We Can Help You Start Smart



We all need a fresh start sometimes.

USANA MySmart™Start helps you get back on the path to a healthy, happy lifestyle.

The seven-day MySmartStart Kit is the fresh start you need to nudge you back on course. Your fitness journey will be propelled by a week’s supply of simple, beneficially balanced MySmart™Shakes and MySmart™Bars—two each, per day. And you’ll get to eat three servings each of fruits and vegetables, and one low-glycemic meal per day.

But if you have a longer fitness journey ahead, the Transform Phase will help you experience the change you’re looking for. It reinforces the new habits you’ve developed over your first week, locking them in for lasting results. You’ll follow the same regimen as the MySmartStart Phase, and increase your exercise to a level you’re comfortable with.

Once your transformation is complete, the Maintain Phase helps you continue down the path of good health. One MySmartShake, one MySmartBar, and two low-glycemic meals support your new, healthier lifestyle with a beneficial ratio of macronutrients.

Everybody’s path is different. That’s why MySmartStart is flexible, allowing you to personalize your journey.

So no matter what your path looks like, we’ll be there to help you cross your personal finish line.

OSTEOARTHRITIS SYMPTOMS IMPROVE WITH REGULAR WALKING & GLUCOSAMINE SULFATE SUPPLEMENTS



The results of a clinical trial published in Arthritis Research and Therapy suggest that supplementing with glucosamine and taking regular walks can improve pain, physical function, and overall activity levels in adults with mild to moderate knee or hip osteoarthritis.


Thirty-six low-activity participants (aged 42 to 73 years) were provided with 1500 mg glucosamine sulfate per day for 6 weeks. At the end of six weeks, the participants began a 12-week progressive walking program (while continuing to take glucosamine.)

Study subjects were given a pedometer to monitor step counts. They were then randomized into two groups – one to walk 3 days per week, the other to walk 5 days per week. The length of the walk was gradually increased over the course of the program, with 6000 per day being the goal by the end of the 12-week period. Physical activity levels, physical function, and arthritis symptoms were analyzed at the beginning and at 6, 12, 18 and 24 weeks.

Physical activity levels, physical function, and pain assessment scores improved during the first 6 weeks of the study (glucosamine supplementation only.) Between the start of the walking program (week 6) and the final follow-up (week 24), further improvements were seen, though most improvements happened between weeks 6 and 12. No significant differences were observed between participants who participated in the 3 and 5 day per week programs.

In people with mild to moderate hip or knee osteoarthritis, walking a minimum of 3,000 steps (approximately 30 minutes) at least 3 days per week, in combination with glucosamine sulfate, may reduce some symptoms of osteoarthritis.

USANA Takes Home Two Major Awards at the 2016 DSA Annual Meeting

News Release

Recognized for Philanthropic Efforts and Net Sales Ranking

SALT LAKE CITY, June 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- USANA is proud to announce that its charitable organization — the USANA True Health Foundation (THF) — was presented the Vision for Tomorrow award in the philanthropy category at the 2016 Direct Selling Association (DSA) annual meeting. The global nutritional company was also named to the Top 20 list of direct selling companies by the DSA — which is based on its 2015 U.S. net sales and is open exclusively to DSA members. USANA was also named to the Top 20 list in 2013 and 2014.



"The USANA True Health Foundation is thrilled to receive the Vision of Tomorrow award as it inspires our organization to continue the work it's doing to relieve suffering and hunger around the world," said Deb Jordan, president of the USANA True Health Foundation. "Through donations, our worldwide programs are aimed at providing critical necessities — nutrition, clothing, shelter, medical assistance and health education."

In March 2012, USANA launched the THF, a nonprofit organization that provides help to those in need all over the world. This past year, USANA's True Health Foundation accomplished the following:

Provided $600,000 in meals across Eastern Europe, Asia, Australia, Latin America, Haiti, Nepal and the United States.

Supplied $225,000 in disaster aid, vaccines and water purification tablets to Malaysia, the Philippines and victims of the earthquakes in Nepal.

Distributed $87,192 in materials to help rebuild fishing boats to those affected by Typhoon Yolanda.

"USANA creates economic opportunities for thousands of Americans," said Joseph N. Mariano, DSA's president. "I want to congratulate their team for their devotion to customers and salespeople, as well as for the work they do with the DSA in support of an ethical marketplace.  Sales don't just happen; they are earned by companies like USANA that build the trust and inspire the confidence of consumers."

Over the last few years, USANA has seen incredible global financial growth, with the company recently reporting its 13th consecutive year of record sales and earnings. Net sales for 2015 increased by an unbelievable 16.2 percent to a record $918.5 million. USANA looks to continue the outstanding financial growth in the future and to become a mainstay on the DSA Top 20 list.

