I FOUND A WAY TO PROTECT MY FAMILY HEALTH AND TO IMPROVE OUR FINANCIAL WEALTH.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO HEAR MY STORY?
If ...YES, than ...
WELCOME TO A WORLD OF TOTAL BODY HEALTH
MY ATHLETIC SAD STORY
 As a competitive black belt martial artist I was teaching the art of fighting and self-discipline, to kids, adults and military personnel, and through my personal example, my focus was always to promote a healthy lifestyle. I was training with the best martial arts athletes in Europe, and I was working hard for my recognition.
But what was the cost?
In 1991, in Milano, Italy, at the annual sport medical assessment check out, I was found to have abnormal beating of the heart (palpitations) possible because overexertion, excessive adrenaline, and caffeine. And I was only 29 years old. The sad story begins when one of the best Italian athletes, died of a heart attack. It was a tragedy for everybody, but for me it was a shock, since I always believed that athletes are healthier than other people.
I had a chance to spoke to Dr. Alessandro Lanzani, a sport medicine doctor specialized in metabolic fitness. He explains to me that physical activity causes an increase in oxygen consumption and that an increase in oxygen uptake during exercise will lead to an elevation of free radical production. He explain to me that eating a diet rich in antioxidant-containing foods, such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains, founded in Mediterranean diet, is linked to a reduced risk of cardiovascular (heart and blood vessels) disease, but some times is not enough. "We need also antioxidant supplements such as vitamins A,C,E and the mineral selenium".
A few years later I received the sad information that, one of my friends I used to train with him in Romania, passed away, suffering of colon cancer, and another athlete that was my business partner, is in chemotherapy for cancer of the bladder. Last year, (2008) I received information via e-mail that despite his healthy habits, a black belt and an avid competitor on WKF, passed away, falling victim to an aneurysm or blood clot. Many of you may remember him from the seminars, with great instructors like Sensei Asai, Saito or Kasuya, or from the several US national and international competitions he was attending each year. Last time I saw him, was in April 2008, at the US-OPEN, competition in Las Vegas, where he was the second place winner for his group age.
BIG INFLUENCE
  It was not until I immigrated to Canada (1995) and when I read Dr. Michael Colgan’s book on “Optimum Sport Nutrition” that peaked my interest on learning more about nutrition and sport performances. Also Dr. Colgan’s book “The New Nutrition-Medicine for the Millennium” influenced me, to study not only sport performances, but also natural nutrition and general health.
Athletes in training generally use 10-20 times more oxygen than other people. Millions of free radicals are formed during heavy exercise and can damage every muscle cell they contact. The nutrient needs for athletes increases, because of the demands of their training.
“Exercising without nutritional protection is downright unhealthy"
Dr. Colgan published this remark more than a decade ago and it is truer today that ever because of the increasing sophistication and physical demands of sports training, and the increasing daily stress of nutrient-deficient foods, and the health-negative impact of environmental and electromagnetic pollution.
"Athletes are often severely deficient in important nutrients, especially antioxidants, yet ignorance continues to abound regarding this matter. Many continue to push the myth of the good mixed diet as optimal for everyone"
Let me tell you that this myth of a healthy diet does not hold true, especially for athletes, and I have all the evidences to prove this statement.
♦ Evidence from government documents and other scientific research, shows that contaminated water, air pollution, acidic rains and depleted soils have degraded our food supply and this sad situation is creating many degenerative diseases. Exposure to toxins and heavy metals require a higher intake of certain nutrients (vitamins and minerals) to enable the body to excrete them and to provide building blocks for cellular repair and maintenance.
In all my extensive research I found out that our bodies are “rusting out” due to environmental influences, such as free radicals, exposure to germs and man-made toxins and lifestyle factors including how we handle stress we are under, what we eat or don’t eat, and how much sleep we get. By studying this subject, I understood what free radicals are, and how oxidative stress, inflammation and a diet high in refined sugars damage our cells. I read many books related to sport and nutrition, and literally hundreds of studies in medical literature that demonstrated the value of essential nutrients and antioxidant supplements for athletes and for general health.
WHAT HAPPENED TO ALL THIS ATHLETES ?
