The JAY That Keeps Giving!

The Gift That Keeps Giving!

Upgrade to 3 Business Centers!


It was a great gift . . .

We all have similar stories! Someone . . . a friend . . . an associate . . . a family member . . . or maybe even a total stranger . . . took a deep breath to get up the courage to approach you with a gift of health and wealth: They asked you to look at the USANA opportunity!

It's the greatest gift we've ever received! It truly is the "The Gift That Keeps on Giving!" That's what Residual Income is! Like the Energizer Bunny it keeps going and going and going! For us, it been sending weekly checks for 10 and 15 years - and it doesn't stop! What a great gift!

Have you ever received a gift you didn't fully appreciate? Maybe you got the little Energizer Bunny but never found the switch that turned it on! Well, the switch is activated by reaching into the center of YOUR heart and GIVING - just like the person that shared it with you!

'tis the Season - for Giving! What a great time of the year for sharing with those we love the gift of Healthy Wealth! It's simple: ALWAYS have a Health and Freedom Newspaper or Success For Home Magazine with you and start giving them away! To everyone you meet. Some will see it as a funny little bunny but others, with your help, will find the switch! You can't control what they do - only what you do!

And now - for a limited time - USANA is offering another gift! If you or anyone in your downline are a 1 BC Associate, you have until December 28th to upgrade to a 3 BC Associate!

Login for the details. What a great way to turn on and leverage the power of your business. It's been several years since USANA has offered this opportunity - don't miss this opportunity to make sure everyone on your team is a 3 BC Associate - it can double your income! This is a limited opportunity - we must act now!

You Can Make A Difference!

Vitamin D levels inadequate in half of women treated with osteoporosis drugs

Vitamin D levels inadequate in half of women treated with osteoporosis drugs

Despite efforts to increase knowledge and emphasis on osteoporosis prevention and treatment, research indicates that many women treated for osteoporosis have low levels of vitamin D, a nutrient necessary for adequate bone mineralization.A recent study involved 1,536 postmenopausal women from 61 study sites who had been taking medications for the treatment of osteoporosis for a minimum of three months. Participants were allowed to have used vitamin D supplements as long as the dosage had remained consistent.

Overall, 52 percent of the women had vitamin D levels considered inadequate. Sixty-three percent of women who reported a supplemental intake of 400 IU's or less had inadequate vitamin D levels compared to 45 percent of those whose intake was 400 IU's or greater.

Lower levels were also associated with the lack of physician counseling regarding the importance of vitamin D in bone health. The results of this study emphasize the need for greater education of the public and physicians regarding the significance of vitamin D status in the care of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

Business Building During the Holidays

Business Building During the Holidays
By Pete Zdanis


The holiday season is fast approaching, and with it can come a whole set of new obstacles for the uninformed network marketer.

The obstacles:

Uninformed Network Marketer Mentality: “I’m going to take some time off during the holidays, and then start building my business again after the New Year.”

Uninformed Prospects Mentality: “Your business really sounds interesting to me, but why don’t you get back to me after the New Year, and we can discuss it then.”

How can we address these obstacles? Let’s start with the uninformed network marketer mentality:

Momentum is a very important part of our business. Momentum is simply maintaining a steady pace at anything. Once you lose it, it requires a lot of effort to get it back.

Think about driving your car down the highway at a steady 65 miles per hour. You are moving toward your destination and making good progress. However, when you pull off to the side of the road and stop, you are losing time, and it will require more time and energy (in this case, gasoline) to get back on the highway and accelerate back up to your previous cruising speed to get where you want to go.

The same is true of your business. When you stop making approaches and followups, you are no longer moving toward your business goals. And, the longer you take “time off”, the more time you lose and the harder it will be for you to get back to your previous business building pace. You will need to start making approaches from scratch, and you will have lost many of your prospects due to lack of followup.

Let’s say that you follow the tried and true method laid out in the “Power Of Two”. If you stop building your business from now until, say, January 2, you will have missed out on 98 approaches, 14 presentations, and at least 2 or 3 enrollments. Can you afford that? I know that we can’t.

And don’t fall into the trap of thinking that you don’t want to “bother” people with something like USANA during the holiday season. As you know, this is the season of giving, and the USANA products and business truly are gifts which we offer to our prospects, and it is up to them do decide if they choose to accept our gift.

