FAQ.
- Are there any tests/ testimonials done about Staff of Life complete nutrition powder? A: All our products have conducted laboratory nutritional tests with the University of Western Sydney. Tested free of all herbicides and pesticides.
- Where do the ingredients come from?A: Ingredients are all from natural food sources, grown whenever seasons permit in Australia.
- Why are there so many ingredients? (Over 130)A: Other than the 5 element theory and yin and yang philosophy, synergy is another key point to Staff of Life Complete Nutrition – the ingredients work together synergistically to boost each ones positive qualities to another level.
- Is the product organic? A: One of the most important factors of organic foods is that they are grown without the use of pesticides & herbicides. Although Staff of Life is not certified, it is tested to be free of herbicides, pesticides and heavy metal toxins. See attachment A.
Due to our extensive ingredients list it is impossible to find organic certification for all of them. For a food to be classified as organic, it must be at least 95% organic.
- Does one have to detox first before starting the Staff of Life?A: Not necessarily,Staff of Life helps up to a certain stage in cleansing the system itself. It promotes and cleanses the body via providing extensive nutrients for the body, so that the body functions righteously and then removes any excess toxins. Usually, there is not a need for any other cleansing. But it wouldn’t hurt if the body system became cleaner and therefore to receive more goodness from the Staff of Life. If severe cleansing is required, it would be wise to do so.
- Will the Staff of Life Complete Nutrition Interfere with other set programs?i.e. Chinese herbs or naturopathic or allopathic or Ayuvedic dietary supplements.
A: No, it does not interfere with other natural medicine programs or even orthodox programs. Staff of Life may be taken with medications etc. As the ingredients are all natural food sources, Staff of Life as a raw food, supports our recovery - whatever treatment we are on.
- Can you talk more in depth about the balance and harmony, the yin and yang of raw food and how it supports the body.?A: It is very important for the body to be in balance and harmony. The yin and yang must also be in balance and harmony for the body to function properly. When our body is imbalanced that’s where all problems begin to arise. Too much of everything is not good and too little of everything is not good too. (This applies very strongly to Yin and Yang).
Most of us only think of the superficial aspects of Yin and Yang, but beneath the Yin or Yang there is also Yin and Yang and so it goes on infinitively.
Eg. Two people having the same symptoms usually in “normal” natural medicine or orthodox treatment will be given the same sort of treatment. However, two cases sharing same symptoms may be totally different and which other considerations need to be taken for possible difference in eating patterns (too much yin or yang in the food), lifestyle etc (sleep too much or sleep late etc) which will cause different Yin and Yang imbalance. Thus why sometimes there have been many questions and complaints in the past about natural medicine on why it does not work etc. Consequently, it is very important to treat the body holistically as a one.
This is where the importance of 5 element theory and yin and yang balance comes into place because it is the true holistic philosophy towards optimal health Naturopathic philosophy and natural medicine constantly speak about holistic treatment, however majority of practitioners fall into the gap of treating either symptomatic disorders or individual organs.
- Can you talk more in depth about the ‘Feng Shui’ of food? A: Any food will belong to a certain element from the 5 element theory. Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water. Each element has a representing organ as well as a shallow organ. Eg. Sour food (lemon) stimulates the Liver (Wood) and will also stimulate its shallow organ which is the eyes. So, colour of food and taste of food will be categorized into a certain element and will benefit its organ and shallow organ when ingested. However, rules always apply with balance – yin & yang (Not too much and not too little). Because sometimes too much will effect other organs and too little may not be enough to help other organs to have the right flow in the body.
- Can you explain the five elements in more depth and their relationship to our food and our bodies? A: The sequence of five elements should be Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water. If it’s reversed it will have reverse effect on the body.
- Can we confidently stop consuming all other vitamin supplements? A: As a naturopath, I would generally say Yes, because Staff of Life Complete Nutrition provides all nutrients from natural food sources. However, if a patient needs further care in particular conditions, there are more complex herbs that should be taken.
People do not realize the toxic synthetic effect of the usual kind of vitamin supplement. A simple test for everyone to do is when they take a tablet of multi-B vitamin supplement. Wait for next urination, the urination colour turns to a fluro yellow-greenish colour. This is an abnormal sign, because if we eat a whole table of fruit and vegetable, that contains just as much nutrients our urine will still remain the same neutral colour as it normal should. The fluro colour is abnormal and our body notifies it by trying to remove it from our body, but what if we were only able to clear out only 99% of the fluro coloured urine in our system, what happens to the 1% that is accumulated in our body? Therefore, what does this tell us? Therefore, it is important to obtain good source of nutrients naturally, and Staff of Life Complete Nutrition powder provides a variety of rich nutrient sources for the body to maintain healthily on a daily basis.
- How does Staff of Life Complete Nutrition support premenstrual women, pre menopausal etc?A: Many research and studies have suggested where there is hormonal imbalance, women particularly lack Calcium, Iron, Zinc and other nutrients. Therefore, it is most important to provide necessary nutrients for these women to gain balance. Staff of Life Complete Nutrition powder provides a variety of rich nutrient sources that are easily digested.
