Inspired by an obsession with nutrition and health, Dr. Myron Wentz founded USANA in 1992.*<\/p>\n

\u201cI recognised many years ago that optimal cellular nutrition is key to maintaining long-term health. I believe, with the help of exceptional nutrition, people can live healthier and more rewarding lives.\u201d
\n-Dr. Myron Wentz
\nUSANA Founder & Chairman Emeritus<\/p>\n

Dr. Myron Wentz is an internationally recognised microbiologist, immunologist, and pioneer in the development of human cell culture technology and infectious disease diagnoses. In 1974, he founded Gull Laboratories, where he worked with human cell cultures and spent decades keeping them healthy and free from degeneration.<\/p>\n

This work led him to realise it takes more than simply providing cells with vitamins, minerals, and nutrients to keep them healthy\u2014they need the right nutrients, in the right form, and in the right amounts.<\/p>\n

He recognised how inadequate nutritional supplements were when compared to what he was feeding the cells in his laboratory\u2014which led him to create USANA. The name comes from Greek and Latin roots that mean \u201cTrue Health,\u201d embodying Dr. Wentz\u2019 vision to create the healthiest family on earth.<\/p>\n

30 Years of Successful Science<\/strong>
\nInspired by Dr. Wentz\u2019 legacy and an obsession with cellular health, our research and development team is comprised of more than 150 scientists with backgrounds in biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology, pharmacy, genetics, and sports science.<\/p>\n

They are shaping the future of nutritional technology in partnership with world-renowned research institutions and through collaboration with third-party research institutions to research and validate products before they are developed. Today, we manufacture products in both the U.S. and other countries, including India.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve spent the last 30 years perfecting nutritional supplements and technologies to address overall health. And all of this started from one man\u2019s determination to support healthy cells.<\/p>\n
