Not all fish oil supplements are made alike – find out how Usana Biomega is different

Fish oil that contains Omega 3 (DHA & EPA) is very important for brain development especially for baby and kids. It is actually important to everyone [to prevent from Alzheimer diseases and maintain strong memory] unless if you got no brain, if you can read my post pretty sure you are human and has a brain. There are many other info on Omega 3 that you can find on the internet, for example HERE . So, when it comes to choose the right Omega 3 supplements, why should you choose Usana Biomega above all?

Because;

Virtually free of contaminants such as heavy metals and mercury – through DOUBLE-MOLECULAR distillation process. Read HERE the comparison between molecular distilled and normal filtration. Does your Omega 3 supplements undergo advance distillation process like Usana Biomega? Or just normal filtration process?

Free of trans-fatty acids

One of the purest and highest quality in the market today

With Vitamin D and Natural lemon oil added

FREE FROM HEAVY METALS [SUCH AS MERCURY] & OTHER CONTAMINANTS

Yes, it is free from heavy metals and contaminants. Thanks to Usana advance technology in distillation which called HIGH VACUUM MOLECULAR distillation and distilled it twice for greater purity.

FREE FROM TRANS-FATTY ACIDS

Trans-fatty acid is a fat that is produced when liquid fat (oil) is turned into solid fat through a chemical process called hydrogenation. Eating a large amount of trans-fatty acids also raises blood cholesterol and risk of heart disease. [psssttt do you need a clue what type of food that contains high trans-fatty acids? FAST FOOD it is]

COMPLETE WITH VITAMIN D [GOOD FOR SUPPORTING BONE HEALTH]

WHY DO I NEED BIOMEGA DURING PREGNANCY?

To mothers and mother to be out there, maybe this is the perfect time to supplementing yourself with Usana Biomega and later give birth to a genius and healthy baby, insyallah

SOURCE OF FISH

IS BIOMEGA SUITABLE FOR KIDS TOO?

I paste herewith an email that I get from Usana Nutritionist regarding supplementing kids with Biomega

With all the benefits mentioned above, do you still wondering why it is called Biomega III (3) PLUS? It is the “PLUS” factor that set Usana far better than any other Omega 3 and EPO supplements.

Announcing winner of Biomega Contest

Sorry for delay announcing the winner of Biomega Contest. My earlier plan was to let my son pick the winner by lucky draw method. But , I don’t think it is possible to be done due to;

• kinda lazy to prepare small pieces of paper, write the names on it..yada yada
• the weather is super hot and i can easily get mad over nothing [yup thats me]
• Ichiro loves to eat paper so much, so I don’t want to let him involve with the small pieces of paper and later struggle to take it back from him
• weather is hot

Apart from lazy, i’m also busy with lotsssss of things, banyak nyer lahai alasan haku ni kan? Ni la melayu. Hihi.

By the way, weather is really testing my patience [i'm now sitting in the main hall with air-conditioning and fan on. The electric bill will cost my dad a bomb this month]

So, I think the best method to select the winner is by random.org. Here goes list of the participant.

There are few more, but some of them mcm tk berapa faham syarat contest. Well, there’s always next time, nnt I buat lagi contest you guys join ok . So for now, kiter tengok siapa yg kenaaaaaaaa…..[terkedek2 bawak dadu besar]

Dadu tunjuk nombor 1 daaaa…

So, nombor 1 dalam list adalah Cik Pid! Woot woott! Mcm tk aci kan Cik Pid menang , sbb dia adalah distributor Usana jugak..hehe tapi mmg my contest open to everyone, so kemenangan Cik Pid adalah sah I rolled the dice 3 times actually as for the first 2 throw, results adalah 6 and 5. Since org yg masuk contest ada 4 org jer, so I kene roll la buat kali ketiga.

So, Cik Pid nnt I hantar the biomega to you ok. Am thinking to make another contest in near future, so stay tune ok. Walaupon contest tk ramai yg join [due to maybe sbb i tk buat sticky post about the contest or maybe sbb u all tk minat supplements] but Biomega sales increase tremendously because of the contest. Yeah, waiting is sucks and lagi-lagi2 mcm I yg dok delay nk announce winner. So baiklah beli terus Ehe.

Usana promo & new blog layout!

Boo!! Hehehe. Am pretty excited with the new layout. So, excuse the “retard” behavior.

Usana Promo

As much as I excited about the layout, am also excited to announce that Usana promo is BACK. Yes, you read it right, Usana promo is BACK! With capital B. And now even better as you will get a free gift for any Usana products [nutrimeal, fibergy, essentials, proflavanol...all of them] that you wish to purchase. Sweet.

Click here for more details of the promotions. Kindly fill up the form attached on Usana promotions page to inquire more info or to place your order. You may refer the price list HERE for the product pricing. Am selling all products at “wholesale/harga borong” price.

Here are fliers [designed by Aini] for the promos, do make your way to my Usana Promotion page for more details.

New Layout

Well, I have been so busy for the past few days working with the web developer for the blog make over. Kudos to Aini! The original design was taken from elegantthemes website and since I want it to be more personalize, thus I hired her to get the job done for me.

