This document discusses nutrition and malnutrition. It begins by defining nutrition as the provision of food to support life and growth. Nutrients in food provide energy and materials for cell development. A healthy diet prevents health issues while poor nutrition can cause deficiencies. Nutrition involves studying nutrients and their effects. Food provides macro and micronutrients that the body needs in different quantities. Malnutrition occurs when nutrient intake is unbalanced and can negatively impact health, growth, and development.
- The document discusses the health benefits of a plant-based diet. It argues that our ancient ancestors ate mostly fruits, nuts, roots, and greens rather than the modern staples of grains, legumes, meat, and dairy.
- While grains and legumes provide calories, our genetics have not fully adapted to digesting them, as shown by issues like lactose intolerance in adults and problems digesting proteins in wheat. Fermenting and soaking grains and legumes can improve digestibility.
- Adopting eating practices closer to our ancestors', such as incorporating more raw and fermented foods, can help address modern health issues related to diet and allow people to experience the benefits of a healthier lifestyle.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

Health Challenge

Howone man’s passion
leads him to rewrite the
standard of excellence
in an industry
2. The world’s most damaging health conditions today are not those caused by germs and
viruses. The decline in our health is a result of accumulated damage and degeneration of
our cells. Public health scientists have found new evidence that the air we breathe, the water
we drink, even the foods we eat, contain substances that may damage our cells.
NO EFFECTIVE CURE
At its annual report, the World Health Organization warns that major chronic conditions,
which already kill more than 24 million people a year, will impose an increasing burden on
hundreds of millions of others.
A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE
Many people still think of degenerative health conditions as unfortunate but inevitable
results of old age. We now know that “old” does not equal “sick”. Balanced nutrition,
physical activity, and a healthy lifestyle give us an excellent chance of avoiding chronic health
conditions, and lead us to a healthier life.
THE HEALTH
CHALLENGE
THE SCIENCE BEHIND A LIFETIME OF HEALTH
Healthy Atom
(paired electrons)
Free Radical
(missing one electron)
WHY A HEALTHY DIET HELPS
Food, particularly fruits and vegetables,
supplies many types of antioxidants,
which “donate” their extra electrons to
neutralize free radicals. Eating a variety
of healthy food also gives our body the
nutrientsitneedstorepair and regenerate
damaged cells. But maintaining a healthy
diet is difficult. Researchers believe that
supplementaryantioxidantsarenecessary
for combating free radicals in addition to
the body’s normal defense systems.
Antioxidant
(extra electrons)
HOW OUR CELLS DAMAGED
Free radicals are highly destructive
molecules. Because they are missing
an electron, they destroy healthy
molecules by stealing their electrons
and making them into free radicals
too. This causes a chain reaction of
damage to various parts of our cells.
Free radicals can result from our
environment. Free radicals are
also produced by our body in the
process of burning food for energy.
We cannot avoid them, but we can
neutralize their action.
Laboratory experience and analysis
indicate that certain types of healthy
cells in culture may survive indefinitely
when “nutriented” properly and pro-
tected from harmful toxins.
Cellular damage is caused by oxidized
lipids from fatty food. Consider that
such damage could occur throughout
the body.
Antioxidants provide a marked improvement
in inhibiting cellular damage from oxidizable
foods.
Healthier eating habits and proper nutrition
are your first line of defense.

UNDER THE MICROSCOPE
TAKE CHARGE OF
YOUR HEALTH
Countless studies have shown that the key
to a longer health span lies in choosing
a lifestyle that supports optimal health.
And luckily, you’re in control. Youthful
vitality, no matter your age, comes as a
result of the positive choices you make
daily to protect your body’s cells. Things
like diet, quality supplementation,
exercise, proper hydration, and skin care
all impact our ability to live life to its
full potential.
These positive health choices take on
more importance when we’re confronted
with the realities of the world around us.
Public health scientists have found new
evidence of the threats to our cellular
health posed by our toxic environment.
The air we breathe, water we drink, and
foods we eat contain substances that may
be damaging to our cells. Any tissue that
is exposed to the environment, including
the skin and the linings of the respiratory
and gastrointestinal passages may be
especially vulnerable.
“The human body is made of cells, and
those cells work together to sustain your
life,” USANA founder and chairman
Dr. Myron Wentz says. Other medical
professionals concur on the importance
of supplementation. Many researchers
believe supplementary antioxidants are
necessary for aiding the body’s normal
defense systems in combating free
radicals.
“My father started USANA Health
Sciences with a focused vision of freeing
the world from pain and suffering,”
USANA CEO Dave Wentz says. “He
envisioned a world where people
experienced physical health, emotional
well-being, and financial stability. He
wanted to give his family and families of
thousands of others the means to enjoy
life to its fullest in happiness and health.”
You are in charge of your happiness
and health. It starts with the healthy
choices you make. Currently, hundreds
of thousands of families around the
world are supplementing their diets
with USANA products, and making the
positive choice to pursue a healthier
tomorrow.

