Three Reasons Why Diets Fail
It’s little wonder that we ask ourselves,
“Why can’t I lose weight? What am I doing
wrong?” But it’s not we who fall short; it’s
our diets.
Problem #1
A Quick Fix. Dieters often drastically restrict
their calories or food choices now but return to
their old habits once they reach their goal.
Solution: Permanent lifestyle changes are
needed to achieve sustained weight loss.
Problem #2
Fad Diets = Unbalanced Nutrition. Too
often, diets focus on specific types of foods
or nutrients and disregard the importance
of everything else, leading to unbalanced
nutrition.
Solution: For optimal nutrition, our bodies need
a balanced variety of nutrients, including the
right types of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
Problem #3
The High-Glycemic Trap. Eating high-glycemic
foods can sabotage even the best of diet plans
because the resulting spike and subsequent drop
in blood sugar leads to a more rapid return to
feelings of hunger.
Solution: A better approach focuses on
low-glycemic carbohydrates, which help to
moderate blood glucose levels, leaving you
feeling full and satisfied longer.
If you have been struggling with your weight, its time to take control now. USANA offers a program to start you off right. The Reset program was created for people like you and me who are sick and tired of been sick and tired of diets. USANA can help you take control of your weight.

Low glycemic meals to reduce obesity
In a recent study, metabolic effects of meals with varying glycemic index (GI) were evaluated. In a group of healthy volunteers, glucose, insulin and leptin responses to two contrasting breakfast cereals were measured. Leptin is a hormone produced by fat cells that indicates the degree of hunger to the hypothalamus of the brain. Lower leptin levels trigger a sense of satiety and decreased hunger.
Meals were provided on two separate occasions in random order after a 12-hour overnight fast, and consisted of 50 g of available carbohydrate from either Corn Flakes (Kellogg's), or Fiber One (General Mills). Blood samples were obtained at rest, and 30, 60, 90 and 120 min after eating. The GI was calculated from the glucose response to the test meal normalized against a 50 g oral glucose load.
The average GI for Corn Flakes was 125 and 49 for Fiber One. These meals were classified as high GI and low GI, respectively, and were significantly different from each other. The insulin response following the low glycemic meal was significantly reduced compared to the high glycemic meal. The high glycemic meal significantly suppressed circulating leptin levels compared to the low glycemic meal.
Lower insulin response and higher circulating leptin levels suggest that low glycemic meals promote a post-meal environment that is favorable for reduced food consumption; this may be advantageous in the control of obesity and related disorders, including insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.
USANA provides low glycemic nutrimeals that not only are good for you, they are also delicious.

May you have many Christmas together with your family!
As my wife and I play Santa at 4:30AM, we realize that in about 5 years, our oldest child will leave us for college, our middle child will be a teenager almost out of high school, and our little one will be a big sister to our newest baby been developed now. In the mist of wrapping gifts, I remember how beautiful it is that all of our children worship God and have accepted Jesus as their savior.
Our children are blessed in the sense that they know that the reason for this season is to celebrate Christ's birth. Although giving gifts to our children is going to be a highlight of the day, knowing that they will spend eternity with God and ourselves is even more rewarding. Before they get to open their gifts, we will have time to praise and worship God and time to thank Him for all the blessings that He has giving us during the year.
One of such blessing has been joining the USANA family. Ever since our family has been taking USANA products, we had decided to share this wonderful blessing with as many people as we can. Our lives have changed since taking USANA products, and we are convinced that each person that uses USANA products are on the way to improve their lives. Because all of our family members take USANA, we can ensure many more Christmas ahead of us.
As you celebrate today with your family and open gifts, please remember that in order for families to continue to celebrate together, they need to ensure that their health is top priority. We encourage you to take a look at USANA to see what a difference it can make in your life.
May God bless you this Christmas, and may you share many more Christmas with your family in health. If you want to know more about USANA, please contact us.

