[ Message from Dave Wentz ]
Awareness and Avoidance
M
y father has always given me very useful and insightful advice. From very early in my childhood, he taught me that tangible, personal actions are what make a real difference in the world. And if individual efforts weren’t enough to bring about change, he would say, “Well, you could always write a book.” Writing a book was never a goal for me, but when I welcomed my son into the world, I had to come to terms with a new and sobering responsibility—to keep my family safe from harm. I had long been concerned about our unnecessary exposure to hidden environmental dangers— toxic chemicals, manmade electromagnetic fields, unforeseen side effects and more—but my concern quickly grew into a true passion as I thought about my child facing these dangers. We live in a world where our governing agencies don’t have the time or means to regulate every toxin that surrounds us; where medical professionals choose to ignore dangerous materials until they reveal their toxicity as degenerative disease; where regular people don’t realize there are issues with the way they live until it’s too late. So I decided to take my father’s advice and write a book that would enable people to avoid these dangers, or, at the very least, be aware of their impact. Together, Dr. Wentz and I wrote The Healthy Home, which is premised on two simple words—awareness and avoidance. By educating ourselves about the hidden dangers of everyday things that we
4
USANA Health Sciences Volume 2 2011
“It turns out I don’t need estrogen therapy anymore.

It is with this knowledge that all of us can improve our chances for long-term health and ensure the future well-being of our families. The most important message of The Healthy Home is how easily we can remove—or at least lessen—toxins in the home. We aim to offer hope that even small changes, when added up over many years, can make an incredible difference in the health of our families. Like USANA, this book is all about empowering people who want the best opportunity for a happy, healthier future. n Live well,

tasty and provide the nourishment your body needs. You know Sensé treats your skin and hair with luxurious botanicals that keep you looking and feeling fantastic. But there is more to being healthy than just taking and using your USANA products every day. The Healthy Home is your guide to the other ways you can be healthier, starting with the place you spend most of your time—the home. Dr. Wentz and Dave Wentz reveal the shocking health risks posed by the products and behaviors we take for granted every day, and provide simple solutions to help minimize your family’s exposure to these dangers. The following pages contain an exclusive first look at just a fraction of the information you’ll find in The Healthy Home. How will you use this knowledge to keep you and your family healthy?

Fact:
Until 2005, the synthetic foam used in mattresses was typically saturated in highly toxic fire-retardant chemicals called polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). These global pollutants, still in many home electronics, build up in the blood and tissues of people and wildlife, affecting the brains and reproductive systems.
The Bedroom A tour of the bedroom reveals the truth behind the clothes in your closet, the chemicals in your mattress, the electromagnetic fields (EMFs) coming from the gadgets on your nightstand, and much more.
Dangerous Truth: Polyester is manufactured from petroleum products through a process that involves the use of a metal called antimony. Extended exposure to antimony can adversely affect the heart, digestive system, eyes, skin, and lungs.
Simple Solution: Make certain your body is wrapped in safe, natural materials for at least a third of the day by purchasing pajamas and bedding made from organic cotton.

The Bathroom Every morning, we venture into our bathroom to get ourselves ready for the day. But the chemicals and preservatives lurking in your personal care products can be damaging to your body.

Fact:
A recent analysis performed at the University of Michigan School of Public Health demonstrated that using soap containing triclosan is not more effective in preventing infectious illness than washing with plain soap.
Dangerous Truth: An estimated 10,500 different chemicals are used in cosmetics, skin care treatments, and other personal products. Some of these chemicals are nitrosamines, lead, and other heavy metals, parabens, phthalates, hydroquinone, and 1,4-dioxane— all very bad stuff.
Simple Solution: Avoid aerosol products that have nonspray alternatives. If you must use aerosols, open a window and run your bathroom fan.
Simple Solution: Open your windows—often.

Living Areas
Dangerous Truth:
We like to think about our homes as our own personal havens—our protection from the outside world. The Healthy Home points out that your surroundings may not be as pristine as you imagine.
In modern homes, the low level of pollution from outside air is pumped inside and concentrated with the fumes from the hundreds of products we use inside. The air we’re breathing while indoors is usually two to five times more polluted than outdoor air.
USANA Health Sciences Volume 2 2011
The Kitchen Food is an integral part of keeping the body healthy. But are you getting the nutrients your body needs? The answer may surprise you.
Dangerous Truth: When it comes to slicing and dicing produce, the greater the surface exposure you create, the more key minerals and antioxidants you will lose. Think about that sliced apple that browns when exposed to the air even before you can finish eating it.
Simple Solution: Preserve the nutritional value of your fruits and veggies by cubing them or simply eating them whole.

