Is USANA Health Sciences a Fraud?

Valentine, of course Dr. Wentz can get rich. He produces a product and created a business model. By following through with his goals he was rewarded with a solid income earning business. So did my 98 year of grandfather who will soon have his product advertised on TV and I hope he makes the money he deserves because of his time and financial investment. That's what makes this country great is we all have that same equal opportunity when we have a dream and don't give up on it. Why is that viewed in a negative light? Do you feel the same way about the men who started all the fast food franchises out there and are their consumers duped? They don't even offer a product to improve our health on the contrary they have created a huge stream of income for themselves on the hopes that we won't care how unhealthy of a product they sell.

Is USANA Health Sciences a Fraud?

When you say NEVER EVER EVER pay a company, firm or group to be allowed to sell a product for them does that include franchise owners like McDonalds, Chick-fil-A, Super Supper, Baskin Robins etc.? They have huge monthly fees to the guy at the top of the pyramid just to continue to sell a product and their initial investment is unatainable for the average guy. I have a friend who has $38K a month in overhead and doesn't expect to see a profit for three years and his initial investment was close to a million. I made my money back and began to see a profit within the first 4 months without the stress of any overhead. In fact the antioxidants (which are stressed by many health care companies as essential to optimize health) I take helped to reduce the stress on my body.

As far as calling it an inferior product, explain how, then, it has found it's way into the Physician's desk reference. What other non presciption nutritional products can say that? Show me a product that is produced under the stryngent standards of a drug when it doesn't have to for resale. I have no way of knowing what is actually in my hamburger because under the "food standard" the distributor does not have to reveal every ingredient and levels of them. How by self imposing "drug standard" processing can USANA products be considered sub standard? It's just not logical.

All the negative comments I read seem to be anger based not logically based. Instead of disputing personal experiences just look at the facts. Don't let the propaganda of someone with a personal agenda, like Barry Minkow be the bases of your understanding. When, under any circumstance, would you give more credit for the truth to a convicted felon than to your friends, family, Albert Einstein award winner or a perfect stranger for that matter.
