A Keen Kritique Of The New Galvanic Spa And Business Opportunity

Okay, now I have only done half my face twice (just to see if this thing would actually work) and WOW, what a difference! If you cover up each half while examining the other, you can really get a visual as to how much contrast there is between the two sides. It is quite creepy looking! The right side is firmer and healthier looking. Whereas, the left side has a droopy, puffy look. I have spent money on everything from OIL of Olay to the Dermitage stuff online and have never gotten any results, much less results this great. I can't wait to start doing the rest of my body with this thing. I have heard that it is great at diminishing strech marks, too. I can already see my scar under my lip starting to fade and I've had it since I was three. I feel so strongly about this device that I have now become a distributor. So, if you would like one for yourself or you want me to email you some more pictures, (I have plenty) then send me an email at keenk@live.com. I am so excited about this that I can't stop talking about it and I'm driving everyone crazy! I quit smoking back in April after 28 years. Mainly, because I was beginning to notice the effects on my skin and my aging appearance. A little vain, I know, but what do you expect? I am a woman. By the way, would you like to quit smoking, too? Then give hypnosis a try. It worked for me! There are also a couple of links at the bottom of this page that will provide some resources for you in your quest to stop smoking and extend the years and quality of your life. Anyway, I am so grateful to have a line of products that can actually reverse the signs of aging caused by so many years of neglect and abuse.

Be thrilled! Big news out of Purdue University!
The news just gets better and better for all of us that don't plan on moving into our "Golden years" looking like a prune or spending our hard earned money on plastic surgeons, Botox injections, collagen fillers and any of the other temporary and pricey "solutions" running around these days!

The article focuses on the exclusive findings of ArNOX (scientists are saying this is Nobel Prize winning material), but take solace in the fact that the same people that discovered this wrinkling rascal are the same ones that will be releasing the exclusive remedy to block ArNOX from aging our skin this October! (Man, I love these brainy scientists!)

We're living in exciting times! With Nu Skin's new Galvanic Spa II and the remarkable new gels that iron out wrinkles (in 10 minutes!), the Tru Face Essence Ultra that brings your elastin levels back to that of an 20 year old or your money back, and now Age-Loc (ArNOX blocker) heading our way, rest assured, no one will recognize your age anymore! (Is it October yet??)

For the insightful, entrepreneurial types: There are hundreds of millions of people out there hungry for safe and effective solutions that guarantees to deliver results you can see, and what I mentioned here is only the beginning. You have the opportunity to take a large share of a rapidly expanding market because of one simple fact... you are finding out about this before the rest of the world finds out through massive media attention. In real estate it's location, location, location. For the smart entrepreneur, it's Timing, Timing, Timing!

So, if you would like more information, then click on the link below. Get in on this exciting breakthrough before it hits the market in January. As for me, I'll be at the convention on Oct. 23rd waiting in line for the exclusive pre-launch of AgeLOC!! So, look for even more dramatic results to follow. See ya soon!

ageLOC ingredients have been shown to prevent the expression of free radicals associated with the arNOX enzyme. This prevention may help slow the signs of aging that may be caused by accelerated free radical production.

Newest update! These pictures were taken after six treatments. Once again, if you cover up each half while examining the other, you can really get a visual as to how much contrast there is between the two sides. The visual difference stands out more that way than just looking straight at it. I am amazed at how this thing works!

Can you imagine using this thing on a regular basis for years to come? I am astounded by this technology. It is truly remarkable! Can you notice how the treated side is sleeker and more contoured than the untreated side? It makes the other side appear puffy and, I think, somewhat unhealthy.. Well, this is going to be my last half face review, as I am getting anxious to do the other side of my face.

This picture represents what I would expect to look like had I been making healthy lifestyle decisions, but without any plastic surgery or other intervening invasive procedures along the way. Thank God for the knowledge of the Galvanic Spa! From now on, I am taking an active role in my health and skin care. This should convince everyone, young and old alike, to take my advice and do the same. We should care for our skin, eat a balanced diet full of antioxidants, take nutritional supplements, protect our environment and stay physically, mentally, physiologically and financially fit!

This picture represents the many aspects of accelerated aging that we commonly observe and I'm only 44 years old. These accelerated changes are due to both external and internal factors. You can see the aging-the freckling, the wrinkles, the pronounced loss of skin elasticity. I wasn't very diligent about protecting my skin in the past, as you can tell. I smoked cigarettes for 28 years, tanned every year since I was probably eleven, wasn't conscientious about my diet, didn't take nutritional supplements and I let stress rule my life. Those days are so OVER!

It has been awhile since I've updated my pictures due to the fact that I was using the Nu Skin 180 Anti-Aging system and it had broken out my face in a slight rash and it was very dry. I was told that I needed to use it sparingly at first and, of course, I didn't. I must admit that I had been using Usana's Sense skin care products with the spa since the beginning, but ran out and thought that I would try the 180. I have to honestly say, though, that I like the Sense much better. I found a sample vial of Sense' perfecting essence and applied it and the tru face essence ultra for these pics. The tru face essence ultra feels simply fabulous, although I'm not quite sure if there is any noticable changes from it's use. The Sense daily skin care line has shown the best results in the appearance of my skin, so I'm sticking to what I know works from now on. On these pictures, you can even tell that the scar under my lip has faded tremendously. You can tell that the two sides are getting more even, too.