Baking soda is nature’s most versatile cleaning product, a natural substance that has been used around the world for nearly 150 years to remove odors, soften water, dissolve dirt and grime, scrub soap scum, and even unclog drains.

Fact:
According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG), a nonstick pan at just 680°F on a regular electric stove released at least six toxic gases, including two carcinogens, two global pollutants, and a chemical that is known to be lethal to humans. www.USANA.com

The Garage & Yard
Dangerous Truth:
They may be outside your living area, but your garage and yard can still be unhealthy and cause you harm. Taking a few extra, conscious steps to clean up the area around your home can help you keep your lawn looking great, your garage safe, and your family healthy.
Each year, homeowners apply at least ninety million pounds of pesticides to their lawns and gardens. And much of this chemical poison doesn’t stay outside where we put it. Pesticides applied on residential lawns migrate indoors.
218
Fact:
Numerous studies have found that homes with attached garages have higher levels of air pollutants—including benzene and carbon monoxide—than homes with no garage or a separate garage.
Simple Solution: Rather than poison your garden, lawn, or orchard with pesticides, why not try a simpler, healthier solution? Plant lemon basil with your tomato plants for example, and you get a combined benefit of better tasting tomatoes while keeping whiteflies away. A peppermint plant will keep ants and mice away.

Protecting Your Health. Protecting the Future.
t
By Dr. Myron Wentz
here is no doubt: our toxic world is taking a toll on our health and the health of our children. As many of you already know, my major concern about the world today is the almost exponential rise of degenerative diseases we’ve seen in the last 50 years. And our younger generations are the most threatened. Contributing to these diseases affecting our world are our exposures to toxic influences—such as synthetic chemicals, toxic metals, and radiations— and the over-consumption of processed foods with little or no nutritional value and loads of unpronounceable chemicals and preservatives. We must begin to reduce the burden of toxic substances in the cells of our bodies— especially in the bodies of our children. We must do what we can to inform the world about the steps they must take to ensure a healthy future. And that is what Dave and I wanted to accomplish with The Healthy Home. The Healthy Home’s role is to show you that it is possible for you to remove or eliminate the toxins in your home—the place where you feel most comfortable and where you spend most of your time. With this book, you can seek safe alternatives to toxic household products. You can select products free of the compounds that can affect immunity or the nervous system, or play a role in cancer and other health problems. You can avoid toxins by selecting natural vs. synthetic, and remove toxins by filtering, diluting, or ventilating. In The Healthy Home, we have solutions you can adopt to protect yourself and your family. Photography by Joachim Guanzon of Aesonica.com
Before you can practice avoidance though, you have to be aware of the threat. This book is also a source of knowledge about all the ways toxins can enter the body. We need to become conscious of the potential of toxins being in almost everything we breathe, from perfumes to air fresheners; everything we eat and drink, from processed foods to tap water; and everything we expose our skin to, from cosmetics to tattoos. And we need to be especially vigilant about what our children are exposed to—even before they are conceived. We can effectively reduce our toxic burden, but first we have to become knowledgeable. This book is that first, most important step. The Healthy Home is not only a source of information for you about how to get the proper nutrition from the foods you eat so you can begin the process of creating a healthier body from the inside out, but also a guide to help you 10

work on making your home healthier at the same time…from the outside in.
“Each solution you take from The Healthy Home and apply to your daily life will help you protect yourself and your family from the environmental hazards that surround us.” What we are advocating in The Healthy Home are lifestyle changes. Some of them are easy fixes. Some are more difficult. But each solution you take from the book and apply to your daily life will help you protect yourself and
your family from the environmental hazards that surround us. Reading this book is the best way for you to start protecting yourself with a greater sense of awareness about the dangerous substances that surround us all. It will provide you with a basic overall view of the world we live in today. It will give you a grasp of the scale of the problem and how you can get started finding remedies. It will help you take an active role in protecting your family from environmental hazards of all kinds. And once you accept responsibility for your health and begin to take action, there is no telling what positive effects you might have. Remember, without good health, it can be difficult to enjoy life, no matter how well off you may be financially. Good health gives you freedom. Don’t let the toxic world we live in today poison your life and the lives of future generations. This book is our gift to you. Read The Healthy Home, and may you live well. n
he world is your prospecting wilderness. A vast expanse of uncharted, unexplored, untapped experience awaits. Take that step out your front door and inhale the fresh air of opportunity and excitement. Of course, it’s not always a transcendent experience for those who explore new territory. Often the prospecting wilderness feels more punishing than pristine, more severe than serene, more stressful than restful.
So when you venture out into the prospecting wilderness with your newest gear—The Healthy Home— there are some steps you can take to use the book to transform that land of snares, dead ends, and obstacles back into a majestic span, flush with hidden potential and fulfillment.

