The Benefits of Antioxidants

Antioxidants are substances that protect the body from free radical damage. Free radicals are highly reactive molecules that can cause oxidative stress. Free radicals come from a number of sources, including our body's own biological processes that occur when we eat and exercise and also external sources. Free radicals have been linked to accelerated ageing and a variety of health issues. So remember to make sure your diet has plenty of antioxidants to help protect your body against the damaging effects of free radicals~!

USANA Optimizers - Active Calcium Plus

112 tablets/bottle

Active Calcium Plus is a carefully formulated, clinically tested bone-building formula, not just any ordinary calcium supplementation. Active Calcium Plus contains high amounts of calcium citrate and carbonate, magnesium, and vitamin D to optimize bone mineralization and to ensure proper calcium use.

USANA Optimizers - BiOmega III Plus


56 soft gel capsules/bottle

No nutritional program is complete without a high quality source of beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. USANA’s BiOmega III Plus™ is produced from cold-water, deep-sea fish oil and contains a balanced, daily dose of two important omega-3 fatty acids: eicosapentanoic acid (EPA) and docosahexanoic acid (DHA) in two convenient capsules per day.

In spite of clear benefits, health authorities have warned us to limit our intake of certain species of fish due to concern about potential contaminants. USANA’s BiOmega III Plus™ is virtually free of contaminants, which are eliminated through a double-molecular distillation process that ensures purity. Through this process, heavy metals, PCBs, pesticides, and organic residues are effectively eliminated. Also free of trans-fatty acids, each capsule contains 2mg of mixed natural tocopherols to minimize oxidation of the omega-3 fatty acids and maintain product quality during storage. In short, BiOmega III Plus™ is one of the purest, highest quality products available on the market today.

Supplementation with BiOmega III Plus™ is an excellent way to ensure that your diet includes a concentrated balance of safe, healthful EPA and DHA in two convenient capsules per day. And with added natural lemon oil, there is no fishy aftertaste.

USANA Optimizers - CoQuinone™

56 soft gel capsules/bottle

Energy for Your Body

The energy that every cell needs to function is produced through a complex process in the mitochondria, an organelle within the cell, often called the cellular powerhouse. Cells store energy in a molecule called adenosine-5-triphosphate, or ATP. CoQ10 is an essential part of the electron transport chain used to make ATP. Thus ATP is synthesized and used by every cell in the body. Cells with the highest energy demands contain the highest levels of CoQ10. CoQ10 has been studied for years in the U.S., Europe, and Japan for its role in producing cellular energy.

The CoQ10 and the alpha lipoic acid provides one of the best antioxidant protection that a nutrient has to offer as the alpha lipoic acid is both water and lipid soluble making it a great antioxidant support to your system.  The CoQuinone offers the most bioavailable form of CoQ10 and alpha lipoic acid.

The CoQuinone also helps in the support of normal and healthy heart function as it contains CoQ10 and alpha lipoic acid, which are in a highly bioavailable formula. The CoQuinone also helps in the energy metabolism in the muscles.

USANA Optimizers - Poly C

120 tablets/bottle

Rich in Antioxidants

The value of vitamin C in promoting good health and well-being has been known for years—as evidenced by the many vitamin C products on the market today. But USANA's Poly C® supplement stands above the rest. Formulated with a unique blend of highly bioavailable mineral ascorbates, all of which have potent vitamin C activity, Poly C provides higher levels of vitamin C than ascorbic acid alone.

The Poly C is an advanced vitamin C based on USANA's proprietary blend of mineral ascorbates which provides 600mg of vitamin C protection in each tablet for antioxidant protection. The Poly C is also a unique vitamin C blend with bioflavanoids for enhanced bioavailability.

USANA Optimizers - Procosa II

84 tablets/bottle

Support Your Body's Architecture

Every day your joints endure an enormous amount of stress from physical activity, including walking, lifting, and typing. Despite this heavy and constant use, we take our joints for granted and expect them to function trouble-free for several decades. However, more than 50 million people in the U.S. and more than 6 million in Canada suffer from some form of joint problem. The situation is worse for athletes and those who have high amounts of physical stress at work and at home. To help maintain healthy joints, USANA created Procosa II.

It is helps in the treatment of osteoarthritis as it provides glucosamine sulphate to promote optimal joint health. 

USANA Optimizers - Visionex

56 tablets/bottle

Entice the Senses

As we age, there is a general decline in our acuity of vision, but this doesn't have to be an inevitable part of growing older. Maintain healthy vision with USANA's Visionex supplement as this comprehensive formula is designed to maintain eye health with powerful free-radical fighting antioxidants for the eyes. Because our eyes are constantly exposed to harsh environmental factors like air pollution, dryness, and oxidative damage from sunlight, the health maintenance you'll get from Visionex will go a long away toward maintaining your healthy vision.

The Visionex is a formulation to help maintain good eye health as it contains lutein, an antioxidant that appears to reduce harmful free radicals in various parts of the body. The Visionex also includes vitamin C and zinc for additional supplemental support.

Almond Crème Fibergy™ & Peach Mango Fibergy™

The Importance of a Low-Fat, High Fiber Diet

Grain products, fruits and vegetable are diets rich in fiber, low in saturated fat and cholesterol.  Consuming multiple sources of dietary fiber can be beneficial because different types of fiber provide specific benefits and act in different ways in the body.  Unfortunately, the normal diet in today's society includes only one-half to two-thirds of the fiber necessary for optimal health.  The positive impact of a high fiber diet is increased when there is a concurrent reduction in the amount of saturated fat consumed.


Truth About Fiber

A diet high in fiber, containing grain products, fruits, and vegetables can help you maintain a healthy digestive system and long-term good health.  Fibergy is a testy drink mix which provides a significant source of dietary fiber.

 Fibergy is available in two flavours: fresh, fruity Peach Mango and delicious Almond Creme~!  We shall now take a look at the nutrition facts of both the flavours as they both vary from each other in terms of content. 



Almond Crème Fibergy™



The  Almond Crème Fibergy™ is a great drink on its own, but it can be added onto the Nutrimeal as an added extra.  I usually do that.  So below is the nutrition facts of the Almond Crème Fibergy™. 

 

I myself mix the Almond Crème Fibergy™ with the Nutrimeal™ Dutch Chocolate and make it into a smoothie which I enjoy with my morning workouts.  Of course there are many more recipes for me to try out.

Peach Mango Fibergy™
