The 75% Solution - Is Usana Overpriced?
One of the interesting parts in this video is the information that USANA believes that if they had to market their drugs traditionally, through a normal retail distributor chain, that price for their vitamins would be over $200. Increasingly, I see this as one of the critical representations made by the company -be our distributor and sell vitamins directly to the public at a substantial savings to them.
Is it true? Or are the vitamins horribly overpriced and marked-up to feed the compensation owed to the upstream, ultimately 75% of it flowing to just 2% of all distributors?

Steve;
Nutritional supplements are not a different species from any over the counter drugs.
My drug of choice in morning is caffeine.
