 How the 45% Discount Works
==> You receive 15% off the retail price of Usana vitamins and Sense' Skin Care products as a Preferred Customer + 10% off from USANA when you set up an Autoship order + 20% from me, your friendly neighborhood USANA Associate! :o)

==> After 30 days (Usana offers a 30-day money-back guarantee and I've unfortunately had a couple of people order $250 worth of products, receive a $50 check from me, and then turn around and receive a full refund from Usana), I will mail you a check for 20% of your order of USANA Vitamins and Sense' products (not including shipping & handling and taxes). Please note that you must set up an Autoship order to receive the 20% cashback reward from me.


==> This "20% cashback" offer applies to your first order for USANA Vitamins and Sense' skin care products only, although as a USANA Preferred Customer you will continue to receive 25% off retail on all subsequent orders as long as you maintain an Autoship account.

==> There is a $50 limit to the amount of the cashback, i.e., $250 worth of products (20% of $250 = $50)

==> This extra 20% cashback offer is made by me personally, not from USANA Corporate. 
You must set up an Autoship order to receive the 20% cashback reward.

==> If you are or ever have been an USANA Preferred Customer, Associate, or Distributor, you are not eligible for this Special Offer. Thank you.

USANA's Nutrition Update


Multivitamins protect against B1 deficiency and may decrease severity of congestive heart failure.

More than one-third of heart patients hospitalized for heart failure are deficient in thiamin (vitamin B1). Regular use of a multivitamin can protect against thiamin deficiency and may reduce the severity of congestive heart failure.


It has been recently reported that approximately one out of three patients hospitalized with heart failure have deficient levels of thiamin, also known as vitamin B1. The cause and effect relationships are complex. Congestive heart failure patients may be at increased risk for thiamin deficiency due to increased urine thiamin excretion, disease severity, malnutrition, and advanced age. In turn, thiamin deficiency itself may worsen existing heart failure.

Researchers measured thiamin levels among 100 heart failure patients and compared them with measurements of 50 healthy subjects. They found a deficiency of the vitamin in 33 percent of the heart failure patients compared to 12 percent of those without the disease.

It has been observed that heart failure may increase the body's need for certain nutrients, so even individuals with healthy diets may still come up short on vitamin B1. Researchers noted that a relatively small dose of thiamin from a multivitamin was protective against developing thiamin deficiency and may decrease disease severity in those with congestive heart failure.

21 April 2006: Canadian study indicates that quality of nutritional supplements is still a concern
In a new study, researchers discovered that more than half of the nutritional supplements tested did not disintegrate properly. Included in the test were 39 tablets and 10 capsules containing minerals and vitamins commercially available on the Canadian market. USANA's Multimineral was included in the test. The first disintegration stage was performed using Simulated Intestinal Fluid (SIF) pH 6.8 for 20 minutes. Products which did not disintegrate were further analyzed using USP disintegration conditions for dietary supplements. Of the 39 tablets tested, only 18 products (which included Usana's Multimineral) disintegrated fully at the first stage. The 21 tablets that did not pass the first stage were then tested for disintegration using USP conditions. Nine tablets still failed to disintegrate, including all three timed-release products tested. Forty-percent of the capsules also failed the first stage, although all ten eventually passed when subjected to USP testing conditions.

This study illustrates that disintegration, one basic indicator of product quality, is still a concern for dietary supplements.

22 March 2006: CoEnzyme Q10 protects nerve cells
Cells in the brain and nervous system depend on optimal mitochondrial function for energy. A recent study in the journal Neurobiology of Disease showed that oxidative stress causes mitochondria to produce excessive free radicals, leading to nerve cell damage and destruction. Due to its function in the mitochondrial energy process and its role as an antioxidant, researchers evaluated CoEnzyme Q10 for its ability to protect nerve cells.

The results of this study revealed that CoEnzyme Q10 inhibits the production of free radicals by the mitochondria and stabilizes the mitochondrial membrane when nerve cells are subjected to oxidative stress. CoEnzyme Q10 may therefore have a potential benefit in reducing the risk of various neurodegenerative diseases.

$91,800 is the average yearly income for an established, full-time USANA Associate (Gold Director and above). $23,225 is the annual average of those who earned as little as one commission check each month. Surveys show that 83% of all Associates self-report they joined USANA to "improve their health." Of those remaining, 21% earned a check at least once a month even though 56% reported they were not joining to "replace their full-time income." Of those that were, 41% have been Associates for at least one year and 56% are considered full time with the title of Gold Director or above. These figures shown should not be considered as guarantees or projections of your actual earnings or profits. Success with USANA results only from successful sales efforts, which require hard work, diligence, and leadership. If you include all 126,146 with the title of Associate, which includes, Associates not actively building a business (acting as wholesale buyers), Associates who just joined (as little as one day), and those who are just beginning to build their customer base, the average yearly income is still $734.27, with more than one in three earning a check.