USANA antioxidants, why are they better for you?
Everyday, your body gets rid of mutated and oxidized cells, known as "free radicals". With a strong immune system, the human body can recognize and get rid of these cells. Cells can become mutated or oxidized naturally as they are replicating in the body, or from stress, smoking, age, and sun damage. UV rays from the sun are very hard on your body's cells.
According to the dictionary, an antioxidant is a molecule capable of slowing or preventing the oxidation of other molecules. Oxidation is a chemical reaction that transfers electrons from a substance to an oxidizing agent, just like it happends with rust. Oxidation reactions can produce free radicals, which start chain reactions that damage cells. Antioxidants terminate these chain reactions by removing free radical intermediates, and inhibit other oxidation reactions by being oxidized themselves. As a result, antioxidants are often reducing agents such as thiols or polyphenols.
USANA Health Sciences announced that it is expanding its existing partnership with the Linus Pauling Institute (LPI), in an effort to better determine the function and role of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants (micronutrients) in promoting optimal health and preventing disease.
For over a decade, LPI, one of the nation’s first Centers of Excellence for Research on Complementary and Alternative Medicine, has been committed to the research of heart disease, cancer, aging, and neurodegenerative diseases. Along with its research on mirconutrition, LPI’s mission includes:
Determining the role of oxidative and nitrative stress and antioxidants in human health and disease, and Helping people everywhere achieve a healthy and productive life, full of vitality, with minimal suffering, and free of cancer and other debilitating diseases.
“The partnership between LPI and USANA will significantly enhance the Institute’s research mission, enabling our scientists to better understand the role antioxidants, phytochemicals, and other nutrients play in human health,” said Balz Frei, director of the Linus Pauling Institute. “We are very excited about this opportunity.”
USANA’s research team will collaborate with LPI on cutting-edge nutritional and clinical research. This collaboration and contribution will support:
Discovery that advances the science of human nutrition and health, Information that helps USANA to formulate and upgrade superior nutritional products, Information that helps USANA to better advise its customers on how to use USANA products to promote and maintain health, and Publications in leading scientific and medical journals that credit USANA for support and that may bear the name of USANA scientists as contributing scientists and authors where appropriate contributions have been made.
“The Linus Pauling Institute is clearly at the forefront of research in the arenas of nutrition and health,” said USANA’s Executive Vice President of Research & Development Tim Wood. “USANA is proud to be supporting their efforts and we look forward to working with LPI in advancing the science of nutrition in both laboratory and clinical settings.”
By now you can see that USANA antioxidants are better for you because there is plenty of research behind them, and because they work. If you are interested in purchasing USANA PRODUCTS, click here.

What is the reciprocity rule?
Many of us have been victims of it, without even knowing it. According to Robert B. Cialdini, PhD., the rule is overpowering and very efficient. Many organizations have used it, and during this season, is especially employed.
How many times have you been in a place and some strange person gets close to you, gives you a free gift, flower, button, flier, card, etc., and in return expects a simple donation for their cause?
In his book, Mr. Cialdini explains that even though people might ordinarily dislike unsavory or unwelcome sales operators, disagreeable acquaintances, representatives of strange or unpopular organizations, the same can greatly increase the chance that we will do what they wish merely by providing us with a small favor prior to their request.
Presidents have used it, corporations and individuals that provide judicial or legislative officials with gifts and favors, expecting something in return when the people who have received the gift or favor get elected.
The Amway Corporation has used the principles of the rule very efficiently. They called it the BUG. The BUG consist of a collection of Amway products such as bottles of furniture polish, detergent, or shampoo, spray containers of deodorizes, in a specially designed tray or just a bag. The confidential Amway Career Manual then instruct the salesperson to leave a BUG with the potential customer for 24, 48 or even 72 hours at no cost or obligation. At the end of the trial period, and Amway representative will return to pick up orders for those of the products the customer wishes to purchase.
Although the obligation to repay constitutes the essence of the reciprocity rule, it is the obligation to receive that makes the rule so powerful. The rule was established to promote the development of reciprocal relationships between individuals so that a person could initiate such a relationship without the fear of loss.
Now that you know about the rule of reciprocation, I urge you, specially during this season to give without expecting anything in return. The bible says that it is more blessed to give than to receive. Since this is a promise, then we will believe in it.
So this is our free gift to each and every one of our readers. Ever since we have been using USANA products, we have been so blessed that we have to share it with the world. My wife and I have been trying to have another baby for about 2 1/2 years. The doctors indicated to us that we could no longer have any children because my wife was not ovulating anymore, she had become sterile.
Then we started using USANA every day. My wife is 8 weeks pregnant and the doctors are bewildered. According to them, they have never seen such healthy cells before. Is that a miracle from God or what? In his book, invisible miracles, Dr. Myron Wentz describes how important is to feed our cells with the proper nutrients in order to have the cells work properly.
During this season, give the gift that keeps on giving. Give the gift of health. By using USANA products, you will start experincing the invisible miracles for your self. Once you used them, then share them with the people that you love.

