested using a series of state-of-the-art scientific methods at many points along the production path to ensure their safety, efficacy, and quality.
Ox bile is used as an effective source of bile salts in GNLD's Enzyme Digestive Aid for its ability to emulsify lipids in the diet; bile salts assist in making fat globules smaller so they are easily digested and absorbed by the body. Much like other digestive components such as enzymes or betaine, ox bile, though derived from a food source (beef), is not included for its nutritional value but rather for the ability to supplement normal body digestive secretion and enhance digestion.
We also want to remind you that at GNLD we base our products on Nature's blueprint. Our approach to product formulation is to always look first to nature for 100% natural, whole food ingredients from the human food chain.
GNLD Neolife products are low-allergy! Wheat allergies are usually an allergy to the portion of wheat protein known as gluten. The wheat germ oil we use contains no wheat gluten. In fact, in the case of grain-based allergies, NONE of GNLD NeoLife products contain the gluten or protein portions of the grain that are commonly associated with allergic reactions.
There has been quite a lot of research on Co-Enzyme Q-10. It is a substance which functions as an antioxidant; it is a lipid, somewhat similar to vitamin E. Although this substance occurs naturally in the body, there is, at present, no natural source available to manufacturers of supplements. All products currently sold contain synthetic Co-Enzyme Q-10. Moreover, the body itself manufactures Co-Enzyme Q-10. GNLD's Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) will continue to monitor the research on Co-Enzyme Q-10, but at this time we cannot justify producing a product that would certainly be very costly (it's quite an expensive ingredient) and yet would not be certain to provide real health and nutrition benefits, and would not be from natural sourcing.
