I was recently sent two wonderful products for the NYHE event from Quality of Life Labs. Quality of Life Labs, Inc. backs their products with more than 25 years of clinical research, clinical trials and technical scientific support to create only the highest of quality products. I told them I wanted to start fresh with the New Year so they sent me AHCC and Oligonol. Quality of Life Labs is the proud recipient of the Nutracon Best New Product of 2002 award, the esteemed NutrAward, for AHCC(Active Hexose Correlated Compound). This award is given to the best new natural product on the market with solid scientific research and proven efficacy.
“Active hexose correlated compound (AHCC) is a supplement from Japan that has been getting a lot of attention lately. It is a functional food derived from medicinal shiitake mushrooms which has been shown to have immune system enhancing abilities along with anti-inflammatory properties and other healing features. The good news is that over 25 human clinical studies help support the use of AHCC. A recent clinical study from Michigan State University shows that AHCC enhances the power of the seasonal flu shot, making it even more effective against this potentially deadly virus.”
AHCC ® is Japan’s #1 top-selling immune support dietary supplement, now available in the United States. AHCC® (Active Hexose Correlated Compound) is an extract obtained from a hybridization of several species of mushroom mycelia. AHCC® supports normal immune function and may improve the number and functions of immune system cells.* It has been shown to significantly increase immune response* by promoting enhanced macrophage and T-cell activity* and boosting peak Natural Killer (NK) cell function.*

Oligonol is the other great product they sent me and I am sure you all will love this one!It is an anti-aging product which is made from lychee fruit and green tea. It also helps reduce fatigue. Now its a bit technical so I included some information from the Quality of Life information page about Oligonol.
Oligonol is manufactured from the extract of lychee fruit and green tea, is the world’s first commercially produced low-molecular-weight polyphenol. The patented oligomerization process entails taking long chain polymers and breaking them down into monomers, dimers, and trimers, thereby reducing its molecular weight and improving the polyphenol’s absorption into the body. By delivering more blood to the heart and skin, Oligonol helps to improve blood circulation, reduce fatigue and body fat, protect against UV rays, and slow the process of skin wrinkling. Consequently, the compound delivers unparalleled bioavailability and its efficacy is well supported by multiple human clinical studies, for which it won the Nutracon Award as “Top Science-Backed Product of the Year” in 2008.
Something else I found extremely cool about Oligonol:
Oligonol is derived from lychee fruit. Lychee has been a valued fruit renowned for thousands of years for promoting healthy aging. In ancient China, the Emperor’s concubine, Yang Gui Fei, reportedly maintained her breathtaking beauty for all the many years of her life because of lychee which the Emperor horded from all over China for her use only.
