One of life's richest rewards is the priceless gift of enjoying good health. When illness interrupts our lives, it often places our other goals and priorities on hold.
For more than two decades, E. Excel International and its founder, Dr. Jau-Fei Chen, have devoted their efforts to educating and developing products that provide your body the nutrition it needs to support a healthy immune system. The Science of Nutritional Immunology defines how proper nutrition, through a plant-based, whole-foods diet, enhances the immune system and its related functions. This understanding of your immune system's needs provides the framework for our research and development efforts.
NUTRITIONAL IMMUNOLOGY: The Gateway to a Healthier Life
One of life's richest rewards is the priceless gift of enjoying good health. When illness interrupts our lives, it often places our other goals and priorities on hold.
For more than two decades, E. Excel International and its founder, Dr. Jau-Fei Chen, have devoted their efforts to educating and developing products that provide your body the nutrition it needs to support a healthy immune system. The Science of Nutritional Immunology defines how proper nutrition, through a plant-based, whole-foods diet, enhances the immune system and its related functions. This understanding of your immune system's needs provides the framework for our research and development efforts.
These efforts include specifically researching plant based ingredients for three types of nutrients to assist your immune system-antioxidants, phytochemicals and polysaccharides.
Antioxidants protect your body's cells from the damaging effects of oxidization, a process that occurs naturally in your body. Taken in sufficient amounts, antioxidants also help delay the effects of aging.
Phytochemicals occur naturally in plants giving them the color, flavor, smell and texture unique to each. Research shows that phytochemicals protect plants from sunlight and help ensure their survival. They also possess an amazing ability to nourish and bolster the immune system. Additionally, the phytochemicals found in plants help protect cells from DNA damage, hinder the growth of microorganisms and help maintain healthy blood lipids and serum cholesterol levels.
Polysaccharides are long sugar chains that increase production of natural killer cells, as well as interferon and interleukin, body chemicals that trigger immune responses. Polysaccharides also create balance in your immune system and enable it to destroy existing damaged cells and invading viruses.