Hi everyone! I hope everyone had a joyous holiday season. I got a little side tracked from my updates, but managed to get some pictures here and there of my treatments. I finally got some time to upload them and place them on here. I am having a hard time catching up the left side with the right side because I can't seem to just do the left side. It just looks so good that I want to keep it going to see how much younger looking I can possibly get. It's such a blessing. I have finally gotten back on my Sense skin care system and still have a few blemishes from the 180 system. I decided not to purchase any of the true face essence ultra, either. Even though it does feel fabulous, I just don't see any obvious results from using it. It would probably be great for someone with really dry skin, as it is very oily, but that's all I can tell. Unless you just love spending extra money on luxury items to pamper yourself, don't go in debt having to have it. Alright, hopefully next time I'll have both sides of my face looking the same! lol

I started both Nu Skin and Usana Distributorship's at the same time and have come to realize that usana is a much more appealing opportunity for people in general. The Spa, although an awesome anti-aging device is somewhat difficult to sell at it's current price. Also, the Nu Skin products in general are not , in my opinion, as high quality as Usana's are. Usana offers a variety of products that stand up to their high reputation and they do not need to resort to underhand pressure tactics to gain new members, either. Which says a lot to me. Alot of Usana members are highly sucessful people in various fields such as Doctors, nurses, Lawyers and speaks volumes to Usana's reputation! The sub-group upline of Nu Skin that I am a part of has shown me less than desirable practices that I really feel uncomfortable in promoting. So, I have decided to stop promoting Nu skin as a business opportunity and onIy sell the spas. I am grateful for the opportunity Usana has provided me and look forward to a healthy and rewarding lifestyle sharing Usana's passion and vision with others and helping them discover and live their dreams, too. The 10 reasons Usana should be your opportunity of choice are below:

Their Stability - USANA is a solid, publicly traded company that was founded in 1992. We have passed the pioneering stage where many new companies fail and are currently entering the momentum stage where fortunes are created.

Experience - Dr. Myron Wentz, the Founder and Chairman of the Board of USANA Health Sciences, has years of hands-on experience in international business. USANA has a solid management team with years of successful business leadership.

Quality - USANA manufactures and packages many of its own products in its own state-of-the-art facilities. USANA guarantees the quality and potency of all its products.

Credibility - World-class athletes, best-selling authors, motivational speakers, and experienced business professionals have already joined forces with USANA.

Expert Training - As a USANA Distributor you have the opportunity to be trained by the best in the world in the areas of health, wealth, and empowerment.

Leading-Edge Technology - USANA develops its products using the latest research. The company has collaborated on research with scientists at the Linus Pauling Institute and has sponsored unique research at the Cardiology Research Institute in Moscow.

Freedom - You are free from the typical work week. Your life is on your schedule.

Exploding Market - Seventy-six million-baby boomers are aging, and they are looking for products that make them look and feel better. USANA is designed to help you meet this demand by offering quality products in a nutrition market that has tripled over the last five years.

Fair and Lucrative Compensation - USANA's compensation plan allows all people an opportunity to succeed.

Incentives - From traveling the world to staying at the finest hotels and relaxing in splendor, USANA Associates are treated like celebrities as they reach for the stars.

Founded in 1992 by microbiologist and immunologist Dr. Myron Wentz, USANA Health Sciences is a science-based company that develops scientifically advanced nutritional, personal-care, and weight management products. The name "USANA" derives from Greek and Latin and means "true health."

USANA was founded with a mission to manufacture the highest quality products without compromise, products that people can trust. Because poor manufacturing can destroy great science, USANA is one of the few companies to manufacture most of its products in its own state-of-the-art facility. To ensure that the formulas developed in USANA's laboratories are produced consistently, the same process is followed each time manufacturing begins. When raw ingredients first arrive at USANA, they are immediately quarantined until they are tested for purity, potency, and quality. If an ingredient fails to meet set standards, it is rejected and returned to the supplier.

As the tablets are being manufactured, they are tested for hardness, thickness, disintegration, fragility, and weight uniformity. An inappropriate thickness can indicate an imbalance in ingredients, just as a slight variance in compression can result in tablets being too hard to disintegrate in the stomach, or too soft, causing them to break apart in the bottle.

Before packaging, the final product is tested once more for potency and purity. After the products are packaged, the foil seals, labels, and cotton are double-and triple-checked by both machines and people. Each step in the quality assurance process is accompanied by a written, detailed procedure.

Every dietary supplement produced by USANA carries a potency guarantee, which ensures that what is stated on the label is actually contained in the product. The foundation of USANA's nutritional system is the ESSENTIALS%u2122, a comprehensive vitamin, antioxidant, and mineral dietary supplement that contains more than 40 active ingredients and extracts, far more than the 24 vitamins and minerals commonly considered to be adequate. The ESSENTIALS (Mega Antioxidant and Chelated Mineral), Proflavanol® 90, and the HEALTHPAK 100%u2122 AM/PM packs have been exhaustively tested by NSF International and have been found to contain all ingredients at the labeled amounts. NSF is an independent, not-for-profit organization that helps protect consumers by certifying products and writing standards for food, water, air and consumer goods.