You must become your own sales tool, because there’s nothing more impressive than chatting with people who know exactly what they’re talking about. That knowledge breeds confidence in even the most skeptical prospects. Eventually, that confidence begets trust.
Out in the prospecting wilderness it might seem like you’re alone, without a friend for miles. But if you’ve taken the time to prepare, you’ll have the most important companion of all— knowledge. It’s true that you already have a backpack full of tools—good, topof-the-line tools—to help pass along knowledge about the importance of nutrition at the cellular level, which is the basis for USANA’s high-quality products. The Healthy Home is another one of those tools. But before heading out into the untamed frontier for a day spent prospecting, it’s important for you to internalize the information provided in the book so you can take that knowledge with you wherever you go.
The information in The Healthy Home isn’t about USANA. But by focusing on science and cellular truths, and providing solutions for the health of prospects and their families, the book becomes aligned with the goals of USANA’s products perfectly. Furthermore, the knowledge you can acquire from a book written by a worldrenowned microbiologist, Dr. Myron Wentz, and the CEO of a half-a-billion dollar nutritional supplement company, Dave Wentz, can’t be overlooked. The Healthy Home can help make you, if not an expert, then at least a trusted resource for your prospects. When you reach the point of being a knowledgeable, trusted source of healthful and helpful information, the transition to USANA products will be more like a step over a peaceful creek, rather than a blind leap over a swollen, raging river.
• Read the book several times. • Start your own book club, or suggest it for one you’re already in.
12
USANA Health Sciences Volume 2 2011
You wouldn’t venture into nature and just wander aimlessly. Before heading out very far, you spread the crinkled map out on to the floor and pick out points, target areas of interest, and then pack up your gear and explore. The prospecting wilderness is no different. You target your message and focus your energy on areas of interest so you don’t spend too much time wandering and yelling into the clear blue sky.
• As you read, note friends and family who might be interested in each subject. • Invite people to talk about the book and the changes they’ve made.
When using The Healthy Home, targeting your prospects is of even greater importance. As far as your prospecting gear goes, the book can be one of the most effective items in your backpack, but it’s also one of the most expensive tools at your disposal. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t give The Healthy Home out to prospects. Far from it. The book is a substantial, impressive, informative, and interesting piece. It can be very effective. But to be cost-effective, you’ll need to be more targeted—more selective.
An Expert’s Take “With this book in your hand, with a caring, loving, scientific look at awareness and avoidance, the whole world is finally going to know who Dr. Wentz is. What a marvelous opportunity to show and talk to others about the vision of Dr. Wentz.” —Patti Roney Ruby Director, Million Dollar Club member, 2009 Vision Award Winner
Give the book to people who are interested in home design or the environment. Talk about it with parents or grandparents who seem invested in their family’s long-term health. Or use it as your ace in the hole—to help an interested prospect learn more about the visionaries behind your company. Mapping out your use of The Healthy Home can help you find the best trail out of the prospecting wilderness to help you reach the grand vistas atop the mountain of USANA success.
Often the weather that blows in upon the prospecting wilderness turns temperamental. When the cold rain of doubt beats down, you need only seek the shelter of credibility. As USANA Associates, you have the luxury of having plenty of raw materials to build your business’ credibility—Dr. Wentz’ vision, world-class products, solid science, quality manufacturing, to name a few. Now The Healthy Home provides you with more credibility to build your shelter from any negativity that may come your way.
• Use press mentions of the book. • Start Facebooking about the success of The Healthy Home.

An Expert’s Take “Books are in a special category, because they have the power to change somebody’s life. Sometimes a sentence or a thought or a story, an idea, a technique, a strategy that’s shared in a book can transform someone’s life. When you ask somebody, ‘Have you ever read a book that changed your life?’ almost everyone you talk to is going to say yes.”
When the founder and CEO of the company you are associated with release a book through a major publisher— especially if that book happens to be a best seller—it lends credibility to their other work. Use that credibility to forge new paths with prospective customers.
—Robert Allen 3-Star Diamond Director, Million Dollar Club member, Fortune 25 member
Adaptability is essential in nature. Adaptability is about accepting new circumstances and making the most of them. The Healthy Home brings with it exciting new opportunities for you and
your business—if you are able to adapt. Possibly the most exciting of these opportunities is another way for you to talk about Dr. Wentz’ vision, and the products that sprung from it. At its core, The Healthy Home is focused around the same thing USANA is—spreading health around the world. The message of the book allows you to show just how important health is to Dr. Wentz, Dave, and USANA as a whole. The Healthy Home strengthens the story you already tell about USANA’s focus on health. It also gives you another way to start a conversation about the company’s mission, Dr. Wentz’ vision, nutritional supplements, and why you are proud to call yourself a USANA Associate. On top of the message of The Healthy Home, you can talk about something that speaks louder than words— Dr. Wentz and Dave’s decision to contribute all their proceeds from the book to Children’s Hunger Fund (CHF). Their generosity shows their commitment to helping CHF feed starving children around the globe. All of this paints a very clear picture of what USANA is really about.
• Tweet and blog about your experiences with The Healthy Home and about making healthier choices for your family.