In short, a high sugar diet (typical American Diet) can damage the cells by fueling a biochemical process called glycation in which molecules of sugar and proteins get tangled up, creating glycated proteins with a tendency to fuse together making the tissues of the body more stiff. Those glycated proteins begin to create toxic compounds named advanced glycation end products (AGE), which bound to receptors on the surface of the cells generating millions of free radicals and promoting inflammation. Oxidative stress and systemic inflammation are the leading causes of many degenerative diseases including cancer, cardiovascular diseases and diabetes.
My conclusion is that, if you value your health, it makes sense to consider supplementing your healthy diet of organic vegetables and fruits with high quality broad spectrum nutritional supplements, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, as a personal health insurance plan that will help you to maintain your health and age gracefully.
WHY I CHOOSE USANA?
In 1999, I was introduced to Usana, as a network marketing opportunity, but I refused the offer based off of my previous biases regarding this type of marketing. I was not only skeptical but also cynic, about selling vitamins, in a system that many people don’t trust. I understand that the word of mouth is a powerful tool, and it can be applied for seeing a movie, going to a restaurant, going on vacation or recommended long distance or internet services that you cannot find them on stores. But not for nutritional supplements which you can find them at reasonable prices at Costco or Wal-Mart.
Despite our active healthy lifestyle, and organic nutrition, my wife Daniela was developed severs migraine headache, that kept her unable to perform her basic duties at work. Seeing this made me think about hers and my nutrition and how we may be able to benefit from taking th
WHY I CHANGED MY MIND?
 In 2005, I had the chance to read Dr. Ray Strand’s book “What the Doctor Doesn’t Know about Nutritional Medicine, -May be Killing You”. As a specialist on nutritional medicine, Dr. Ray Strand recommended products from Usana Health Science, additional to a healthy diet and moderate exercise. At that time I was taking for myself some multivitamins, just to make sure I get enough, but I used the one you find it on any health food stores.
But for the average “Joe” or a non-competitive athlete, I thought that our diet should supply a variety of fruits and vegetables, the main dietary sources of most vitamins and minerals, and I agree with health experts that have long recommended at least seven to ten daily servings.
All my confusion disappear when I found that also Dr. Colgan - who influence me to study nutrition - was the one that influence also this marketing. (Read Usana's Story). And for this reason I decided to try Usana’s products based Dr. Ray Strand’s recommendation. And believe me it works. Both Daniela and I continue to feel the difference!
USANA IN PDR AND CPS
♦ Than I found out that six of Usana's products are listed on the Compendium of Pharmaceuticals and Specialty (CPS) in Canada, and in the 'Physician's Desk Reference' (PDR) in US, since 2000.
♦ The PDR and CPS are used as a reference tool by doctors needing an accurate overview of prescription and non-prescription pharmaceutical products. Usana's products feature in this publication due to their adherence to US guidelines for potency and uniformity and because they are manufactured according to pharmaceutical Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs).

♦ Beside Colgan's books on sport and nutrition, which greater influence me, the “Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements” make the final point.
 ♦ On his 4th Edition of “Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements” Mr. MacWilliam design a “Blended Standard”, including the final product score based on 18 health criteria. The Blended Standard is a compilation of recommended daily nutritional intakes deemed important for long-term health.
♦ These intakes are derived from the suggested daily intakes published by 12 independent nutritional authorities, including Dr. Michael Murray, Dr. Michael Colgan, Dr. Richard Passwater, Dr. Julian Whitaker and other recognized authorities on the science of nutrition, acknowledged within their respective scientific, medical, and naturopathic fields.
♦ Each has published one or more works, and each has provided specific recommendations for daily nutritional intakes.. The recommended daily intake for each nutrient was determined, wherever possible, by calculating the median value from those authorities who provide a specific dosage recommendation.
HOW TO CHOOSE QUALITY SUPPLEMENTS
More than 1500 products were analized and Usana Health Sciences received the “Nutri-Search Gold Medal of Achievements” for the “Highest Standards of Quality in Research, Formulation and Manufacturing” according to the 4th edition of Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements. (www.nutrisearch.ca)
PRODUCT RATING AND 18 HEALTH SUPPORT CRITERIA
In all, 47 nutrient categories, consisting of 19 vitamins or vitamin-like factors, 13 minerals, 5 phytonutrients complexes, 3 omega fatty acids, and 7 other nutritional factors, are identified and incorporated into this revised standard.