- How can Staff of Life Complete Nutrition influence depression?A: With depression patients, they usually are very nutrient deficient and also have
liver congestion and toxin build up. Therefore, Staff of Life Complete Nutrition may help to clear some toxins out of the system and restore nutrients needed for the body to regulate their well-being.
- Can pregnant women take Staff of Life Complete Nutrition?Absolutely! Staff of Life Complete Nutrition is safe for pregnant women. Whilst pregnant and when breast feeding, it is vital that the mother has sufficient nutrition. This is passed on to the baby, who is then more content as it is receiving the proper nourishment. Also, the mother has more energy for the increased demand on her physically. At 6 months, you can start giving Staff of Life complete nutrition to the baby directly, mixed in water or milk or juice. Only about half a teaspoon a day is required when the baby is so young.
We have had many successful feedbacks from consumers that they've had healthy beautiful babies. Consumers have commented that their babies were easy to take care of (because the baby is healthy therefore --> do not feel agitated), and pregnant ladies hardly experienced any usual symptoms of pregnancy.(such as fluid retention, vomiting, nausea etc) Answers from Jenny Liu – Naturopath / Complete Nutritional Foods

Why do we need ‘Superfood’ supplements like Staff of Life?
These days our foods are often grown in depleted, or over fertilized soil, and are subsequently missing vital nutrients.
For many people, eating the variety of nutrients we require for optimum good health is simply too difficult because of poor digestion, lack of time or availability of the right foods.
Staff of Life provides the array and quality of nutrients our body requires for proper digestion and energy.
Over processed and refined foods are often ‘dead’ in terms of the subtle ‘energy’ natural and fresh foods nourish us with.
Staff of Life ingredients are uncooked and harvested at the peak of ripeness to maintain their ‘life-force’ or natural frequency. The ingredients are then freeze-dried so the enzymes are left intact.
Synthesis 345 Staff of Life is a formula developed over many years from specially chosen whole foods, to balance the energy (Yin/Yang) of all the organs of the body according to the Five elements: Fire, Water, Wood, Earth & Air.

More about why Staff of Life is so good...
Many foods today are lacking in sufficient nutrients. Chemical over farming, pollution, overcooked and highly processed food which contain preservatives and artificial colours further deplete nutrients.
In addition, the overuse of antibiotic drugs, fast foods, soft drinks, contribute to the decline in immune systems and accumulation of toxins in the body which may lead to the degeneration of organs, such as liver, kidney, heart, lung, spleen. Such degeneration results in the body becoming more susceptible to diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, heart and kidney diseases, asthma, cancer, infections and allergies.
We can easily become overfed and undernourished.
The famous Chinese doctor Sun Si Miao said "try food as a cure first, then try medicine". Wise words indeed!
Western medicine is based on treating disease. The result is a huge budget creating wastage of public resources and increasing the burden on taxes. Apart from the economic issue, the nation cannot afford the decline in the health of its population, but priority is still given to cure rather than prevention.
Allergic reactions and side effects to drugs and foodstuffs are becoming rampant in western societies creating a great need for balanced, natural food supplements for the prevention of disease. The search for the right natural and balanced supplement can be a minefield of misinformation and confusion when confronted by the array of products available.
Good health should be simple not a complicated mystery!
Suitable for infants from 6 months, young children, teenagers and adults through to the elderly, the Synthesis 345 Staff of Life Real Nourishment Powder is a complete, easily digested food in convenient powder form for instant use, in a 300 gram jar.
It is Australian made from over 130 uncooked fruits and vegetables which are harvested at the peak of ripeness to maintain the 'life force' or natural frequency. It contains a wide range of other energy packed ingredients with no added sugar, no preservatives and no heat is involved in preparation so the enzymes are still intact.
With the right food you receive the right energy (frequencies) to keep your body working in perfect harmony, balancing Yin and Yang energies. Therefore it is necessary to eat as wide a range possible of fresh uncooked fruit and vegetables because each one has different levels of vitamins, minerals, fatty acids and enzymes and amino acids. Your body recognises what it requires and will discard what is not needed. Your digestive system also knows the difference between natural products made from the whole plant and those which have had only the active ingredient extracted. It responds much more favourably to the whole plant which it was designed to digest.
Staff of Life Real Nourishment Powder is suitable for all ages from babies and young children to the very elderly. A child’s cellular brain structure is complete at age 5, making it necessary to provide top quality nutrition during this vital growing period. Adults also really enjoy the pleasant taste and easy use of this dynamic product used daily to ensure good cellular nutrition.
Evenly combined into a fine palatable powder, Staff of Life can be added to cereals, drinks, smoothies or sprinkled over prepared food. It makes a breakfast-in-a -hurry in a glass of juice or milk for the person who can't face an early breakfast or it will tide you over if it is necessary to delay a meal for an important meeting, a very early morning start, a lecture or a million other reasons. This is not a meal replacement however.
