USANA Products Combat Eroding Health

USANA Health Sciences has become one of America's leading
companies in the field of health and nutrition. The two main reasons are: (1) a superior
product line that you can always trust, and (2) an innovative network marketing program
that amply rewards both the average and ambitious Distributor.
Company founder Myron
Wentz, Ph.D., is a world-renowned pioneer in cell-culture technology. In the early
70s, he founded Gull Laboratories, which soon became the world's leading producer of
commercially-available diagnostic test kits for viruses. While Gull played a critical
role in the world health arena, Dr. Wentz always felt that disease prevention was as
important as detection.
He and other scientists were finding that our environment,
lifestyle, and diet factors were continually eroding our health. One of the most significant
research findings has been the value of antioxidants in countering the negative effect
of "free radicals" in the human body. Free radicals are believed to be the cause of many
degenerative diseases, and spawn from a variety of factors including pollution, high-fat
diets, lack of exercise, and smoking.
Today, USANA's products are on the leading edge of providing
adequate cell-level nutrition, fiber, and antioxidant protection for our bodies. Dr. Wentz
is applying the same level of scientific expertise, technical brilliance, and dedication
he employed in pioneering viral diagnostics to create breakthrough approaches to nutritional
wellness.