3. BUT I EAT FRUITS AND
VEGETABLES?
Easier Said Than Done
With an increasingly hectic lifestyle and more and more families with both parents working full-time, we know how difficult
it is to provide three fresh, balanced meals each day for our family. Many people continue to believe that “we can get
everything we need from food,” but with convenience starting to play a bigger role in our food preparation, can that
really be true?
In practice, even very careful eaters find it difficult to ensure that they receive the range of essential vitamins,
minerals, and phytonutrients in their daily diet. Here are some reasons:
1. Food Choice and Habit
They say variety is the spice of life, but the fact is, most people’s diets are pretty boring. We don’t eat
sufficiently wide in variety, often sticking to the few types of food that we like. Spinach may be full of
nutrients, but Popeye isn’t necessarily healthy if that’s all he eats.
2. Over Cooking
Heat destroys many valuable food nutrients. But for the sake of taste, we continue to boil, fry, roast,
and grill the goodness out of our food.
3. Variation in Nutrient Content
The same food – cultivated in different locations, planted in different seasons, or processed to
different degrees – can end up containing very different nutrient profiles. How can you be sure
that you’re really getting the amount of nutrients your body needs?
THE ORANGE
QUESTION
Good, you’ve eaten a fresh orange. But
one orange can have five times more
nutritional value than another.
Which one did you just eat?
SHOULD WE TAKE
NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS?
Research has shown that many people simply may not follow
the recommended guidelines for healthy eating. Fast-food
and convenience-food consumption, snacking, and soft-
drink use have all increased, and it has been shown that many
people may not meet even the basic RDAs for key nutrition.
A nutritional supplement does not replace a healthy diet. But
proper supplementation can bridge the gap between what our
body needs in optimal nutrition and what most of us actually
get from food.
Herbs from the mountain peak; algae from the deep
sea; roots from virgin forests… the search goes on
for the nutritional magic bullet.
Such supplements, like herbal medicines, can
benefit some people in addressing specific health
issues. But no folklore medicine can provide the
variety of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in
optimal amounts and balance. Therefore, they do
not replace a good, broad-spectrum nutritional
supplement that we should take each day.

MEDICAL INSTITUTE
NOT ALL SUPPLEMENTS ARE CREATED EQUAL
Five level-headed questions you should ask when selecting a nutritional supplement
1. COMPLETE?
“A little of every nutrient is better than lots of one or two”
A good supplement provides a broad spectrum of essential
nutrients – vitamins, minerals, and a variety of antioxidants such
as bioflavanoids, alpha lipoic acid, and coenzyme Q10. Many
“multi” formulas miss out on the more costly nutrients.
2. BALANCED?
“Nutrients work best together, in synergy – not alone”
A good supplement delivers nutrients in balance, so our body
can enjoy their synergistic benefits. Unbalanced formulations
may be harmful, as excessive amounts of one nutrient can
sometimes hamper the body’s absorption of another.
3. POTENT?
“Too much of any is harmful. But too little is ineffective”
The amount of each micronutrient we need is very small (often
in thousandths of a gram a day). However, a good supplement
provides sufficient amounts for optimal health. These amounts
are often higher than the RDAs (Recommended Dietary
Allowances), which are minimum levels to prevent deficiency
diseases.
4. BIOAVAILABLE?
“What doesn’t get absorbed and used is wasted”
Vitamins and minerals can come in various forms, some more
easily absorbed and used by the body than others. A good
supplement always uses the most bioavailable form. For
example, chelated minerals, i.e., those bonded to amino acids,
are more readily absorbed than mineral salts.
4. SAFE?
“Above all, do no harm”
A good supplement avoids nutrients like iron and preformed
vitamin A, which can be harmful with long-term use. It is also
manufactured to more exacting standards to ensure purity
and uniformity in every tablet. Products that are made to
pharmaceutical standards are best.
BEST OF THE BEST
Now in its 5th edition, the NutriSearch Comparative Guide to
Nutritional Supplements compares more than 1,600 nutritional
products in North America to an independent nutritional benchmark
developed from the individual recommendations of 12 recognized
nutritional authorities.
The guide recently awarded
USANA its highest distinction
possible—the NutriSearch Gold
Medal of Achievement™—and
selected USANA as its Editor’s
Choice for the second time.

ASSOCIATE WITH SMART
Scientists are smart. Smart is good. But you don’t have to be a scientist to be smart. Just
be curious. Strive for knowledge. Learn. And associate with smart.
Have smart friends. Like USANA’s scientists. They’re smart. They partner with research
institutions across the country to discover what our bodies need to be healthy. Then, they turn
that knowledge into award-winning nutritional products for you and hundreds of thousands
of people in USANA’s ever-expanding global markets.

