HOW IS YOUR HEALTH?

Someone comes up to you and asks, “How's your health?”

“OK,” you most likely reply. Meaning: I catch colds easily, sleep poorly, don't seem to have much energy. And the older I get the more scared I get about my ticker failing. Or getting the Big C.

Wouldn't you rather respond: “NO WORRIES! I FEEL GREAT!”

The difference in these two answers comes from adequate exercise, drinking plenty of good water - and making sure that your body gets the precise mix of 59 nutrients it needs for optimal health every day - including 13 vitamins and 22 minerals.

I know, I know. There are a lot of vitamin companies out there making a lot of claims. Most of them are throwing together the cheapest ingredients, fillers, and even caffeine to try cashing in on a booming $30 billion market. Very few supplement companies run their own internationally-renowned research labs probing the secrets of cellular health and longevity. And less than a handful voluntarily submit to rigorous pharmaceutical-grade certification of their plants and processes.

That's why, after this 40 year veteran investigative reported tried other top brands and submitted USANA to the same rigorous research and scrutiny I apply to any story, I chose USANA for my own daily supplement.

It turned out to be a good call. After independent testing by the Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements all, only one company has received the highest ranking for a nutritional supplement in North America: The company whose name means “Perfect Health.

“My family has never been healthier since starting on USANA products. We truly are 'products of the products'.”

ARE YOU EATING PROPERLY?
Many people say, "I don't need vitamins. I'll just eat well." Yet, after surveying 22,000 Americans, the U.S. Department of Agriculture discovered that only three people in a hundred actually eat balanced meals every day.

Even this three-in-a-hundred chance at adequate nutrition is not enough. Because soils saturated with three artificial fertilizers derived from left-over chemical weapons have been leached of the selenium, chromium, calcium, magnesium, iron, copper iodine, molybdenum, zinc, cobalt, boron and vanadium needed by your body's 50 trillion or more cells for optimal daily functioning.

Just two examples: In 1948, a bowl of spinach contained about 150 milligrams of iron. Today that serving has about 2 milligrams. Peas cooked fresh from your garden lose 56% of their vitamins. Frozen peas lose 83%. And canned peas lose 94% of their nutritional value.

“CELLULAR NUTRITION” DOES NOT MEAN FEEDING YOUR PHONE
Since health and disease are determined by the trillions of cells in our body, impairment of cell function and loss of energy at the cellular level due to missing essential vitamins, minerals, amino acids and trace elements lead quickly to “dis-ease”.

Understanding this, says MD Matthias Rath, it's obvious that supplements “will allow us to largely eradicate heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure, and heart failure” - along with a “variety of today's most common health conditions.”

How cool is that?

Many doctors think it's waaay cool. A recent Healthcare Professionals Impact Study found, “More than three-quarters of U.S. physicians and nurses recommend dietary supplements to their patients.” [nutraceuticalsworld.com]

“We have the confidence that these things really do work,” said Dr. Jeffrey Blumberg the Director of Antioxidant Research at the USDA Human Nutrition research Center.

That was 14 years ago.

Today, Michael Colgan, the PhD who literally wrote the book on The New Nutrition, calls vitamin and mineral supplementation, “a revolution in health.”

VITAMIN POWER!
Millions of people have joined in. In 2007, 68% of American adults said they take dietary supplements. More than half of adult Americans describe themselves as 'regular' users of dietary supplement products. As clinical trials of supplements continues, and an aging population worldwide focuses more on taking immediate responsibility for their health, these figures are expected to rise.

Even skeptical MDs are changing their professional opinions regarding the value of vitamin and mineral supplementation. "Until quite recently it was taught that everyone in this country gets enough vitamins through their diet and that taking supplements just creates expensive urine. I think we now have proof that this isn't true," says Dr. Walter Willett of Harvard

“I now know that many of the pronouncements I heard about the uselessness of vitamins simply aren't true,” writes Dr. Art Ulene in The Vitamin Strategy. “According to new research, optimal doses of vitamins and minerals can improve the state of your health and reduce your chance of developing many diseases and disorders once considered to be almost unavoidable."

The Cleveland Clinic's Chief Wellness Officer, MD Michael Roizen simply says, “I take a vitamin and mineral supplement as an insurance policy against a less than perfect diet."

SAFETY FIRST
How risky is taking vitamins for good health?

"As for the safety of supplements,” Representative Dan Burton told the Committee on Government Reform regarding the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act, “106,000 people die a year from prescription drugs.”

Versus zero people leaving the planet prematurely - but probably quite a few sticking around longer and enjoying life more - after taking recommended doses of high-quality supplements.

While “certain vitamins supplied in isolation can result in other nutritional deficiencies, and many micronutrients can be toxic at excessive or imbalanced levels,” the USANA website warns, “USANA painstakingly designed the Essentials to allow components to work together both safely and effectively.”

That means, balanced and adequate doses for all age groups.

“You can't argue with results. We count the USANA products as our blessings from God,” enthuse Emerald Directors, Helen and Jon Yoshihara. “From head to toe, inside and out, we trust USANA products.

“Joining USANA has truly been one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life!" says Dr. Stephie Althouse.

The impressive research USANA conducts results in products that work incredibly well - I feel it in my own body every day and I see and hear it from many others. I truly believe that USANA is the best network marketing company on the planet because the products are always first!