-
Completeness: looks to see if the product contains all the Blended Standard nutrients.
-
Potency: looks to see how much of each nutrient the product contains compared to the Blended Standard amounts.
-
Mineral Forms: examines the molecules that minerals are bound with to help them cross into the bloodstream. Amino acid chelates and organic acid complexes (such as citrates and gluconates) mimic the natural mineral chelates that form during the digestive process. Chelated minerals also appear not to block other minerals from being absorbed, unlike many of the less expensive mineral salts (carbonates, sulphates, and chlorides).
-
Bioactivity of Vitamin E: looks to see if the vitamin E is the natural or synthetic form. Natural forms include d-alpha tocopherol, while synthetic vitamin E, only half as effective, is usually in the form of dI-alpha tocopherol.
-
Gamma Tocopherol: checks to see if the product includes the gamma form of vitamin B. Studies show that gamma tocopherol reduces chronic inflammation and protects against cancers of the colon and prostate. High-dose supplementation with alpha tocopherol alone can reduce the level of gamma tocopherol in body tissues.
-
Antioxidant Support: examines the nutrients that help to prevent or repair cellular damage caused by oxidation, including vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin A, beta-carotene, alpha-lipoic acid, lycopene, coenzyme Q1O, and selenium.
- Inflammation Control: examines the nutrients responsible for reducing inflammation at the cellular level, such as omega-3 oils—including those found in fish oil (eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acids, or EPA and DHA)—linolenic acid, gamma-tocopherol, alpha-lipoic acid, vitamin C, flavonoids, procyanidolic oligomers, and the phenolic compounds. Chronic inflammation can lead to serious degenerative disease, including heart disease, cancers and arthritis.
- Glycation Control: examines those nutrients (1-carnosine, alpha-tocopherol, gamma-tocopherol, vitamin C, and alpha-lipoic acid) that help slow the progress of many degenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and cancer.
- Metabolic Health: examines those nutrients that help the body handle its daily sugar load, keeping systems responsive to insulin and restoring lost insulin sensitivity. These nutrients include vitamin B3, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, vitamin C, vitamin E, biotin, coenzyme Q l0, chromium, magnesium, manganese, and zinc.
- Liver Health: examines those nutrients (including vitamin C, cysteine and n-acetyl-cysteine, selenium, vitamin B2, and vitamin B3) that enhance liver function and optimize levels of glutathione, which helps cells fight off toxic challenges.
- Lipotropic Factors: examines those nutrients, including choline, lecithin, and inositol that help remove toxins, including heavy metals like lead. The liver and the brain are two primary targets for the accumulation of fat-soluble toxins.
- Methylation Support: looks at those nutrients, including vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin Bi 2, folic acid, and trimethylglycine, required for the body to produce methyl donor molecules. Methyl donors help reduce homocysteine levels in the blood, protecting the arteries and nerve fibres.
- Ocular Health: Good eyesight and prevention of cataracts and macular degeneration require adequate levels of several nutrients, including vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin A (including beta-carotene), and the carotenoids, lutein and zeaxanthin.
- Phenolic Compounds Profile: examines a specific group of Phenolic compounds (polyphenolic acids and their derivatives), known to be exceptionally potent defenders against free radicals. Phenols derived from olives, green tea, and curcumin are also known to improve major risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including lowering the impact of inflammation.
- Heart Health: examines nutrients that help protect the heart and cardiovascular system, including vitamin E, beta-carotene, coenzyme Q10, calcium, magnesium, 1-carnitine or acetyl-l-carnitine, procyanidolic oligomers (PCOs), phenolic compounds, and lycopene.
- Bone Health: examines the nutrients that assist in bone remodeling, vital to ward off osteoporosis and other diseases that weaken the skeletal framework. These nutrients include vitamin D, vitamin K, vitamin C, vitamin B6, vitamin Bi 2, folic acid, boron, calcium, magnesium, silicon, and zinc.