If you don’t believe that USANA is a gift, then you need to re-think your belief level and business motives. Remember, building a USANA business has nothing to do with you, and has everything to do with your customers and prospects. Let me repeat that: Building a USANA business has nothing to do with you, and has everything to do with your customers and prospects. When you help other people meet a need or solve a problem, abundance will definitely come your way – for you AND your team members.

If you are not comfortable with that concept, try a simple exercise the next time you make an approach or presentation. Instead of thinking “What will signing this person up as an Associate or Preferred Customer do for my business?”, approach it from the standpoint of “How can my gift of USANA help this person?” You will be truly amazed at the difference in your results by making this simple shift in your thinking.

You see, so many people get things backwards when trying to build their USANA business, and that’s what leads to problems and failure. I know when I started out and was talking to a prospect, the foremost thoughts in my mind were where I was going to place this person when they signed up, and how much it would help my business. Now admit it, you’ve probably had the same thoughts, and maybe you still do from time to time. But, once I focused on trying to figure out how my gift could help my prospects, everything changed for the better for everyone, including me.

Now let’s talk about the uninformed prospect:

If a prospect tries to put you off until after the holidays, first of all tell them that you appreciate their concerns and respect their time, but that you just want to make two points with them before they make a final decision to wait until January.

Tell them that most people feel the same was as they do, and want to wait until after the holidays. So, what happens is that January and February are very strong business building months because people are looking to make a new start and improve their health and/or financial situation. By getting their USANA business set up now, your prospect can benefit from all of this activity instead of just being a part of it.
A major benefit of having a USANA business can be the tax advantages it offers. By getting their business set up now, they can potentially benefit from tax savings when they file their return in a few months, rather than putting those benefits off until they file their tax return in 2009.

Tell them that you respect whatever decision they make, but that you just wanted to make sure that they were aware of those two major benefits.

Remember, building a USANA business has nothing to do with you, and has everything to do with your customers and prospects.

Antioxidants and Phase 2 Enzymes in Cardiomyocytes

Antioxidants and Phase 2 Enzymes in Cardiomyocytes:

Chemical Inducibility and Chemoprotection Against Oxidant and Simulated Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Zhuoxiao Cao*,1, Hong Zhu*, Li Zhang*, Xue Zhao, Jay L. Zweier* and Yunbo Li*,2
* Davis Heart and Lung Research Institute, Department of Internal Medicine and Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, The Ohio State University Medical Center, Columbus, Ohio 43210; and Department of Cardiology, Changzheng Hospital, The Second Military Medical University, 415 Fengyang Road, Shanghai 200003, China

The increasing recognition of the role for oxidative stress in cardiac disorders has led to extensive investigation on the protection by exogenous antioxidants against oxidative cardiac injury. On the other hand, another strategy for protecting against oxidative cardiac injury may be through upregulation of the endogenous antioxidants and phase 2 enzymes in the myocardium by chemical inducers. However, our current understanding of the chemical inducibility of cardiac cellular antioxidants and phase 2 enzymes is very limited.

In this study, using rat cardiac H9c2 cells we have characterized the concentration- and time-dependent induction of cellular antioxidants and phase 2 enzymes by 3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione (D3T), and the resultant chemoprotective effects on oxidative cardiac cell injury. Incubation of H9c2 cells with D3T resulted in a marked concentration- and time-dependent induction of a number of cellular antioxidants and phase 2 enzymes, including catalase, reduced glutathione (GSH), GSH peroxidase, glutathione reductase (GR), GSH S-transferase (GST), and NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase-1 (NQO1). D3T treatment of H9c2 cells also caused an increase in mRNA expression of catalase, -glutamylcysteine ligase catalytic subunit, GR, GSTA1, M1 and P1, and NQO1.

Moreover, both mRNA and protein expression of Nrf2 were induced in D3T-treated cells. D3T pretreatment led to a marked protection against H9c2 cell injury elicited by various oxidants and simulated ischemia-reperfusion. D3T pretreatment also resulted in decreased intracellular accumulation of reactive oxygen in H9c2 cells after exposure to the oxidants as well as simulated ischemia-reperfusion. This study demonstrates that a series of endogenous antioxidants and phase 2 enzymes in H9c2 cells can be induced by D3T in a concentration- and time-dependent fashion, and that the D3T-upregulated cellular defenses are accompanied by a markedly increased resistance to oxidative cardiac cell injury.
