What Are USANA Foods?
Virtually all degenerative diseases that plague today's world are caused or exacerbated by the deterioration of the modern diet. USANA Foods were developed to provide great tasting, high-quality macronutrients your body needs to maintain health and feel great. These convenient, low-glycemic foods can be used along with the Essentials and Optimizers to complete your healthy diet. Many USANA Foods contain beneficial ingredients like dietary fiber, soy protein, and potassium. To achieve and maintain a healthy body, your body's cells need specific nutrients (high-quality protein, varied fibre sources, low-glycemic carbohydrates, beneficial fats, vitamins, and minerals). When your body's cells lack these vital nutrients, they do not function properly. At USANA, we understand that good nutrition includes both micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, and other compounds we consume in small amounts) and macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats that make up the bulk of our food). The primary goal of good nutrition is to promote lifelong good health. This state of well-being implies the optimal performance of all body systems.
The Right Macronutrients
It is vitally important that your diet include the right types of each class of macronutrient:
* The right carbohydrates are either complex carbohydrates or fibre, and have a low glycemic index. Complex carbohydrates and fibre generally supply additional healthy trace elements and phytonutrients, as well as energy.
* A healthy diet includes a variety of protein sources including complete proteins, which contain all of the essential amino acids.
* Beneficial fats are high in essential fatty acids and low in saturated fatty acids. No more than 10% of your total daily calories should be derived from saturated fat.
Unfortunately, the normal diet in today's society includes only one-half to two-thirds of the fibre necessary for optimal health. The positive impact of a fibre is increased when there is a concurrent reduction in the amount of saturated fat consumed.
Glycemic Index: What It Means for You
The glycemic index is a way of measuring the rate at which carbohydrates are broken down and appear in the blood as simple sugars. Those foods that result in a rapid rise in blood sugar have a high-glycemic index. Carbohydrates that are broken down slowly and cause only a moderate increase in blood sugar have a low-glycemic index. Some carbohydrates fall in between. High-glycemic foods provide quick energy, but it is usually short lived and hunger soon returns. Low-glycemic foods provide greater satiety and sustained energy.
Virtually all convenience foods and many meal replacement and diet products on the market today are high glycemic.3
USANA Foods
New USANA Foods are a healthy source of complex carbohydrates, complete proteins, and beneficial fats. SoyaMax, based on high quality soy protein, provides complete and balanced amino acids. And some USANA Foods, such as Fibergy Plus are low-fat foods. These delicious snack bars and drink mixes are formulated to be low glycemic to provide sustained energy throughout the day. USANA Foods have been developed by USANA's team of scientists to help take the guesswork out of proper nutrition. These precision formulations not only provide the correct amounts of healthy carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, they also taste great and are convenient. More importantly, they will help you build a lasting foundation for true health for tomorrow.

Rev3 Energy Drink
{
}
As our schedules become busier day by day, energy drinks are growing in popularity among a large percentage of the population. Unfortunately, a majority of the mass-market energy drinks available today do not support cellular health, and a number of them have even been banned in some places. Rev3 Energy is different. Formulated by USANA scientists as a healthy alternative, Rev3 Energy gives you the energy you need along with real nutritional value from beneficial vitamins, antioxidants, and cellular energy components.
Cleaner
Most mass-market energy drinks are made with high-glycemic sugars that give a quick boost of energy followed by a crash about an hour later. This encourages over-consumption, because after the crash, another hit of sugar (and calories) is needed for more energy. Made with no artificial flavors, sweeteners, preservatives, or colors, each refreshing Rev3 is low glycemic to provide longerlasting energy and a natural boost. And because there is no energy crash, you aren’t left with a craving for more sugar.
Smarter
Rev3 products use caffeine derived from all-natural teas that have been proven to support health. At 80mg per serving, Rev3 provides a healthy level of caffeine to improve mental alertness and stamina. Recent research indicates caffeine may also have positive effects on weight maintenance and mental function.*
Stronger
In addition to caffeine, Rev3 uses powerful, energy-producing ingredients to improve the body’s response to stress and fatigue and support efficient cellular energy production. Important antioxidants and phytonutrients also provide free-radical defense to help maintain optimal cellular health.*