- Bioflavonoid Profile: examines the bioflavonoid family of nutrients, which work throughout the body to attack free radicals and support many bodily fuctions. These important nutrients include citrus flavonoids, soy isoflavones, quercetin, quercitrin, hesperidin, rutin, bilberry, assorted berry extracts, and PCO5 (including resveratrol, grape seed, and pine bark extracts).
- Potential Toxicities: examines those nutrients that can build up in the body, possibly leading to toxic levels with —long-term intake. This includes vitamin A and iron. Accidental overdose of iron-containing supplements is, in fact, a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children. Vitamin A is available, safely, as beta-carotene, while adequate iron is easily obtainable for most people from foods.

Are the Usana ESSENTIALS®, really any different?
Some people believe that they are unique. And an apple can test show the difference. You can use this test to any multivitamin product in the market to see the power of their antioxidant protection. Because I do not believe eveything without testing myself, I done the apple test with the most popular brand name: Centrum Forte, (you can use any other multivitamin product in the market, to compare with USANA's ESSENTIALS®)
APPLE TEST EXPLAINED
♦ Get two glasses and fill them with water until about 2/3 full.
♦ Label 1 glass with your vitamin, the other USANA mega antioxidant (the yellow vitamin).
♦ Place your vitamin in 1 glass, the USANA vitamin in the USANA labelled glass.
♦ Peel an apple and put 1 slice in each glass.
♦ Peel an apple and put 1 slice in each glass.
♦ Peel an apple and put 1 slice in each glass.
♦ Leave uncovered for 4 days and keep in a place where they will not be knocked over or touched.
They will look real ugly after 4 days. Notice the color of the water.
♦ Get a fork and pull out the apple from the glass with your vitamin. It will probably be brown and be deteriorating. You probably would not want to eat this apple. This is what is going on in your system. Free radicals are developing.
♦ Get another fork and pull out the apple from the USANA glass. The water is discoloured, but the apple is almost pristine white. That is due to the antioxidants. It will help to keep your system clean from free radicals, which have been known to cause many degenerative diseases including cancer, diabetes, and heart conditions.
♦ In my test, the Centrum Forte turns black in a day and was really gross by the end of the week.
The whiter the apple the better for it has more antioxidants. That's what you want.

I took this apple test to the next level.
♦ Well, I thought...What would happen if I took that black apple and put it in a jar with Usana's antioxidant? It was very impressive!!! The black from the gross apple gradually was being pulled out and ended up floating on top.
♦ Try it, it is quite amazing. I think this 2nd part of the experiment is even more impressive than the first part.
What kind of protection would you like to have for the cells in your body???
♦ Read some of the ingredients in ESSENTIALS®, and compare with other products.
ESSENTIALS® ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
♦ Daily stress and environmental pollutants bombard us with increasing levels of free radicals (potentially damaging, highly reactive molecules). Diets high in processed foods and lacking in whole, unrefined foods have further increased the need for vitamins and antioxidant supplementation.
Mega Antioxidant™
Offers advanced levels of high-quality, highly bioavailable vitamins and antioxidants to meet this increased need. Mega Antioxidant also offers nutritional support for retaining sound cardiovascular function, healthy pregnancies, optimal vision, a sound immune system, and efficient energy metabolism.
The Heart of the Olive™ USANA’s patented extract provides highly bioavailable phenolic antioxidants that have been shown to protect low-density lipoproteins (LDL) from oxidation.
Vitamin E—the Premier antioxidant Vitamin E is a family of essential fat-soluble nutrients (tocopherols) that act as powerful antioxidants. D-alpha tocopherol is the natural form shown to have the greatest nutritional and biological value. Vitamin E plays a critical role in protecting LDL and cell membranes from oxidation, and works synergistically with other antioxidants to combat free radical damage.3
Mixed Tocopherols. Emerging science has shown that other tocopherols also provide important biological activities and health benefits. These mixed tocopherols help leverage the health benefits of alpha tocopherol with other vitamin E compounds to provide a broad spectrum of antioxidant protection. In addition to D-alpha tocopherol, USANA’s advanced formula offers a full range of these natural mixed tocopherols to provide you with additional antioxidant support.