Cold and Flu season
With cold and flu season approaching, nutrition plays an important role in helping prevent or reduce the incidence and severity of seasonal illness. Research shows that a good multivitamin and extra vitamin E can reduce the incidence of upper respiratory tract infections, especially in the elderly.
Respiratory illnesses, including the common cold, can be debilitating and lead to complications and death in the elderly. A study published in the August 18, 2004, issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association found vitamin E to be protective against upper respiratory infections.
Four hundred fifty-one individuals aged 65 and older at 33 long-term care facilities completed a course of 200 IU of vitamin E per day or a placebo from April 1998 to August 2001. In addition, all of the subjects received a multivitamin that provided 50 percent of the recommended daily allowance for essential vitamins and minerals. The incidence of lower respiratory infections, such as acute bronchitis and pneumonia, and upper respiratory tract infections, including cold, influenza, sore throat, middle ear infection and sinusitis, was documented over the course of the trial.
The subjects who received vitamin E acquired fewer respiratory tract infections than those who did not receive the vitamin. Participants who received the vitamin experienced a 20 percent decreased risk of acquiring the common cold, which accounted for 84 percent of the upper respiratory infections reported. In addition, participants taking vitamin E had fewer colds per person. Although vitamin E showed no significant effect on lower respiratory tract infections, the protective effect of vitamin E supplementation on upper respiratory tract infections observed in this group merits further investigation and suggests important implications for the well-being of the elderly.
If you want to get a good source of vitamins and minerals, please take a look at USANA. USANA offers 100% guaranteed potency on all their vitamins. Please contact us, if you would like to purchase USANA products.

God still works miracles
It has been two and half years since my wife and I have been trying to conceive a child. Ever since our daughter was born, we decided that it was time to increase the family. We waited about two years and started on the journey. We prayed to God for help and guidance
We have been waiting patiently without any results. My wife and I were getting frustrated because we thought it was going to happen as we planed. About a year ago, my wife was really concerned and we decided that we were going to see a doctor about it. So we did, and the doctor pretty much told us that the reason why we could not conceive again was because my wife was not menstruating.
Because of stress, age, and malnutrition, we were not going to enjoy God's precious gift to us again. We have one girl from our marriage, and two from previous marriages that I had. The doctor told us that the only way was to visit a fertility doctor so that we could accomplish what we wanted.
So again, we prayed, talked to one of our pastors, and were told that it was OK for us to consult with a specialist. However, my wife did not want to loose faith in God because she kept saying if Sarah had a child from Abraham at 99, so can I, God willing.
So we kept on praying and kept on trying. About three months ago, we started to take this wonderful vitamins and supplements called USANA. Little did we know, the invisible miracles started to work on my wife's body. We were taken the essentials and other supplements to help us live a better life. Last week, my wife decided to go again to the doctors because she was having some pains.
At the doctors, she checked her and told my wife that she had something growing inside of her, so she sent her for some test, sonograms and other tests. A day later, the doctor called her because she was having something growing inside of her and I was worried.
I just found out that WE ARE PREGNANT, even though the doctor said it could not happen without doctors help. God has a purpose for us to have others learn about USANA and this invisible miracles that happen in our bodies. So let this be a testimony of God's miracles and the effects of taking proper nutrition and taking care of the body that God has given us.

Cells in lung tissue activate vitamin D and increase immune function
A recent issue of the Journal of Immunology reports that vitamin D, which is primarily activated by the kidneys, is also converted to its active form in lung tissue. This conversion is essential for the beneficial activity of the vitamin in the body.
Researchers studying human lung tissue samples found that an enzyme called 1 alpha-hydroxylase helps convert vitamin D stored in the cells of the lungs into the active form of the vitamin.
The team also found that activated vitamin D increased the activity of a compound that destroys bacteria, as well as producing a protein that assists cells in their ability to fight infections.
The researchers noted that controlling inflammation through vitamin D is important because too much inflammation can cause problems related to sepsis (blood poisoning) and contribute to certain autoimmune diseases.

Produts that will change your life forever
Before my wife and I started with USANA, we had been looking for ways to improve our health. We tried many diets, supplements, colonic, and many other things that were always hard to follow, uncomfortable and they were only killing us instead of helping us. So we searched long and hard via friends, Internet, magazines for ways to accomplish our goal.
As an attorney, my job was making my body ill because I was internalizing every case that I had, and turned it into my problem. Imagine getting pay every day to deal with people's problem, and you are making them your own. So my body was feeling it. I developed high blood pressure, gastric problems, ulcers, bleeding, headaches, and too many others to mention.
My wife always wanted to help others,and help me. As a registered nurse, she had been trained to look for ways to help her patients. She would implement a nursing care plan, and implement it for the benefit of her patients. So she was determined to find a way to help me with my health problems. So the journey began.
I remember trying so many different pills because they were going to help me, so she said...But she was genuinely concerned about my health, so she kept on searching. You see, nurses are very good with research. The more she searched, the more stuff I had to try. I can now tell you that none of them worked, except USANA.
Before USANA, my wife felt that she was loosing her battle to implement a nursing care plan that would help me. I was getting worse, and she was worrying more for me. But her faith in God was great, so she kept on searching. She followed the scripture in the bible that says: "examine yourself to see if your faith is genuine. Test yourself." So she did. She was praying to God that something would come her way in order to help me with my health.
One night at the choir rehearsal room at Community Bible Church, my wife and one of her friends (which happened to be a doctor) were discussing about our reason attempt at colonic. How miserable we were, but that we had to continue until we found a solution to my health problems. Her friend looked at her, smiled and said, I have a solution. Why don't you come with me to a meeting on Thursday. So she did, and it has changed our lives forever.
Since we started USANA, my ulcer has disappear, my body is reacting differently to stress, none of the problems that I had torment me any more. I have been set free. USANA products are wonderful, and they work. See, the body needs nutrition in order to survive. I was starving my body of the right nutrients, and with USANA, I am no longer deficient on those essential nutrients.
In the bible, one of my favorite verses states:" For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don't use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love." Galatians 5:13. And that is the reason for this blog, to help others in love. My wife and I have decided to share the blessings that God has given us with USANA.
We can help more people achieve the health that they need with this wonderful products. We can also help them with financial conditions that may affect you. USANA has a comprehensive plan to financial freedom. Join us, in order to help others achieve their goals.