USANA Health Sciences Volume 2 2011
No matter how much you use the book in your prospecting, the widespread — exposure Dave and Dr. Wentz —receive from and thus USANA The Healthy Home will warm up your cold market. People will be more familiar with the Wentz name, and more receptive to hear about what USANA is all about. Also, the amount of press attention the book has already garnered will crank up the heat of your cold market a few extra degrees. These press mentions give prospects a frame of reference for your conversations about USANA. Maybe they saw Dave and Dr. Wentz on television, or in their newspaper, or on a blog. Whatever the medium may be, there will be a measure of familiarity there, which means you won’t be starting from scratch.
The bitter cold is the enemy of any wilderness excursion. But there’s good news for those heading out into the prospecting wilderness: The Healthy Home is bringing warming rays of sunshine to cut through the cold you may be feeling.
So let The Healthy Home warm up the often-cold prospecting wilderness. Let it help you enjoy the potential that awaits in the places and people you encounter on your prospecting adventures. With The Healthy Home, turn that world of wilderness into the tranquil nature preserve nestled between you and the towering peaks of success. n

HEALTH & HOPE: R ural villages across the globe or just down the street—you never truly know where children are going without the basic necessities. But Children’s Hunger Fund (CHF) works tirelessly to change that reality.
CHF was created by founder Dave Phillips in 1991, and the organization’s mission has always been strong and resolute—provide proper nutritional support to children and others who might be lacking the ability to do so for themselves. Since then, CHF has evolved into an organization that touches every corner of the earth.
From Bookshelves to Children Written by Suzanne Houghton
we will be able to provide food assistance, nutritional supplementation, and other much needed services to children around the globe. On “Because of the generosity of Dave and Dr. Wentz,
behalf of all those children whom the Wentzes will never meet, I say ‘thank you’ for helping us reduce the pain and suffering of children around the world. You are a tremendous blessing to us!”
—Dave Phillips CHF President & Founder
USANA Associates have always stepped up to the plate to help CHF. Whether it’s participating in the annual Children’s Hunger Run at USANA’s International Convention, giving time at various CHF warehouses across the country, or donating through USANA’s Autoship program, Associates are extremely dedicated to this cause. In fact, since forming a partnership with CHF in 2001, USANA, along with its generous Associates, have donated more than $11 million in products and financial assistance. Now, there’s a new opportunity to give to children in need. Every time you purchase a copy of The Healthy Home, you are doing your part in helping USANA and CHF provide life’s basic necessities to needy children around the globe, because Dave and Dr. Wentz are donating 100 percent of the author proceeds from the sales of the book to CHF.

A Million Reasons to Celebrate
Writen by Suzanne Houghton Stepping from the limo and into the brisk winter air, five of USANA’s newest Million Dollar Club members made their way up the red carpet and into USANA‘s home office in Salt Lake City on January 13, 2011. While the temperature outside was bitter cold, the atmosphere inside was electrifying. Walking in the front doors amid the applause of USANA employees, each new MDC member realized they had made it—this was the moment they were now officially part of the most prestigious club in USANA. This was the moment they could finally enjoy all their hard work. And this was the moment they would remember forever.
&
Sheila Xiao Nan Wang Dennis Chen
Dennis Chen and Sheila Xiao Nan Wang had been involved with other network marketing companies in the past, but USANA far surpasses any others. “USANA is a company that is completely different than anything I have ever experienced,” Dennis says. “USANA is all about health and helping people.” That positive thinking, coupled with their dedicated work ethic, has taken Dennis and Sheila to their current titles of 3-Star Diamond Directors and new MDC members, and they aren’t stopping anytime soon. “The future is unlimited,” they say. “While we don’t know what the future holds, we know it will definitely involve USANA.” With years of success to their names, Dennis and Sheila encourage others to always remember the power of the message they are sharing. “You must ask yourself if you believe this can change your future,” they say. “You must work hard and become a true believer. Believe this can change your life, because it can.”

Wei-Ching Ko and Jia-Chien Shieh were like many other USANA Associates
in the beginning. Pleasantly surprised by the products, they were interested in the company, but had little idea of the impact USANA would ultimately have in their lives. Now that they are Diamond Directors and MDC members, this couple knows their future is open to an array of opportunities. “We have grasped the trend of globalization and believe the future to be bright,” they say. Ko and Shieh are appreciative of those who have helped them along their journey. “The cooperation of our team enables us to break through limits and expand horizons,” they say. “We work with a group of like-minded people who take initiative and are willing to work together, and each one works to create unlimited team power.” These leaders from New Zealand are excited for all that the future holds. “USANA allows ordinary people the chance to reach their own summit and achieve the life of their dreams.”