Currently, the Food and Drug Administration has not finalized Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for dietary supplements, as they are required to do under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act. Rather, Congress has initially stated that dietary supplement GMP should be modeled after foods. Because of this statement, many supplement manufacturers have chosen to follow GMP for foods. USANA, however, voluntarily follows GMP for pharmaceuticals as the basis for its quality assurance program in the manufacturing of all of its products, meaning USANA treats nutritional supplements with the same care that goes into the manufacturing of pharmaceutical products.

Similar to guidelines in many other countries, pharmaceutical GMP are federally mandated guidelines for the production of over-the-counter drugs; they are considerably stricter than the food GMP followed by many United States supplement manufacturers. Pharmaceutical GMP cover virtually every aspect of drug manufacturing, including facility design and maintenance, raw material specification and control, supplier validation, product design and testing, employee training, process control, finished product release, and complaint handling.

In several countries around the world, supplements are more highly regulated than in the United States. In Australia, for example, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), which regulates dietary supplements, mandates that manufacturers follow a set of GMP identical to pharmaceutical GMP in the United States. As an Australian supplier, USANA is regularly inspected and audited by the TGA to ensure that we meet their GMP standards. Most recently, USANA was audited in June 2006 by the TGA and passed with ease.

Aside from meeting the criteria of regular TGA audits, USANA has voluntarily obtained additional third-party verification of GMP status. Most recently, USANA's Salt Lake City, Utah, manufacturing facility has been certified to be in compliance with GMP requirements set forth in NSF/ANSI Standard 173-2006, Dietary Supplements by NSF International. According to NSF, "GMP registration reflects [a] continued commitment to ensuring quality and satisfaction and gives companies confidence that their organization operates in conformance to established GMP."

It is USANA's mission to develop and provide the highest quality, science-based products. By rigorously testing each product for potency and purity and by voluntarily following pharmaceutical GMP, USANA sets the standard for excellence in dietary supplement manufacturing. Once again this is proof that USANA products are truly Nutritionals You Can Trust.

POTENCY GUARANTEE
USANA is committed to the highest standards of product design and manufacturing, and we guarantee the potency of every nutritional product we sell.

Our company follows internationally accepted Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) set out for the pharmaceutical industry. As such, we track every detail of product manufacture from start to finish-from the verification of raw materials to final testing of finished products. Standard tests include those for potency, purity, disintegration, weight, hardness, thickness, and stability.

For these reasons and more, you can be confident in the potency and overall quality of USANA Products. We truly provide Nutritionals You Can Trust.

USANA's exclusive anti-aging complex, Dermal Surface Renewal (DSR) technology, can help you turn back the clock. Now more powerful than ever, DSR works in two ways--to help reduce the appearance of existing signs of aging today and to help prevent the appearance of new lines and wrinkles in the future.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There's no need for injections, chemical peels, or cosmetic surgery. Now you can see dramatic results without taking drastic measures. DSR is an incredibly effective anti-aging technology, and only Sensé has it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How DSR technology works
As the skin ages, lines and wrinkles begin to form as the natural cell-renewal process slows down. The skin starts to thin and sag as collagen and elastin break down, and the skin tone can become uneven and blotchy. DSR is an extraordinary, acid-free formulation that can visibly refine the complexion, leaving your skin looking healthy, youthful, and beautiful.

Reduce Past Signs of Aging

The appearance of lines and wrinkles is reduced. Marine-source ingredients work quickly to penetrate deep into the skin, plumping lines and wrinkles, and making skin look years younger.
Skin looks and feels smoother and firmer. DSR blended with other natural ingredients helps boost the skin's firmness and elasticity. It is clinically proven to increase firmness from deep within the skin.
Skin is rejuvenated. Unique complex energizes the skin to keep it looking smooth, hydrated, and supple.
Complexion is bright and even. The acid-free formulation does not irritate the skin, keeping it soothed and calm, while skin brighteners counteract hyper-pigmentation, blotchiness, and mottled texture for a healthy, vital appearance.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The future of your skin is transformed with a unique scientific discovery-MMP inhibitors.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reduce Future Signs of Aging
The skin contains natural enzymes, or MMPs, that break down the extracellular matrix--proteins that keep skin looking youthful--leading to lines and wrinkles. These MMPs become more active as the skin ages. DSR contains MMP inhibitors that reduce the activity of these enzymes to help slow the appearance of premature aging.

Okay now, I've given you lots of information to ponder on why Usana Health Sciences is such a KEEN opportunity. When joining the Keen Team you will be assuring yourself the training and support needed to succeed in this business. My team and I look forward to working with you one on one to assist you in your growth, both personally and professionally. So, if you decide that you would like more information, please fill in the reply form on the contact me page of my website or email me and let's get started on a new "YOU" in 2009!!

God Bless You and I'll be in touch.
