For more than 50 years, baby boomers have driven major trends such as fast food chains in 1960's and discount superstores in the 1990's. They were born after the second world war and make up one-third of the world’s population. Today:
They want to remain young-looking
They want to lose weight and feel healthy
They are concerned about maintaining optimal health
They also want to reduce the appearance of aging
This will continue to be a strong trend with future generations
“When I look forward to the year 2010, I see a clear one trillion-dollar business just in the growth of existing products and services in the wellness industry and that doesn’t include new products and services that are currently in the laboratory and coming down the pike.” -- Paul Zane Pilzer, best-selling author, entrepreneur, economic advisor in two presidential administrations, professor at NYU, and trend forecaster.
Today, the world’s leading causes of premature deaths are degenerative diseases:
Cardiovascular Disease (16.7 million)
Cancer (8.6 million)
Stroke (5.5 million)
Respiratory Disease (3.7 million)
Diabetes (990,000)
ACCORDING TO LEADING WORLD HEALTH AUTHORITIES:
600 MILLION SUFFER FROM HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE (Sources: World Health Organization, the Arthritis Foundation, the International Diabetes Foundation)
300 MILLION ARE OBESE
194 MILLION SUFFER FROM DIABETES
165 MILLION SUFFER FROM ARTHRITIS
130 MILLION SUFFER FROM ASTHMA
"There will be 5 million young Malaysians with chronic diseases by 2006. 10 million by 2020 if nothing is done about it." - New Straits Time, Malaysia, October 11, 2005
Why is this happening?
Increasing stress level
Environment becoming more toxic
Lack of exercise
High fat diet, smoking & drinking
Over-processing of foods for longer shelf life
We need over 45 essential nutrients to maintain optimal health. but statistics show that the majority of us don’t receive them.

One in four Malaysians could get dreaded disease
ACCORDING to statistics from the World Health Organisation (WHO), in 2000 there were 10.1 million new cases diagnosed, adding to the 22.4 million who were already living with cancer, and there were 6.2 million cancer-related deaths.
And in 2020, there could be almost a 50% increase in the number of cases, with 15.7 million newly diagnosed cases.
In Malaysia, according to the Malaysia National Cancer Registry (2002), in terms of risk, one in four Malaysians will get cancer in their lifetime. This means that out of the estimated 24,526,500 people in Malaysia, 6,131,625 are at risk of developing some sort of cancer during their lifetime (statistics from Rural Development Ministry, 2002).
As such, it is important that everyone, including children, understands and is informed about cancer.
Suzie’s proposed research aims to create such awareness, and so she has targeted her research to:
-investigate best practices and methods as employed by several reputable cancer centres and support mechanisms in the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, Japan, India and Malaysia in providing children with information of their parent's cancer diagnosis;
-understand Malaysian children's information-seeking behaviour and devise a set of core and generic data according to context, type, scope, platform and method of dissemination that is sensitive to their demographic circumstances.
-develop a test for information solutions that would lead to a national cancer agenda in Malaysia, in particular the information strategies that can help children to become informed via appropriate channels.
"Back at the turn of the 20th century, the five leading causes of death were all infectious diseases," Dr. Wentz says."The epidemic of degenerative diseases has developed throughout this century." -Myron Wentz, Ph.D., Founder and Chairman, USANA Health Sciences, Inc.
Degenerative Disease
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
A degenerative disease is a disease in which the function or structure of the affected tissues or organs will progressively deteriorate over time, whether due to normal bodily wear or lifestyle choices such as exercise or eating habits. Degenerative diseases are the opposite of infectious diseases.
BIOGRAPHY: Dr Myron Wentz
Dr. Myron Wentz, world-renowned microbiologist and immunologist, is an internationally recognized pioneer in the development of human cell culture technology and infectious disease diagnosis. In 1977, he developed the first commercially available test for diagnosing the Epstein-Barr virus. His test is still used in clinical laboratories today, and it has prevented immeasurable suffering and financial hardship by allowing early detection of this debilitating virus.
In 1992, Dr. Wentz founded USANA Health Sciences, a state-of-the-art manufacturer of vitamin and nutritional supplements of such high quality that they are listed in the prominent Physician’s Desk Reference (PDR). Today, USANA products are sold worldwide by Independent Distributors.
After successfully leading USANA to prominence in the field of optimal nutrition, Dr. Wentz created Sanoviv Medical Institute. Sanoviv is the only health and healing facility in the western hemisphere that practices the concept of whole body health and healing. Dr. Wentz has developed a unique program that effectively integrates oral health into overall health; a concept which he believes will be the model for all successful health and healing centers of the future. At Sanoviv, whole body health isn’t just a concept that’s merely talked about—it’s also practiced.
In 2001, Dr. Wentz and USANA joined the Children’s Hunger Fund in providing nutritional supplements to impoverished children throughout the world. The results have been phenomenal, with thousands of children throughout the world benefiting from the compassion and support of USANA’s donations. The partnership with the Children’s Hunger Fund is helping to make Dr. Wentz’s vision of a world free from pain and suffering a reality.
Ray D. Strand, M.D. is quickly becoming one of the world’s leading authorities in Nutritional Medicine. Dr. Strand is an international speaker, and consultant on health and preventive medicine as well as the author of, What Your Doctor Doesn’t Know About Nutritional Medicine May Be Killing You. A graduate of the University of Colorado Medical School, Dr. Strand has been in private family practice for over 30 years. "There are many nutritional products and programs on the market today. In my twenty-three years in family practice, I have never seen the significant improvements that I have witnessed in my patients on USANA Nutritionals.