USANA’s Poly C® is a complex of mineral ascorbates that helps to prolong vitamin C activity in the body. Vitamin C is the master water-soluble antioxidant, offering health maintenance throughout the body.
MIXED CAROTENOID. USANA uses a mixture of carotenoids, providing a broad spectrum of antioxidant protection. Beta-carotene (provitamin A) promotes healthy skin, a strong immune system, and helps maintain good vision. Mega Antioxidant includes the safe provitamin form of vitamin A, beta carotene, which naturally converts into vitamin A only as needed, giving you the benefits of vitamin A without the risk of toxicity. In addition, lutein and lycopene are carotenoid antioxidants involved in protecting against free-radical damage in the eyes and other organs.
Lutein and Lycopene. Lutein selectively accumulates in tissues in the eye to help protect against damaging UV radiation. Lycopene supports health maintenance for many organs, including the lungs, skin, cervix, and prostate gland.
Coenzyme Q10. A potent antioxidant, coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is essential for energy production in our cells. One of the most researched and well-accepted nutrients for cardiovascular health, CoQ10 is especially important for a strong cardiovascular system. The body’s ability to synthesize or absorb CoQ10 declines with age, but taking USANA’s Mega Antioxidant can help you maintain healthy levels of this important nutrient.
Alpha Lipoic Acid. - is a vitamin-like antioxidant that is both fat- and water-soluble. Easily absorbed through the gut and transported across cell membranes, it offers protection against free radicals, both inside and outside the cell.15,16
BIOFLAVONOID COMPLEX. Through USANA's commitment to ongoing research, USANA has developed a unique, broad-spectrum bioflavonoid complex. Bioflavanoids are a diverse group of naturally occurring plant compounds that exhibits a host of biological activities, most notably powerful antioxidant properties that help complement, extend, and synergize the activities of other antioxidants.
In addition to synergistic activity from rutin, quercetin, hesperidin, green tea, and bilberry extracts, this diverse complex provides pomegranate and cinnamon extracts to provide broad-spectrum antioxidant support to further enhance and complement the effectiveness of Mega Antioxidant.
Complete Vitamin B complex. Mega Antioxidant contains carefully proportioned B-complex vitamins, which are fundamental to energy production, metabolism, growth, and retention of normal homocysteine levels.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control has stated, “All women of childbearing age in the United States who are capable of becoming pregnant should consume at least 400 μg of folic acid per day for the purpose of reducing their risk of having a pregnancy affected with spina bifida or other neural tube defects.”
One daily dose of Mega Antioxidant contains 1,000 μg of folic acid.
Vitamin B12 is necessary for the health of nerve cells; red blood cells; and DNA, the genetic material in all cells. It has been generally accepted that older adults are at greater risk of developing a vitamin B12 deficiency than younger adults. However, new research suggests that the prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency in young adults may be greater than previously thought, and those who do not take a supplement containing vitamin B12 are twice as likely to be vitamin B12 deficient as supplement users, regardless of age group. Mega Antioxidant supplies advanced levels of vitamin B12 at 200 μg in one daily dose.
MultiMineralPlusTM
Supplies a broad spectrum of essential minerals.
Minerals and trace elements represent less than one-half of one per cent of the total nutrients we consume every day. Yet without them, our bodies would be unable to efficiently use the carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in our diet. Many vitamins and enzymes need a mineral co-factor to function properly. MultiMineral Plus is a carefully formulated balance of essential minerals and ultra-trace minerals from the highest quality suppliers in forms that are readily absorbed by the body.
Zinc. A component of hundreds of enzymes, zinc is involved in carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism, as well as DNA and RNA replication. Zinc functions as an antioxidant, aids in retaining healthy bone structure development, maintains healthy immune functions, maintains healthy vision, and supports normal fetal growth.
Chromium. Today’s poor diets and unhealthy lifestyles often put stress on the body’s blood glucose control mechanisms. Chromium is an important component of the glucose tolerance factor (GTF), which helps retain healthy glucose metabolism, provided it is healthy to begin with. Healthy insulin and glucose levels are beneficial for weight management and sustained energy levels throughout the day.
