From Dr. Myron Wentz Usana México 2014 · · Jose Edgar Magallon Garcia
“I personally stand behind all USANA products and my seal of approval is on every single label that comes off the package line. This is the way things have always been done at USANA and the way that they continue to be done today. USANA will never be known for copycat products and I can also assure you that simply adding a new bell or whistle isn't how you make a product different or better.”

About Myron Wentz
Dr. Myron Wentz, founder and chairman emeritus of USANA Health Sciences, delivered a keynote speech at the 2025 USANA Live convention in which he described the cell as "the fundamental unit of life" and stated that health begins at the cellular level. He said that nourishing, protecting, and feeding cells with the right nutrients allows them to repair themselves, providing health and longevity. Wentz criticized most nutritional products available as inadequate for supplying the needs of the cell and protecting against environmental toxins. He introduced Dr. Katherine Armstrong as the company's new Chief Scientific Officer, saying she is there to strengthen USANA's foundation with "science-based evidence, rigor, and integrity." Wentz also said USANA should be "educators, advocates, protectors" and that the company will always be a cellular nutrition company. In a separate biographical video released in 2025, Wentz recounted his early career, including founding Gull Laboratories in 1974 and developing more than 30 FDA-approved diagnostic tests, most prominently the Epstein-Barr virus test. He said that after reading the label of a nutritional supplement, he concluded that the ingredients would not sustain cells in his laboratory, which led him to found USANA in 1992 to produce science-backed nutritional products made in a pharmaceutical-grade facility. Wentz stated that his vision for USANA was to "develop the highest quality science-based nutritional products possible." He also said he believes the role he was given in life "will not and should not end when my life ends" and that the mission must be carried on.