That’s where USANA came in. “I realized USANA was going to help me achieve the health, freedom, and life that I had always dreamt about,” he says. Since 2001, Shen has worked tirelessly to help improve the lives of not only his friends and family, but also all those with whom he comes in contact. “I will share USANA’s vision and promote USANA’s products to the world in an effort to help more people achieve health and wealth,” he says. A Diamond Director and member of the MDC, Shen is humbled by the opportunities USANA has presented him with. “I consider myself lucky that I found the USANA products and that I was clever enough to devote my energies to this business,” he concludes.

my Nie had no idea how her life would change after being introduced to USANA. “Even though I related to the vision of USANA in the beginning, I didn’t know I could really get to where I am today, and so quickly,” she says. But now a Diamond Director and a member of the Growth 25, Amy isn’t just imagining a great future—she is living it. A loyal USANA product user, Amy really didn’t have any interest in becoming involved with network marketing. She liked the products and that’s where her interest, at least initially, ended. “I was a USANA consumer for six years and never really seriously considered making a USANA business for myself,” she says. But like many others, Amy eventually started to wonder if there was something she was missing out on, and she decided to let go of any preconceived notions she had about network marketing. That one decision opened an array of new possibilities in her life. Although she is one of USANA’s newest Diamond Directors, Amy started building her business just like any other Associate does. As she has gone from Gold, to Ruby, to Emerald, to Diamond, there have been several important business tips she has learned. “You must first believe in USANA and the products 100 percent,” she says. “Always be teachable and when you share USANA with others, you must have a sincere heart and always use love to lead your team.” “And you must always persevere,” she adds. That attitude of never giving up has really helped Amy through many of her advancements, particularly her advancement to Gold. “That has actually been the toughest part of my USANA career so far,” she says. “The whole process was challenging and I faced rejection along with trial and error.” But the lessons she learned during that time in her life have helped her become a stronger leader.
“USANA is like a school without limits.”
Amy’s success has truly been possible in part to her experiences, but she will also tell you it’s been her teammates who have helped her become the person she is. Leading a team of thousands is a tremendous responsibility, and it is one Amy takes seriously. “My team knows they have to be committed and this deserves their effort,” she says. “I hope, with this attitude, they can become successful.” Amy’s passion is apparent, but behind the desire to see her and her teammates succeed, you can easily see she truly loves helping others discover they too can become successful. “I have always loved helping others, and USANA has made it possible for me to do this,” she says. “Whether it is financial or having to do with their health, I am constantly helping.” And while she helps others, USANA in turn has done something special for Amy. Her parents passed away when Amy and her siblings were young, and although she has always remained emotionally attached to her sisters, she now gets to work with them each and every day. “I work with my two sisters, who are both Ruby Directors,” she says. “USANA has allowed us to work together, at an international level, like we had never been able to do before.” n
Written by Suzanne Houghton $93,000 is the average yearly income for an established, full-time USANA Associate. $24,500 is the annual average of those who earned as little as one commission check each month. Total includes all earnings from the Compensation Plan, Leadership Bonus, Matching Bonus, contests, and incentives. Calculations based on earnings for fiscal year 2009. Figures should not be considered as guarantees or projections of actual earnings, which result only from consistent, successful sales efforts. To be considered in a rank’s earnings, Associates must have earned checks at a median rank for at least 20 weeks. According to results from an in-house survey taken between 2004 and 2006, the primary reason 17% of USANA independent business owners join the company is to improve their financial future. 21% of that group earns a check at least once a month. Of those whose primary reason is to earn enough to replace a full-time income, 90% have been Associates for at least one year and 57% are full-time Gold Directors and above. The number of Gold Directors and above who have maxed at least 1 Business Center during the year equals less than 1% of all Associates. Those earning as little as one check a month equal approximately 3% of all Associates. If you include all 165,710 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 $616.71 with nearly one in three earning a check. To date, USANA has more than 140 Associates who are lifetime Million Dollar Club members.

