You can make a change today, the choice is your's. I started my change a year ago and wouldn't change it for the world. We plant trees, give back to indigenous people, change peoples lives and this is just some of the things we do at NuSkin.

Theres one for all the Athlete's out there - Success Story
Neil Versfeld
My name is Neil Versfeld. I am a professional swimmer from South Africa. I competed in the Beijing Olympics in 2008 and placed 9th in the 200m Breaststroke. I am currently the fastest man in history in the 200 Yard Breaststroke, I achieved this last year(2009) when I won the NCAA championships for the University of Georgia(breaking Brendon Hansens record). I am the current South African and African record holder in the 200m Breaststroke both Long Course and Short Course.
In August 2009 I began using some of the Nuskin Enterprises products namely Pharmanex- LifePak Nano, G3 Juice,Overdrive and CordyMax. The benefits that I noticed were almost immediate. I was able to train a lot harder for a lot longer without feeling the breakdown of fatigue. Recovery time drastically shortened. Not only could I feel the positive affects in my athletic performance but also in my overall health. Since I started on Pharmanex I have not been sick at all. Not even a hint of a cold! Slight illnesses are common during intense training when athletes are breaking their bodies down, but with Pharmanex, nothing! Other benefits I have noticed is improved, eye sight, skin quality and hair quality-I have been having to cut my hair and nails way more frequently than I have in the past(can be seen as a positive or negative I guess!) In August prior to using the products I was scanned using the Biophotonic scanner and then I was scanned again in December. My score count went from a 35000 to a 59000! This improved score directly correlates with my improved athletic performance.
Since using the products in August I went on to narrowly miss the World Record in the 200m Breaststroke at the FINA world cup series. I came within 0.60sec of the World Record on three separate occasions. During the World Cup Series in October and November 2009, I walked away with 3 gold medals, 4 silver medals and 4 bronze medals.I am currently the World Cup record holder in the 200m Breaststroke.
My goals for the future include many more medals on the international stage but ultimately I know I am capable of achieving Olympic gold in London 2012 and I am grateful that Pharmanex is going to help me achieve this goal.
Thank you Pharmanex!
A company that makes a difference in so many ways..

Nourish the Children Helps Two New Countries
BRENT GODDARD ON THE INITIATIVE’S IMPRESSIVE GROWTH
TUESDAY, MARCH 1, 2011
While our mission to improve lives is woven throughout all the aspects of Nu Skin’s business, it is particularly evident in the smiles you, our distributors, create everyday for over one hundred thousand children through the Nourish the Children initiative.
As you may know, Nourish the Children is an initiative created and supported by Nu Skin, a for-profit company, that facilitates donations of purchased VitaMeal to non-profit partners all around the world. These charity partners then distribute VitaMeal to deserving children without charge or fees.
As director of Nourish the Children, I’m happy to say this life-saving initiative grew in the number of VitaMeal bags donated by an amazing 19.4 percent in 2010 versus 2009. In fact, we recently passed yet another impressive milestone. In January, the 210th million VitaMeal was donated, and during the last six month we have nourished an average of 107,258 children per day. Isn’t that incredible?
And now we are expanding our reach to even more areas around the world where Nourish the Children is needed. Beginning in January, VitaMeal donations by Nu Skin distributors, customers and their friends in Australia, New Zealand, New Caledonia and throughout the Pacific area are being sent to feed children in Fiji, where reports suggest that an estimated 40 percent of children are malnourished.
In addition to Fiji, we are also sending VitaMeal to Mongolia, a country in desperate need of our help. According to a recent National Nutrition Survey, one in every five Mongolian children suffers from stunted growth due to malnutrition and nearly 50 percent of children two years old and younger suffer from diseases related to vitamin deficiency.
I encourage you to commit today to feed a malnourished child. By adding a bag or two of VitaMeal to your ADR (Automatic Delivery Rewards), it will cost you a lot less than your daily soda or cup of coffee and yet it may mean the difference between life or death for a child.
Thank you for all the incredible work that you do. I am always impressed by the compassion and drive of our distributor force. You truly are a force for good.