As an attorney, my job was making my body ill because I was internalizing every case that I had, and turned it into my problem. Imagine getting pay every day to deal with people's problem, and you are making them your own. So my body was feeling it. I developed high blood pressure, gastric problems, ulcers, bleeding, headaches, and too many others to mention.

At a glance guide to plastic bottles
Lately, you’ve been hearing all kinds of bad news reports about toxic chemicals leaching from plastic bottles and containers. Here at USANA, we care about your health. If you heat these bottles or re-use them, you might be increasing your exposure to hormone mimics or any of a number of other chemicals.
On the other hand, plastic is all around us, and not all of it is hazardous to your family’s health. How do you know which types of plastics are worse, and which are not as bad? The fist clue is the number inside the recycling symbol on the bottom of the bottles or containers. The numbers indicate which are accepted by recyclers, but they also indicate the class of plastic and its chemical characteristics:
No. 1 PETE or PET (polyethylene terephthalate)
No. 2 HDPE (high density polyethylene)
No. 3. V (vinyl) or PVC
No. 4. LDPE (low density polyethylene)
No. 5. PP (polypropylene)
No. 6. PS (polystyrene)
No. 7. Other or miscellanous
To sum up, if the bottle has the number 1, 2, 4, or 5 on the bottom, it’s made from one of the safer plastics. If the number says 3, 6, or 7, there is a greater likelihood that the bottle will be leaving a chemical residue in your beverage. Category No. 3, PVC or polyvinyl chloride, is the worst, followed by No. 7, which may contain polycarbonates (bisphenol-A).
Another clue is that the softer the plastic the more likely that leaching can occur. You can also use your nose. If you sniff a hint of plastic, find another container. Of course, your best bet is to avoid plastics for food and beverage altogether, and use glass, metal, or ceramic refillable containers whenever possible.
Dr. Wentz has diversed this information to associates all around the globe, and here at karolynas, we are making available to the public at large. Please join our vision, and Dr. Wentz mission to be the healthiest family on earth, free of disease, living long healthy lives. To join us, please click here.

Supplements for Asthma?
According to its etiology, asthma is a chronic disease that affects your airways. The airways are the tubes that carry air in and out of your lungs. If you have asthma, the inside walls of your airways are inflamed (swollen). The inflammation makes the airways very sensitive, and they tend to react strongly to things that you are allergic to or find irritating.
According to its pathophysiology, when the airways react, they get narrower, and less air flows through to your lung tissue. This causes symptoms like wheezing (a whistling sound when you breathe), coughing, chest tightness, and trouble breathing, especially at night and in the early morning.
Doctors say that, "the key in truly helping patients with asthma is to rebuild their natural antioxidant defense system and natural immune system back to optimal levels." USANA can help, by the following nutritional recommendations.
Optimal Recommendations
Essentials Breakfast-1, Lunch-1, Dinner-1
Active Calcium Breakfast-2, Lunch-2, Dinner-2
Proflavanol Breakfast-2, Dinner-1
Poly C Breakfast-1, Lunch-1, Dinner-2
Optomega Breakfast-2 tea spoon
BiOmega 3 Breakfast-1, Lunch-1, Dinner-2
Minimal Recommendations
Essentials Breakfast-1, Lunch-1, Dinner-1
Proflavanol Breakfast-1, Dinner-1
Active Calcium Breakfast-1, Lunch-1, Dinner-2
Myron Wentz, Ph.D. (immunology and microbiology), founder and chairman of USANA Health Science, hypothesizes that foods with high peroxide values, especially proccessed, fatty foods, generate "free radicals" that in turn damage healthy cells. Researchers believe that supplementary antioxidants are necessary for combating these free radicals in addition to the body's normal defense.
Disclaimer: "If you have asthma, consult your physician for a medical treatment. USANA should only be used as homeophatic holistic approach to asthma."