Selenium is an essential component of the glutathione peroxidase antioxidant system, which helps combat the effects of free radicals and plays an important role in thyroid hormone metabolism. Selenium has also been shown to help support a healthy immune system. In addition, many studies have shown that selenium is important for retaining prostate health.
Magnesium is essential for the formation and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth, which is where 70 per cent of the body’s magnesium is found.6 It is involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates and amino acids and plays an important role in neuromuscular contractions. It is also an activator of hundreds of enzymes that are essential for life
Iodine is a crucial component in the production of thyroid hormones, which regulate metabolism, growth, reproduction, and the synthesis of protein. Supplemental iodine is especially important for people on a vegetarian diet, those who avoid seafood, or those who must restrict their salt intake.
Copper is a critical component of the enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), which is an important antioxidant in cell cytoplasm, and acts as a catalyst in the formation of hemoglobin. Copper is also essential for collagen synthesis.
Manganese is an important co-factor in the production of glycosaminoglycans, compounds that make up connective tissues, bones, arteries, and other organs.1 Manganese is an activator of numerous enzymes, and supplementation with manganese can enhance the SOD enzyme system to increase antioxidant activity.
Vanadium helps retain healthy serum glucose levels and may also help retain healthy thyroid function.

USANA's STORY
♦ When I start investigating the company background, and the people behind, and I found that USANA's founder, Dr. Myron Wentz, served as the microbiology director of three hospitals, before starting his own “Gull Laboratories” in Salt Lake City. At that time he used advanced cell culture techniques to make commercial tests to diagnose viral diseases. After spending many years in his laboratory, and being in contact to many chemicals, his health was in danger. He started eating right, but what he learned in the laboratory about how human cells function and he decided that supplementation was necessary.
♦ Influenced by the scientist Dr. Linus Pauling, Dr.Wentz found an interest on the science of human cells. On his experimental studies he began growing billions of cells in his quest to create accurate tests for diagnosing infectious diseases. He then noticed that some cell lines he had been growing for 20 years were unaffected by aging. Why? The key, he says, was proper nutrition.
♦ Wentz began taking a multivitamin, what he believed was the best multivitamin on the market, but soon he realized that the ingredients listed on the label could kill his laboratory cells culture if given to them. On that day he decided to nutrient himself and his family with the kind of nutrition that he feed his cells in culture.
♦ At the National Nutritional Foods Association, Dr. Michael Colgan saw Dr.Wentz's approach to nutrition at the cellular level, and he foresaw the potential for this as being greater than just personal health for only Wentz’s family. He concludes that this will be a major boon to human nutrition, and that Wentz must market these products. Wentz credited Dr. Michael Colgan as the individual who convinced him of the importance of producing [USANA's first] products.
♦ Thus in 1990 USANA was born as the Gull Health Products Division, to test and manufacture herbal and other natural products. In 1992 Wentz incorporated USANA, Inc., as a wholly-owned subsidiary of his Gull Laboratories. In 1993, with $22.7 million from selling Gull Laboratory to a German health care firm, USANA's finances were considerably strengthened, and new research could begin. USANA started as an independent firm. , with the focus on research programs, particularly those concerning products to help reverse the effects of coronary heart disease and stroke, the number one and three main causes of death in the United States, respectively.
♦ To reach his goals, Wentz enlarged USANA's cell culture research at Moscow's Cardiology Research Center and in 1994 he also announced an agreement to contract with the Linus Pauling Institute, where independent tests would show, that USANA products were superior to others on the market, particularly as regarded their antioxidant capabilities.
♦ Inspired by this information and with what he learns about cellular nutrition in the laboratory, Dr. Wentz applied this knowledge to human nutrition. Because both of his parents died prematurely; one from cancer, and the other from heart disease, Dr. Wentz’s belief is that many degenerative diseases that affect millions of lives are preventable, and many premature deaths could have been avoided had these individuals been given the benefit of sound nutrition.
USANA’S products are designed by scientists to work at the cellular level, detoxifying and replenishing the old damaged cells with new healthy ones. Dr. Myron Wentz, the founder of Usana Health Sciences, and his scientific team, understand that nutrition is the key to prevent many degenerative diseases.