META-ANALYSIS SUPPORTS THE CONSUMPTION OF OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS TO REDUCE BLOOD PRESSURE



AT A GLANCE: 

An analysis of 70 trials reveals that omega-3 use may be as effective at reducing blood pressure as significant lifestyle changes, and that even small reductions in blood pressure can have a significant clinical impact and could be the difference between having to take medication to control blood pressure.



Nearly 6 out of 10 American adults have elevated blood pressure, which is linked to an increased risk of strokes, coronary heart disease, and total mortality. A meta-analysis published in the American Journal of Hypertension analyzed 70 trials to determine the effect of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on blood pressure.

Weighted differences were used to separate individuals into an EPA+DHA group and a placebo group. All of the studies combined resulted in a 1.52 mm Hg reduction in systolic blood pressure and a 0.99 mm Hg reduction in diastolic blood pressure for the EPA+DHA group over the placebo group. Additional data was used to further separate these into subgroups for additional analysis. This revealed even stronger effects of EPA+DHA, where a 4.51 mm Hg reduction in systolic blood pressure and a 3.05 mm Hg reduction in diastolic blood pressure were observed among untreated hypertensive subjects.

These results continue to build on prior evidence showing that omega-3 fatty acids may play a role in helping individuals control their blood pressure. One of the authors, Dominik Alexander, PhD, noted that “when measuring blood pressure, even small reductions can have a significant clinical impact.” He continues to note that these small differences could be the difference between having to take medication to control blood pressure. A 2 mm Hg reduction in blood pressure reduces stroke mortality by 6%, coronary heart disease mortality by 4%, and total mortality by 3%. In untreated hypertensive individuals, where the EPA and DHA were most effective, EPA+DHA treatment was as effective, or more effective, at lowering blood pressure than increasing physical activity and restricting alcohol and sodium.

What does it mean by “opt-in”? USANA allows all Associates to work towards achieving our yearly incentive trip. By opting-in you are simply alerting USANA you are working towards the trip, so we can track your progress and alert you when you have reached certain point milestones. However, you MUST Opt-in in order to actually win the trip.  Once you opt in—and everyone has to opt in—we will track your growth in Commission Volume Points (CVP) from July 4, 2015, to July 1, 2016. We will compare that to your CVP growth over the previous year.

Also, by opting-in allows this you and your team the opportunity to track your progress and achieve your goals. PLUS, if you achieve your goals and qualify for the trip – you get to spend time in the sun and have fun with your USANA Team. Additionally, USANA will be sending out a customized email to those Associates who have opted-in to show progress and help you and your teams plan for the rest of the qualification period.

We have 4 weeks left in the qualification for the Success on the Beach trip.

You’re building your business. You’re advancing. Your commission checks are growing. We’ve noticed all the hard work you’re putting in. That’s why we’d like to reward you or your team members with a trip to the Leadership Summit.

USANA Receives Seal of Approval for Joint Health Supplement

News Release

Procosa Passes Testing by ConsumerLab.com

SALT LAKE CITY, June 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Creating products aimed to improve the health and wellness of the world is the mantra of USANA Health Sciences — and having those products contain pure ingredients with accurate labels is equally important. Which is why USANA considers a seal of approval from third-party tester ConsumerLab.com to be so important. The latest USANA supplement to be approved by ConsumerLab.com is Procosa, formulated to help maintain healthy cartilage and joints.*




"Receiving this third-party seal of approval from ConsumerLab.com shows our customers that we truly care about the quality of our products," says Dan Macuga, USANA's chief communications officer. "USANA continues to create products that are proven to have accurate and truthful labels. I am very proud to be part of a company that works so hard to produce only the best supplements on the market."

ConsumerLab.com is an independent assessor of the quality, purity and label accuracy of health and wellness products, putting each item through rigorous testing. To be awarded a seal of approval from ConsumerLab.com, USANA's Procosa supplement had to contain 100 percent of the claimed amount of glucosamine used to keep joints and cartilage strong and healthy, and to meet quality levels set for lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury.

"We take a lot of pride in the supplements we create, so receiving accreditation from an independent organization such as ConsumerLab.com validates what we do here," says USANA's executive director of product development and technology, Dr. John Cuomo. "Procosa is USANA's feature joint-health supplement containing glucosamine, vitamin C and Meriva® bioavailable curcumin complex to help sustain joint and cartilage fitness."

Along with Procosa, several other USANA supplements have been recently certified by ConsumerLab.com, including Visionex, CoQuinone 30, Active Calcium, Vitamin D, Pure Rest, USANA® Probiotic, USANA® Essentials™, Usanimals, BabyCare Prenatal Essentials and Body Rox.
