My Story

I would like to share with you how my experience with Usana Health Sciences led me to become a holistic health care practitioner.

I have always been interested in good quality food,  I lived in the country and grew my own food organically in my market garden/greenhouse operation.  Each week I  made yogurt, bread, etc.  I  raised goats and used their milk in my food preparation.  I nursed my babies for an extended period of time and took pride in doing all I could to ensure I was feeding my family the very best food possible.

I have always been very active and participated in aerobics, weight-bearing exercise, yoga and I love to jog.

I have a strong sense of spirituality and have practiced meditation for years.

In spite of all my efforts in nutrition, my health was declining and around five years ago I was in very bad way.  I suffered from constant headaches and each morning I would evaluate the intensity of the headache and decide what level of painkiller was required to take to manage the pain for that day. I had plantar fasciitis and wore orthotics, I had a hip brace for my sacroiliac pain, I had a custom thumb splint made, to allow me to hold and use a pen to write.  My back was in a constant state of spasm, and it was thought that I had Fibromyalgia.

I suffered from extreme Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and was in constant digestive distress. I  received allergy shots for my allergies, and  I became addicted to nasal spray.

Needless to say I was spending a lot of time and money visiting a variety of health care practitioners; my family doctor, a physiotherapist, a naturopath, an acupuncturist, a psychologist, a massage therapist, and a chiropractor. 

A friend of mine recommended that I try the Usana Essentials, a pharmaceutical grade multi vitamin/mineral supplement.  I resisted initially, as I was eating a great diet--organic, natural, good quality food.  When I gave in and began the Essentials I was amazed at the improvement I experienced!  The first thing that happened was that my headaches disappeared, next the plantar fasciitis, then the allergies, and wonderfully my body pain was gone!

This fabulous response to the Usana products made me sit up and pay attention to what difference optimal nutrition can make!  What I  found amazing was that there are many other  people with stories similar to mine!

I went on to learn more about the importance of a pharmaceutical grade, broad spectrum, easily absorbed, bioavailable, multi-vitamin. My curiosity led me to study nutrition at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition and to earn the designation of Registered Holistic Nutritionist and to become a member of the International Organization of Nutritional Consultants.  I now recognize that each individual is biochemically unique, and that'one man's food may be another man's poison', but a good multi-vitamin is a great basic place to start to build health, wellness and longevity!