Original design

Have been working with quite a number of web/graphic designer [including foreigner] ever since I started my blogging profession and frankly speaking, it’s rather hard to find a web developer/ graphic designer that’s really committed to their job. However, I can recommend few names of designer that I think can give you a good service. [I think la...]

Aini is highly recommended too. I got to know her and her twin sister Ain for quite sometime already. One thing I love about Aini [or better known as "sugarush"], she always deliver her work as what I’ve expected. She never complaint even though I kept changing my mind [dalam hati i tatau la kan hihih] and plus she never asked me to top up any additional amount shall I requested her to do something that is beyond her scope. To cut it short, she’s not really berkira and selalu kire cincai jer. Itu ciri-ciri kesukaan ku! Terbaek ok.

She is a full time web developer and her charges is quite reasonable [because I didn't bargain at all - not even a cent]. But there are also many so-called web designer yg sometime I rasa kerjanya adalah ala-ala sahaja but charging like crazy – nothing else outstanding about them except the hefty price. Huhu. Ohhh trust me, been there and done that.

Most important Aini has a very strong command in programming. Normally when I did something to my blog and caused it to be haywire, I will for sure run to Aini. Hehe. But now, since I’m using layout designed by her so i think she must has the backup file ready. Well, she better has!

Oh here is a screen shot of Aini’s latest work. A wedding supply boutique own by her twin sister Ain “Creatively Designed”. I like it. Neat and attractive.

It’s the mother who throws tantrum…

Ichiro with “ciur” . It is such a bittersweet moment, eventho it wasn’t for real.

Ok, I’m pretty busy with Ichiro nowadays. Sometimes it need more than a great patience to handle him. Knowing me, I’m lacking in that department. But, I tried my best to control my temper as I kept reminds myself that he’s just a baby and that’s what baby does best —> Yeah testing adult patience.

Since, I’m now in PJ , hence I got to look after my son during day time alone. Normally, my mom will give me an extra hand, but since I’m in PJ and nobody at home except the maid, thus I need to look after Ichiro myself. Which once a while gives me a real goosebumps, as I don’t know what to expect for tomorrow. Will he be cranky? Will he cooperate?

Not yet darling…

But whatever it is, yeah I want him to be always with me. I can opt to leave him with my mom back at my hometown but afraid that I will miss him so badly later. So angkut sekali la

This entry of mine can be deceiving. It sounds like my son is too demanding and cranky until I can’t stand it. Well, the truth is I think, I’m the one who needs to learn to control my temper and patience when dealing with 8 months old baby. Nothing is wrong with Ichiro and to think again he’s not that demanding compare to other baby that I’d met before. Not at all.

Pardon me, am just throwing my tantrum here….

3 generation – grandpa, daddy and baby

Tapi bila I nak naik hangen, tiba-tiba Ichiro cakap “bumm bumm” [his favourite word at the moment], terus tk jadi…aha comel la plak.

Enjoy random pics of Ichiro. Mommy love you so much, please just bear with me ok. Your daddy spoilt me, so blame him on my attitude.

Oh btw, am about to launch new promotion for every purchase of Usana products via me. Will update the details very very soon [hope can get it ready within these few days] and be sure to stay tune to Mr & Mrs Imran as this blog is going to change its skin again [yeah again...] On the biomega contest result, the entry has been drafted and about to be publish, hope I can finish it by this week ok. So sorry for the delay, but yeah the biomega is ready to be ship to the winner. I just bought it last week.

I miss my sewing machine and can’t wait to have my hands on it next week! Am thinking to offer some of sewing project for free to my readers, errr do you guys think you want to wear things that I sew? Well, I make sure it’s pretty la kan. Hohoh. Well, we talk about it later la. I’m not very firm about it yet.

Usana TOP DISTRIBUTOR OF ASIA PACIFIC

Well, sorry there’s no really an update today as I slept late last night after chatting with my friend. But, would like to share something, this entry is not for me to brag or boast about my achievement, but it solely just a place for me to record my journey to millionaire, the ups and downs and recognition.

This morning I received one SMS from Usana, it sounds something like this [disebabkan too excited I've mistakenly deleted the message, silly me];

Dear Ainol, we want to confirm your attendance for USANA AP Convention in Hong Kong. You are one of the TOP 25 DISTRIBUTORS OF ASIA PACIFIC. Please kindly call me for further info – Sabrina Khoo

Well, am pretty sure I didn’t read it wrongly. It does says ASIA PACIFIC in the message. I have been underestimate myself all these while. Yeah, I thought to be top in Malaysia is possible but for Asia Pacific level, I might need some times to go that far, but I’ve prove it to myself that I did it in less than 6 months! Wow!

Thanks to Allah and all my downlines. But, to achieve this achievement, it was not that easy. It might appear easy to your eyes, but behind the curtain, I worked so hard promoting the product and train my downlines. I even organized an online school for my downlines to teach them more about the products and guide them so that they could taste the sweetness of success.