Following Queeney’s advancement to Ruby Director, she decided to keep up her momentum after Convention to create her own personal breakthrough. She wrote down her goal of advancing to Emerald Director on a piece of paper and put the note on her refrigerator so it would always be in her view. “I knew it would be tough, but I also knew it was going to be possible if I had confidence, a good plan, and teamwork.” Queeney stresses although she knew she could do it, she couldn’t do it alone. “My team is the reason for my success. We all work very hard and motivate each other like a family, ” she says. In addition to the importance of teamwork, Queeney has learned many personal lessons about herself since becoming a USANA Associate. “I have experienced a lot of self-development,” she shares. “I am more patient, mature, stronger, and willing to help people.” Queeney’s motivation to help others stems from her background as a doctor, but now she’s even more motivated by USANA’s mission. “I love to share Dr. Wentz’ vision in hopes of improving the health of those I meet,” she says. Queeney draws strength and inspiration to keep working to expand her USANA business from her family and friends. “My kids, family, and team support me a lot and I am so grateful for them,” she concludes. n See income disclaimer on page 44.

riven by a strong desire to improve their own health and the health of others, Xuemei Chen and her husband, Weiping Zou, have achieved Emerald Director status with USANA by staying focused on their goals and working hard to maintain their strong and effective team.
After an initial struggle conversing with strangers, the former economics professor says she now effectively advocates for USANA’s products through word-of-mouth and is a strong networker. “I told myself this is a powerful company with a very good product. My goal is to spread the USANA gift to more people.” To make the leap to Emerald Directors, Chen says she and her husband worked to maintain their positive attitude, continually educated themselves about USANA’s products, and took decisive action. Chen says her roughly 500-member team’s steady hard work is also a vital key to the couple’s success. “My team loves and trusts USANA’s products as much as I do.” Chen also works with an overarching philosophy that effective Associates—including herself— are enthusiastic, tough, sharing, and cooperative. “My joy is built from the joy of others,” she says. “Teamwork is the key to success.” Chen is proud to have achieved Emerald Director status. “You can definitely accomplish your goal with good products plus patience and perseverance,” she says. “Go out and share with people. Learn while you are working. Persistence will lead you to success.” Even though she’s excited about her new standing in USANA, Chen says she and her husband have additional long-term goals that include becoming Diamond Directors and eventually training 10 Gold Directors in her organization. n *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Chen says she’s very motivated to share Dr. Wentz’ vision and has used USANA’s products since starting with the company in 2007. After taking USANA’s supplements, she says she and her husband enjoyed feeling better than they had in years.* “I truly believe in the quality and potency of USANA’s products and I can’t wait to tell others,” she says.

Rebecca Ah Ching Chai admits she didn’t know if network marketing was going to be the best fit for her. Rebecca witnessed various family members’ success, but she still experienced some self-doubt. “I didn’t think I was the right type of person to do network marketing. But on the other hand, I thought network marketing could be good for me,” she says. Rebecca received the confirmation she needed while attending International Convention last year. “I talked to so many people and, although everyone was different, they all had one thing in common,” she says. “They believed in themselves and knew they could do it.” With that realization, Rebecca went to work. One of USANA’s newest Ruby Directors, Rebecca encourages others to never let self-doubt get in the way of their potential. “Always dream big,” she says with a smile on her face. “As along as you keep moving in the right direction, you will get to where you want to be.”

And Rebecca is right where she wants to be. “I can now spend more time with my two boys and help in their school as well as do more volunteer work,” she says. “I couldn’t have accomplished my goals without the support of my teammates, specifically my sister, USANA 2-Star Diamond Director Ada Chai. Without her I wouldn’t be where I am today.” n

Ruby Director Lise Diamond is, self-admittedly, blessed. “I have been part of the USANA family for several years and this company means so much to me,” she says. “USANA has given me the chance to develop my potential, meet extraordinary people, and enrich myself through their friendship,” she says. Being at the 2010 International Convention provided Lise with the realization that it was time to take her business to the next level. “Several members of my team were there, and at that moment, we all fully understood the importance of sharing the mission and vision of Dr. Wentz with as many people as possible,” she says. While Lise has experienced many rewards from advancing to Ruby, she emphasizes it isn’t just her hard work that has paid off. “If this advancement were a trophy, everyone on my team would take turns sharing it because without each other we could not have accomplished it,” she says. One of the greatest blessings Lise has received from this particular advancement has been seeing the passion in her teammates. “I see the spark in my Associates’ eyes, and it’s the spark of success.” As Lise works toward her next goal of becoming an Emerald Director, she knows anything is possible. “Believe in yourself and in your dreams,” she concludes. n See income disclaimer on page 44.