Inferior manufacturing can destroy the greatest product formulations.
USANA manufactures its own nutritional supplements and they voluntarily follow the standards for pharmaceutical Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), which is far stricter than the food GMP requirements.
♦ USANA tests raw ingredients before they are mixed, the product during manufacturing, and for a final time before anything is sent to the customer. USANA's Quality Assurance team keeps track of every detail, from testing and evaluation of raw materials, to what happens to the products during shipping and storage. USANA’s products are laboratory tested through International’s Dietary Supplement Certification Program, and offers 100% purity and potency guaranteed.
♦ In 1998 USANA offered a wide variety of nutritional and personal care products. Its two "Essentials" to supplement adult diets were Mega Antioxidant tablets and Chelated Mineral tablets, which, taken together, promised to "work interactively, in conjunction with a healthy diet, to provide your body with the proper combination of nutrients needed for optimum performance from all of the body's cells.
♦ In addition to these Essentials, the company offered several Optimizers, including Proflavanol, a grape seed extract that reportedly mimicked the antioxidant advantages of French wines; Poly C concentrated tablets of Vitamin C; ActiveCalciumPlus, with Vitamin D3, calcium, and magnesium; Nutrimeal, a low glycemic meal replacement, with healthy carbohydrates and proteins; and several others. Teenagers and Children's nutrition was addressed through a child-strength blend of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants specific designed for their age.
♦ In 1997, Dr. Wentz created Sanoviv Medical Institute, a fully accredited leading edge medical institute, the only health and healing facility in the western hemisphere that practices the concept of whole body health and healing. The main difference between Sanoviv and conventional hospitals is the focus on healing rather than drugs. Sanoviv, meaning "healthy life," provides your entire being - mind, body, and soul - with a toxin-free environment.
Dr. Wentz has developed a unique program that effectively integrates complete mind-body-nutrition health; a concept which he believes will be the model for all successful healing centers of the future.
WHO MAKES THE BEST VITAMINS?
♦ Research done by microbiologist Lyle MacWilliam, a Former Canadian Member of Parliament, and a consultant for Environment Canada, and British Columbia Science Council, show that most of the supplements on the market are poorly formulated and don't even dissolve into the body. Some os this foundings were published in the 4th Edition of “Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements”.
♦ Approximately 99% of vitamins available today are food grade, meaning they “may or may not contain” what they list on the label (terms like ‘clinically tested’ can still mean food grade).
♦ CONSUMER LAB
In January 2007, ConsumerLab.com, a provider of independent test results to help consumers evaluate nutritional products, published the findings of an investigation of several popular dietary supplements.
Out of the 39 brands tested by ConsumerLab.com for content and purity, 12 brands failed the test.
♦ Among 21 products for adults and children that were tested, less than half meet labeling and quality standards. Several products failed to pass most than one of the test criteria. Earlier tests by this same company have uncovered several nutritional products that failed to meet label claims, failed to dissolve properly, or were contaminated with heavy metals. Further information about the particular products that have passed or failed their testing protocols is available at www.ConsumerLab.com.
♦ Alberta Study Finds Disintegration Problems
A recent study, conducted by researchers at the University of Alberta, also investigated disintegration patterns of a number of Canadian and US nutritional products. The study, conducted in 2006 and reported in the Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, investigated 39 tablet formulations and 10 encapsulated formulations. The authors of the study observed that there are products sold in or into the Canadian market using label claims that are difficult to define, and that add pseudoscientific and unjustified apparent value to the product.
Many products contained inaccurate, vague and misleading label claims, such as:
“contains all the finest ingredients,”
“most advanced complete daily nutrient from A to Z,”
“guarantee of absolute purity and full potency,”
“scientifically balanced formula,” and
“highest bioavailability. . . all ingredients are the highest quality and purity available.”.
Among them there are popular brand names such as:
Costco Kirkland, GNC, NuLife, Sisu, Swiss Herbal, Thropic, Jamieson, Melaleuca, Metagenics, NaturPharm, Pharmavite, Quest, Thorne Research and Wampole, (which didn't passed the standard desintegration test.)