The online school that I created for my downlines [active in business only] is a program where I give them an article every week to be read and answer the questions that I’ve prepared based on the article. This is to ensure that they really do their homework, read the article, gain more knowledge about Usana and ace their skills and make sure they know very well things that they sell. Other than that, I also set up a weekly sales and leadership target for them.

Yeah I do this all for free, so that all of us can success and excel together [especially my downlines]. This is one of many example efforts of mine, so yeah it’s not that easy to be acknowledge at Asia Pacific level. But surely worth.

So, to all Wow Now, find the Inner Winner in you and double up your effort [remember i said, there's no easy way to become rich - No]

Alhamdullilah.

p/s: am not going to the convention tho, hahaha sbb nyer i didn’t plan to go at all and flight ticket and ticket event bukan sponsor by Usana ok. Hoho. But cool, tkper kali ni tk sponsor, I make sure next time i boleh pergi and sponsor my downline yg “PALING HEBAT” to join the convention. Ohhh i mmg pampered my downline.

Usana Testimonial – Diabetes

Posted by Mrs Imran on Feb 18, 2010
Filed Under Testimonial, Usana | 0 comments

Wanna share some feedback that I received from my Usana customers. But, before that I couldn’t emphasize more on the cruciality of taking supplements and vitamins. Supplement is seriously important to the health. In case if you guys wondering why healthy people like you and me [alhamdullilah ] still in need to take supplement every day, I list out some reasons that I can think of and some facts from clinical studies that I read on the internet. Kalau orang yg sihat segar bugar juga perlu makan supplement, apatah lagi yg berpenyakit…

So why consume supplement?

1) You think you are healthy, but little did you know that inside, you are actually deteriorating and aging fast [trust me, you never know what is happening inside, it might be too late when you discovered that things are actually broken badly]

2) Veggies and fruits nowadays are no longer as fresh as previous days. Due to soil, environment, pollution and etc. Thus, we can’t simply rely on the veggies and fruits that we eat everyday to ensure good health.

3) Plus, from what I read, you need to take more than an apple a day [up to 18!] and satu kuali besar sayuran to get the appropriate amount of nutrients that your body need. It will be much easier if you just consume 2 Usana tablets a day. Huhu. Shortcut isn’t it great?

4) Breast cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, gout and etc are pretty scary. Many degenerative diseases are caused by damage cell, oxidative stress and lack of antioxidant. Thanks to fast food, industrial chimney, carbon monoxide, toxic, make up and many other harmful substance.

How to know that I’m not healthy inside? Physically I am as strong as a horse [or whateverr]

1. Do you breath? [don't say no, fret that you are ghost if you don't breath, please don't haunt my blog ok..err ghost]
2. Do you use make up? or toiletries?
3. Do you eat fast food?
4. Do you work? Is your work killing you? = work under pressure
5. Do you have a hectic lifestyle? i.e juggling between works, gym, family, business, part time work and etc.
6. Do you always feel tired and lazy?
7. Do you sick?
8. Do you eat processed food? canned food? instant noodles?
9. Do you? errrrr I run out of idea already….
10. Do you kill your pet? Hahaha, you must be seriously under depress then.

If you do at least a couple of things that I mention above, I highly recommend you to consume supplement for your health sake.

Below are pictures of a device [ i don't know what's the device name] that shows glucose level readings. Syuhaidah purchased Usana from me few months back since she said , she needs supplement to control her diabetes, and she’s getting herself the best supplement in the world

BEFORE USANA

Top image represents before meal (FBS). The lower one represents after meals (RBS).

WITH USANA

Morning readings – readings being taken 3 times, to ensure consistency

After meals – readings being taken 3 times, to ensure consistency
This is what she wrote on her blog dpenguinplace :

“When the numbers behaved well especially after the visits to Dr H, I would celebrate by indulging in ice creams or lots of rice or durians. Reward . 
 When the numbers don’tbehaved well, I would feel very frustrated (down), and then would go crazy withchocolates, ice creams and lots more. Punishment . 
 How lah like this?”

This is how the numbers would look like last year [ to the extend that I do not wantto do any self inflicting pain anymore, it is annoying ] 
 *self inflicting pain -poking my fingers for a drop of blood*

Then after much efforts which is :

The morning readings (before meal) has been consistent. Yippie The after meals is the ones that I loved most. Especially yesterday’s (29-1). I had lunch accompanied by the famous DAIM dessert cake at IKEA and then came back home, had durians. And did not take any medications (NO MEDICATION) at all throughout the whole day. Alhamdullilah. Wohooo . [ok, for some would say, alah tadek lahrendah mana (not that low) .. for me it is an achievement ].

The below are the typical range of blood glucose level for those with diabetic :

Pre-prandial plasma glucose (before a meal) : 70-130 mg/dl (5.0-7.2 mmol/l)

Postprandial plasma glucose (after a meal) : <180 mg/dl (<10.0 mmol/l)

I heard that USANA does other wonderful things too. Anyone wants to know more? I

could direct you to the right person. [<---ME, mrs imran, ehe]

pst : USANA also could help in slimming down (I heard lah). [haha this is rather cute]