One year and countless testimonials—that’s what it took for Ding Frank Gu to go from just being curious about USANA to becoming a Ruby Director. Frank has an innate passion when it comes to health and genuine concern for others. “I studied both Western and Chinese medicine, and practiced medicine in China,” he says. “After learning about USANA and introducing others to the company, I realized I was not only helping them, but I was also creating a business.” The more Frank learned about USANA, the more he was impressed with the company and the more he wanted to let others know about the products. “Most people take some type of supplement, but they only look at the price,” he says. “With USANA, I am introducing them to high-quality products, and I am proud to tell them about the company.” While enjoying his new title of Ruby Director, Frank is eager to help Associates, new and veteran alike, discover they too can become leaders within their team. “Always remember you are sharing excellent products with people. And there isn’t a better company you could work with,” he says. This last year of Frank’s life has been full of changes, and he can’t wait to see what the future has in store. “I hope to become a Diamond Director within the next few years,” he concludes. n

When Maggie Nie made the decision that it was the right time for her to make a run to Ruby, she knew there were some simple, but effective, steps she needed to follow. “I first decided to set my goal and then take action,” she says. “I made sure to constantly check my goal until I reached it and I was successful.” Maggie didn’t always think in terms of goals and action plans. “I had been a housewife for ten years when my sister introduced me to USANA’s products,” she says. But when Maggie began exploring the company even further, she was surprised at all the opportunities that awaited her. And then, everything changed. “I went from being a housewife to a business woman,” she says. While working toward Ruby Director, Maggie learned about the importance of setting up and following a plan for success. But she also learned that she has within her the confidence and drive to be a great leader.

Maggie believes there are several key things all USANA Associates need to remember as they pursue their personal and professional goals. “Be tolerant and understanding,” she says. “But always have perseverance and a positive attitude.” Maggie’s future is open, and she plans on enjoying it with her teammates. Or, as she refers to them, her closest friends. “In the next six months, I hope to help more of them find success.” n

Ruby Advancements
The advancement to Ruby Director for James Cui and Emma Rao results from the couple’s hard work, faith in their team, and a belief in USANA’s products. Emma points to the couple’s steady success at prospecting, training, and improving her network as to why they’ve risen so quickly since starting with USANA in 2008. Working with her team—which she says is like a big family—is easy thanks to her and James’ positive attitude and a strong will to succeed. Also propelling the couple’s success is their reliance on two key principles: working together and never giving up. “Teamwork is the power and perseverance is victory,” Emma says.

Looking back at their experience with USANA, Emma says she and James began taking the company’s products before joining and were immediately impressed with the results. Emma says that after just three months of using the supplements, she not only gained health, but also happiness.* Emma is convinced USANA produces the No. 1 dietary supplements in the world. Because of that experience, Emma’s become a big believer in testimonials, which is why word-of-mouth has become her most effective sales tool when talking with prospects. Emma adds that her team is working toward expanding its list of achievements, and she hopes to add a Gold Director and two Silver Directors to her downline over the next six months. n See income disclaimer on page 44. * These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

David Block California, USA
Lin Fan New York, USA
Teresa Khanh Nguyen Washington, USA
April Rutka Ontario, Canada
David Block has always had a passion for business. An Equity Research Analyst at an investment bank, David wrote research on stocks and focused on the health and wellness industry, which led him to USANA. After taking the products, David realized his experience completely mirrored what he was researching, and he won several awards for his research as a result.
Lin Fan was overworked as a senior marketing director at a financial services company, and felt she was missing out on the important things in life. “The business demanded a lot of my time and effort,” she says. “I realized I was sacrificing so much.” The possibility of becoming her own boss in USANA convinced her it was an opportunity she needed to seize.
There was something about
April Rutka was on board with USANA after her good friend (and Emerald Director) Leanne Grechulk introduced her to the company. “I was immediately intrigued by the opportunity to build an income outside of my full-time job in marketing,” she says.
During his Gold run, David watched his team explode in growth. “We had 21 team rank advancements, including two Silvers,” he says. “And I learned more about my USANA business in four weeks then the prior two years combined. It was a great experience!”
Fan’s recent advancement to Gold Director is the first of many accomplishments she looks forward to. Fan encourages others working toward their own goals to not become discouraged if they face difficulties. “If USANA is your passion, work hard,” she explains. “Don’t give any excuses and do whatever it takes.”
David is looking forward to not slowing down with his business or his life. He is getting married in October and hopes to advance to Ruby within a year.
She concludes, “If you are constantly giving your best effort, you can definitely succeed with USANA.”
“Becoming a Gold Director was truly about teamwork.”

Teresa feels blessed to work with individuals who care as much as she does about sharing USANA’s vision. “We enjoy working with each other and look forward to sharing Dr. Wentz’ message with others.”

