Good Day All,

My little announcement is BIG :-)  and a bit outside the traditional REC
topics- but worth reading and sharing with those you know. It is TOO BIG not
to share.   It is about nutritional supplements- antioxidants, vitamins,
minerals etc. If you are concerned about your health or someone you know,
then give them this. 

Since the 2002 Olympics, USANA Health Sciences has guaranteed its
nutritional supplements to be FREE of BANNED substances; we also have in
place a million dollar published guarantee to that effect. 

As a result of this guarantee, Olympians and high performance athletes were
able to consume our supplements with complete trust.    In today’s
announcement, USANA took its guarantee a step further and have added the
Sports NSF Certification on our products. 

Many in here may be taking supplements, but as non Olympians, this
information is important because the differences in supplementation, while
unknown to most, truly will mean the difference of true health, better
health, and living longer.  You need to look no further….and can share this
with those who believe in taking control of their health or really have
concerns and want to do so.  These are Nutritionals You Can Trust.    

Thanks….Pauline Puzynska T:  905- 296-2035 HYPERLINK

News Release


USANA Receives Certification Through NSF's Certified for Sport Program


SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 31, 2008--USANA Health Sciences, Inc.
(NASDAQ: USNA) recently received certification of six of its products
through NSF International's Certified for Sport(TM) program. NSF's
independent certification helps athletes make educated decisions about the
safety of the dietary supplements they choose to take.

USANA's Essentials(TM) (Mega Antioxidant and Chelated Mineral),
Proflavonal(R) 90, Procosa(R) II, Active Calcium(TM) and Body Rox(TM)
supplements are now approved to carry NSF's trusted Certified for Sport
mark. USANA also received Good Manufacturing Practices registration and
dietary supplement certification in 2007 through NSF. These are just some of
the third-party findings that help consumers and athletes know USANA
products are Nutritionals You Can Trust.

"The Certified for Sport program validates USANA's guarantee that our
nutritional products are complete, balanced, safe and effective," said Dr.
Tim Wood, USANA Executive Vice President of Research and Development. "This
latest certification, as with all of our third-party testing, is based on
regular product formulas--the same products that USANA customers take every
day. Receiving this certification is just another step toward fulfilling our
goal of providing supplements that everyday consumers and world-class
athletes can trust."

The NSF Certified for Sport program was developed to meet the growing demand
of athletes, coaches and all others concerned about banned substances. The
NSF Certified for Sport(TM) Mark helps consumers know that products have met
NSF's stringent independent certification guidelines. Products are tested
and facilities are inspected for a wide range of substances prohibited by
the World Anti-Doping Agency, the NFL/NFLPA and MLB/MLBPA. The list includes
stimulants, narcotics, steroids, diuretics, beta-2 agonists, beta blockers,
masking agents and other banned substances.

High-quality formulas, a rigorous quality assurance program and third-party
certifications have helped USANA earn the trust of many world-class athletes
and athletic organizations, including United States Speedskating, Speed
Skating Canada, USA Luge and the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour. "It is imperative
for our athletes to know precisely what they're putting into their bodies,"
said Stacey Allaster, President of the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour. "With USANA's
guaranteed assurance of the quality of their products, our athletes can
trust that they will be able to attain optimal health and fitness without
the fear of violating the strict WADA code they all adhere to."

USANA has taken its assurances to athletes one step further through its
unique Athlete Guarantee Program. Select athletes who participate in the
program are guaranteed compensation up to $1 million if they should test
positive for a substance banned by WADA as a result of taking USANA(R)
nutritional products.
