Nick just returned from Usana’s International Convention and WOW! The team had great training, team building, some networking events, and motivation from people like Robert Allen (“Nothing Down”, “The One-Minute Millionaire”), Tim Sales (“Brilliant Compensation”), Linda Armstrong-Kelly (Lance Armstrong’s mother and hero), and Werner Berger (the oldest North American ever to summit Mt. Everest.)

Some (Many) of you are already Usana customers and champions, and we thank you for putting your trust in us!  We wanted to share with you several new products announced at Convention. We’ve completely improved our approach to digestive health by announcing a new Digestive Enzyme product (did you know four billion people worldwide are lactose intolerant?), changing our Fibergy line of shakes, and improving our Hepasil (liver function) product.

We also made changes to our Proflavanol (anti-inflammatory, anti-allergy) product.  These changes were made possible through the breakthrough of Hybrid technology. Usana is among the first companies worldwide to leverage this new technological approach, allowing us to modify formulations of our supplements, so they are even more stable, dissolve more easily, and can be more potent.  Usana has already been recognized as the best of the best, and this is another step above our competition.

Below is a little more information on the new products.  if you have questions, please let us know!

Digestive Enzyme
USANA’s Digestive Enzyme supplement is designed to support digestion and reduce the symptoms of occasional indigestion, including occasional heartburn, gas, and bloating. This powerful supplement encourages more complete digestion and absorption of nutrients.*

Fibergy® Plus
Cholesterol free and low in sodium, Fibergy Plus can be mixed with juice, water, or even Nutrimeal™ shakes, taking on the flavor of the drink you mix it with and providing 12 grams of fiber per serving. It is gluten, dairy, and soy protein free and promotes good digestive health and healthy bacterial growth.*

Proflavanol® C100
Made using our innovative Nutritional Hybrid Technology, Proflavanol C100 combines USANA’s unique bioflavonoid supplement, Proflavanol, with a powerful dose of the immune system protection of vitamin C.*

Hepasil DTX™
Hepasil DTX  is a comprehensive liver support formula to help promote and balance detoxification processes within the body. Newly reformulated implementing USANA’s Nutritional Hybrid Technology, Hepasil DTX now has an increased dosage to further support your liver health.*

All the best,
Nick & Stacia Kelly

Ms. Georgia – dirt floors & no running water…

help build a home

Maybe you can’t travel to join us,…or don’t know how to build things, but you can still support the team in getting a home built for this woman.

Honestly, dirt floor and NO running water? How many of YOU could survive that way?

Nick & I will be there in April helping to build this survivor of a woman a new house.

Pitch in where you can. Either come join us, or donate a few dollars…or more.

We’re doing both.

All Natural Cleaners

In an effort to be more Green and kind to Mother Earth, I’m always searching for great all natural cleaners. Our house is on well and septic, so since moving here, we’ve renewed our efforts on efficiency and helping the environment.

This weekend, I set about cleaning an old mug I’d rescued from my mother’s basement this summer. It’s hard to tell whether it’s silver, pewter or brass, but based on it’s ick factor and polishing needs, I finally settled on it having to be brass. Thus began my search for a non toxic polish to see what’s under all that grime.

Update: Nope, it’s COPPER! With a United Arab Republic stamp, now to figure who made it. It looks hand crafted, not machine made. It doesn’t have that same finished look to it.

Here are some great recommendations, some I’ve found online, some come from magazine tidbits over the years (Natural Home has GREAT recommendations), and some, well, some I don’t remember where I got. Here they are:

  • Laundry Detergent – Baking soda & Distilled White Vinegar (I never measure, just use the….oh, that looks about right)
  • Dry Cleaning Spray – large spray bottle 1 part vodka, 2 parts water, 3 drops lemon essential oil
  • Window Cleaner - Mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 1 quart warm water.
  • Floor Cleaner – Mix 1 cup vinegar with 2 gallons water.
  • Glass Coffee Pot Cleaner – Place crushed ice, salt and sliced lemons in pot and swirl till clean.
  • Furniture polish – Mix 1/4 cup vinegar with 3/4 cup oil (olive, vegetable, lemon).
  • Brass, Copper, and Pewter Cleaner – Mix equal parts salt and vinegar, then thicken with flour.
  • General Cleaner – Mix 4 tablespoons baking soda in 1 quart warm water, or use plain baking soda with a wet sponge.
  • Disinfecting/Deodorizing Cleaner – Mix 1/2 cup Borax in 1 gallon hot water.

What are some of your favorites?