5. THE USANA STORY
Founded in 1992, USANA Health Sciences has grown to be a highly respected manufacturer and
marketer of nutritional supplements. Its success is largely the result of its founder and chairman
Dr. Myron Wentz.
BECOMING AN EXPERT IN GROWING CELLS
With a Ph.D. in microbiology and immunology, Dr. Wentz is an internationally recognized
pioneer in the use of human cell culture technology for the diagnosis of infectious disease. In
the early 1970s, Dr. Wentz founded Gull Laboratories and spent 20 years developing diagnostic
products that would be used in hospitals and clinical laboratories around the world. In the
process, he became an expert in growing healthy human cells.
From Diagnosing Disease to Maintaining Optimal Health
Despite Gull’s success, an ensuing sense of discontent and growing personal health problems
influenced the next phase of Dr. Wentz’ career. A good friend’s advice on taking a nutritional
supplement became the turning point. Recalling that both his parents died of degenerative
diseases, the North Dakota-born scientist decided to redirect his scientific expertise from
diagnosing diseases to promoting health.
REWRITING THE STANDARDS OF EXCELLENCE
Knowing the importance of good nutrition for optimal cell function, he began to
test available nutritional supplements in his analytical laboratory, and found them
inadequate – with nutrients in inappropriate amounts and balance. He also saw
that ingredients were of poor quality and low bioavailability. He founded
USANA in 1992 with a personal commitment to develop a line of
supplements that will rewrite the standard of excellence in the
nutritional industry.
SHARING A VISION OF HEALTH
“My father started USANA Health Sciences with a
focused vision,” says Dave Wentz, son of Dr. Wentz and
CEO of USANA. “He envisioned a world where people
experienced physical health, emotional well-being,
and financial stability. He wanted to give his family and
families of thousands of others the means to enjoy life
to its fullest in happiness and health. To accomplish
this, he enlisted the help of many Distributors who
shared USANA’s vision and wanted to help make the
world a healthier place.”
Today, hundreds of thousands of people around
the world share Dr. Wentz’ vision of maintaining
good health through good nutrition, and trust their
families’ well-being to USANA products. Dr. Wentz’
passionate dream led him to establish the state-of-
the-art Sanoviv Medical Institute in Baja, Mexico,
as well as the Wentz Medical Centres for children in
Uganda and Cambodia.
“With the right combination of all
the nutrients essential for life, I could
maintain human cells in a healthy state
almost indefinitely, without any signs of
degeneration.”

ONE MAN’S VISION
AND PASSION
6. FROM USANA
TO YOU
The supplement industry is often given a
lot of slack. The Food and Drug Admin-
istration (FDA) doesn’t hold dietary sup-
plements to the same quality standard as
pharmaceuticals so many products just
aren’t what they say they are. The USANA
Standard says that’s not good enough.
NSF International has certified our good
manufacturing practices, and USANA
products meet the stringent require-
ments of both Informed-Choice and HFL
Sport Science. Plus, we guarantee that
our supplements contain exactly what’s
listed on the label.
But that’s not all. Part of having such high
standards is having a variety of govern-
ment agencies periodically drop in to
inspect our manufacturing facility. They
stop by to make sure we’re meeting the
highest standards while we produce our
products, and they require strict adher-
ence to certain procedures and docu-
mentation. For example, in order to
offer products to our Australian Pre-
ferred Customers and Associates, we’ve
been meeting the rigorous guidelines of
the Australian Therapeutic Goods Ad-
ministration for years. And USANA also
already adheres to a more rigorous qual-
ity assurance program in the manufacture
of its nutritional supplements by com-
plying with pharmaceutical-level Good
Manufacturing Practices, or GMPs.
Did we stop there? Nope. In 2011, USANA
took everything a step further. Our manu-
facturing facility became a registered FDA
Drug Establishment. Because USANA has
been voluntarily adhering to these FDA
standards for years, no changes needed to
be made to our manufacturing processes
in order to comply with the increased FDA
scrutiny. But the new Drug Establishment
Registration simply makes things official.
Now, this may have you wondering: what
about other supplement companies? Do
they meet these standards? It’s hard to
say. Other supplement companies are
only required to follow the FDA’s less
stringent dietary supplement standards.
And while some other companies out
there can say they manufacture their
products in a registered FDA Drug
Establishment, many of them outsource
the responsibility of manufacturing to a
third party vendor. USANA is different in
that we take the responsibility of creating
the highest-quality supplements upon
ourselves. We manufacture the majority
of our products in-house at our own
state-of-the-art facility in Salt Lake City,
Utah. We want to make sure we know
exactly what’s going into our products so
you can trust you’re getting the best of
the best.
The amazing quality of our manufacturing
processes is just one more way USANA
shows its commitment to creating the
highest quality products on the market.

concentration
• Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) analysis
is used to test mineral content and heavy
metal contaminants
• Cyclical Dissolution Baths mimic
the stomach to assess dissolution
and bio-availability
MICROBIOLOGY LABORATORY
Every batch of quarantined raw material is
tested for biological contamination such
as Total Aerobic Plate Count (TPC), molds,
and yeast, and pathogens known to harm
humans such a E. coli, Salmonella, and
Staphlyococcus aureus. Only pure and
potency-assured raw materials are allowed
into the main manufacturing area. Finished
tablets are tested again for any in-process
contamination.
