Choosing the Life You Want to Live

Dr. Myron Wentz who is an internationally recognized microbiologist, immunologist and infectious disease diagnoses founded USANA Health Sciences in 1992. Wentz served as an infectious diseases specialist; and after three years of clinical experience, he saw an opportunity to make a deeper contribution to medical science by developing much-needed tests for viral diseases. In his clinical studies, Wentz discovered that if we grew cells with all of the essential nutrients and they were protected against any toxins, the cells were free from degeneration. Wentz’s passion transitioned from detecting diseases, to creating optimal health for everyone around him.

At a recent YACC Leads 2 presentation, Keri Gaul, an independent distributor for USANA Health Sciences explained that Dr. Wentz was shocked with the low-quality vitamins and nutritional supplements on the market, along with a panel of nutritional experts, Wentz created the most balanced, most potent vitamins and supplements available today. Gaul explained that USANA is 100% guaranteed and uses the best ingredients in the right combinations allowing your body to readily absorb it’s vitamins and minerals. USANA is the only nutritional company that offers the athlete guarantee program and is of pharmaceutical quality.

USANA compliments all walks of life through health and wealth. It is impracticable to think that you receive all the vitamins and minerals your body requires through your daily diet. Our quality of life is no longer there; and diseases such as diabetes and cancer are much more frequent than ten years ago. By giving our bodies the proper vitamins and minerals, we can help protect ourselves from these man-made diseases. USANA has been named the global leader in nutritional supplements and have raised the bar so high, that even professional athletes trust the name.