Although it was the possibility of a part-time income that attracted her, April admits the future is what keeps her excited. “As my success began to build, I realized I could dream bigger,” she says. “Much bigger.” April’s teammates have been an important part of making her experience with USANA enjoyable and positive. “This really is a team business, and it gets me excited to wake up every morning knowing we are all helping each other work toward financial freedom and better health for all,” she says. April is pushing towards Growth 25 and is looking forward to bringing three new Silver Directors with her to International Convention 2011.

three growing sons, Dr. Ivy Sun is a busy mom on the go. So when one of her patients offered her information about USANA, she set the idea aside. But two years later, Ivy was looking for a supplement to help maintain her children’s health. Coincidentally, she ran into an old friend who, surprisingly, mentioned USANA once again. “I was still hesitant, but I decided to at least try the products,” she recalls.
network marketing was the best option for her. She had tried other companies in the past but was willing to look into USANA simply because she thought she might like the products. “I decided to try it for at least three years to see what could happen,” she recalls.
Qinyang Yin was content with her retirement, but there was something about USANA that reinvigorated her. “USANA brought energy and happiness to my life,” she explains. “I joined without ever looking back.”
The products are what keep Ivy motivated to share her experience with others. “I think you really need to believe in the products, experience them yourself, and then share them with others,” she says. “I want to be able to show others there are options when it comes to nutritional supplements.” Ivy looks forward to working less and spending more time with her husband and children.
Two and a half years later, Wang is a successful Gold Director and enjoying every moment of her USANA experience. “I am so thankful for USANA’s high-quality products, fair compensation plan, and wonderful management,” she says. Wang’s future is exciting to her, and she looks forward to spending it with USANA. “My goal is to work full time and always continue to go one step higher.”
“I am truly thankful for my team.”
She continues, “I was truly inspired by Dr. Wentz’ great vision.” Yin has been able to grow into a successful Gold Director thanks to those she works with. “My success is because of my team and their compassion,” she says. “It’s also because of USANA’s high-quality products.” Yin is excited about her new leadership role in USANA, and she looks forward to helping her teammates experience similar success. “I look forward to helping more people understand Dr. Wentz’ vision and helping others gain health, happiness, and wealth.”

Living Their Legacy
B
y definition, the word “legacy” means a bequeath, something material that is passed on to those in another generation by a benefactor, as in an estate. I have always wondered why individuals and family dynasties use their wills to pass on their “legacies.” Why not get the inner, soul-deep fulfillment in knowing, while you are still alive, that the harvests of your experiences and efforts are being replanted as seeds that will grow, flourish, and endure in the future to benefit those who follow? I firmly believe Dr. Myron Wentz and his son Dave Wentz are “living their legacy,” not simply leaving it. I have heard them in private moments express more concern about continuing to plant the seeds of greatness in others than in amassing and protecting the Wentz family fortune. True to his vision of “a world free from the pain and suffering of degenerative disease,” Dr. Wentz has dedicated himself to the life sciences, the USANA family, the leading-edge research and healing practices at the Sanoviv Medical Institute, and his health clinics and charitable contributions for families and children in under-developed regions of the world. He knew the benefits of antioxidants decades before the term became fashionable. He knew the dangers of mercury, pesticides, and fluoridation well before they became mainstream. He knows how to grow healthy human cells and how to nutrient them. He knows what to avoid and what to embrace in this toxic cradle in which we live and raise our children. He knows more about “the healthy home” than a panel of experts, including architects, builders, interior designers, landscapers, and environmentalists. He walks his talk and so does his entrepreneurial son, Dave. 64
USANA Health Sciences Volume 2 2011
Young Andrew and Sydney Wentz, Dr. Wentz’ grandchildren, are the beneficiaries of their parents’ and grandparents’ continuing dedication to quality of life. The Healthy Home book project, by Dr. Wentz and Dave Wentz, is an enormously important credibility testimonial for USANA Associates. It will bring more public awareness of the Wentz vision and contribution to society than any clever Superbowl ad campaign. It is one thing to lavish praise upon oneself, and another thing entirely to have the general public discover you because of the truth, relevancy, and wisdom of your knowledge and actions on their behalf. I urge you to seize this milestone in the Wentz legacy and introduce everyone in your sphere of influence to the sciencebased, simple truths revealed in The Healthy Home. It is a fact book, not a fad book, and is a banquet of dos and don’ts to make your home as safe and welcoming as possible. Make the launching of The Healthy Home your moment of simple truth. You, like Dr. Wentz and Dave Wentz, will be creating and living your own legacy of health and freedom. Live a legacy, don’t just leave it in your estate.
Simple Suggestions: • Read and internalize the information in each chapter, and share it with family and friends • Attend one or more of the live, in-person presentations by Dr. Wentz and Dave Wentz during the book tour throughout the United States and in Canada and México. Use this as a creative way to introduce your guests and prospects to the Wentz vision. • Have your relatives, team members, and friends visit their local bookstores and order copies of the book if they are not in stock. • Give copies of the book to your prospects to review and then set up a follow-up date to discuss their reactions.
SUPPLEMENT YOUR SMILE Your Simple Solution for strong and healthy teeth and gums.