 ♦ Mr.MacWilliam, a former Canadian Member of Parliament and Member of the Legislative Assembly for British Columbia recently served, at the behest of Canada’s federal Minister of Health, on the Transition Team for the Office of Natural Health Products, and authored its landmark report, A Fresh Start: Final Report of the ONHP Transition Team, released by the Minister in the spring of 2000.
♦ This report promotes a new regulatory environment that ensures Canadians access to safe, effective, high quality natural health products. He is the author of the third edition of the "Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements": A Compendium of Products Available in the United States and Canada and he was on the cutting edge of research in biological activity of antioxidants as free radical scavengers in the ‘70’s.
♦ In the 2003 Edition of the Comparative Guide, MacWilliam surveyed over 1000 multi-vitamin-mineral products available in Canada and the USA, and compares 504 products to the optimum daily vitamin recommendations given by globally renowned nutritional experts, Dr. Earl Mindell PhD, Phyllis Balch CNC, Dr. Julian Whittaker MD, Dr. Richard Passwater PhD, Dr. Michael Colgan Ph.D., Dr. Ray Strand MD and Dr. Michael Murray ND. MacWilliam drew an average from their recommendations to create a ‘Blended Score’.
Only multi-vitamin mineral products were compared in this survey -- a product’s percentage of the Blended Score is shown below.
Of the 504 products compared, Usana Health Sciences ESSENTIALS topped the list.
♦ Dr. Gerald & Dr.Monica Lewis:

♦ Lynese L. Lawson, DO
“It is becoming increasingly clear amongst scientists and health-care providers that nutritional supplementation plays a key role in achieving optimum health. All nutritional supplements are not created equal; my recommendation is the USANA products. The USANA products have been formulated as a result of years of cellular research by Dr. Myron Wentz and they have been engineered to provide optimal nutritional support at the cellular level. It is prudent that we become proactive and protect our health … it is much more difficult to try and regain it once we have lost it.” Lynese L. Lawson, DO is a Board Certified Anesthesiologist
♦ Dr. Michael Colgan.
"In my more than 20 years in nutrition researches I’ve not seem a wellness program as impressive as that developed by Myron Wentz." "Medical science is still stuck in the past; examining the effects of one or two simple antioxidants such as beta carotene and vitamin C. However, over the last decade hundred of antioxidants have been found. All of them have specific functions… You can’t just give someone vitamin C for a cold because antioxidants only work properly when they’re in synergy with each other. Vitamin C needs all of the other antioxidants to work to its potential." Dr. Michael Colgan, is a world renowned Sports Nutritionist, and author of the best-selling book, "Optimum Sports Nutrition."
♦ Dr. Jeffrey Greenberg,
"The first rule of medicine is to do no harm. I feel that the USANA products and its organization are the embodiment of free enterprise and scientific integrity. The antioxidant nutritional research and products being brought forth by this company, along with a strict observance of quality control, I believe has the potential to open up new horizons to the neurologically impaired patient, who otherwise had little or no hope." Dr. Jeffrey Greenberg, M.D.is a Neurological Surgeon
♦ Dr. David Warden,
"There’s no way to acquire optimal health today without nutritional supplementation. One of the things I have noticed from my own medical practice is that many patients are getting well by using nothing but nutrition." "Usana’s cellular technology is 15 years ahead of its time. I have personally lost more than 50 pounds with USANA products and I have seen significant improvement in many of my patients." David Warden, M.D. is a Former State Surgeon for the State of Utah
♦ Gary Young, D.C.
"I’ve seen hundreds of nutritional lines come across my desk in the last 20 years. Yet, none have so impressed me as Usana. The results I have seen are amazing. When the results are prove to be this good, the decision to use Usana is a given. Usana is firmly grounded in the most current scientific research and is producing extraordinarily positive results on the cellular level"
♦ Dr. Machiel Kennedy,
"In 17 years of practice, I have never seen or experienced anything like USANA! I am a board-certified family practitioner…I treat so many people during the cold and flu season who are sick and cough in my face that I end up being on antibiotics every three weeks or so. In February 1994, I began taking the USANA Nutritionals. I am happy to say that I made it through the cold season with not one major respiratory illness which required antibiotics."
