NFL Policy On Steroids & Related Banned Substances

Below please find the NFL Policy on Steroids & Related Banned Substances. 



  • Appendix G (below) is a memo from John A. Lombardo who served as the NFL Advisor for Anabolic/Androgenic Steroids & Related Substances.
  • The 3rd paragraph of  NFL Policy Apendix G (below) addresses 1994 Dietary Law in detail.
  • 1994 Dietary Law is one of the reasons there are such variances in the quality of manufacturing as it pertains to nutritional supplements. 
  • The ramifications of the 1994 Dietary Law are a major reason why all serious athletes must strongly consider one of the four pharmaceutical grade nutritional supplement companies recognized by the Nutrisearch Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplmentation. The Nutrisearch Comparative Guide is  an independant, 3rd party entity created solely to evaluate nutrional goods by utilizing a uniform evaluation process.
  • These four nutritional companies abide by the same GOOD MANUFACTURING PRACTICES and are held to the same standards as companies in the pharmaceutical industry


For access to the entire policy please contact me directly.

Jabari Sandifers "Fuel On And Off The Court"

I WAS INTRODUCED TO USANA ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO AND WHAT A DIFFERENCE IT HAS MADE IN MY LIFE.  

LIKE A LOT OF OTHER TEENAGE BASKETBALL PLAYERS, I HAVE A FULL PLATE RIGHT NOW.  

I AM BALANCING MY COMMITMENTS TO MY SCHOOL WORK AND PLAYING AS MUCH BASKETBALL AS I CAN. 

THE INITIAL DIFFERENCE I NOTICED WAS MY FOCUS IN SCHOOL.  I TRADED THE CEREAL, QUAKER GRANOLA BAR AND APPLESAUCE FOR A USANA CHOCOLATE PROTEIN SHAKE AND PROTEIN BAR TO START MY DAY.  INSTANTLY I NOTICED I HAD A TON MORE ENERGY AND MORE FOCUS. 

I ALSO STARTED TO INCORPORATE THE VITAMINS, PROTEIN BARS AND SHAKES IN BETWEEN MY PRACTICES AND STRENTH TRAINING; AGAIN, THE SAME GREAT RESULTS. 

AS AN ATHELETE I TRY TO MAKE GOOD CHOICES TO FUEL MY BODY, USANA PRODUCTS ARE A GOOD FIT FOR ME AND MY NUTRITIONAL GOALS.

USANA Olympic Spotlight: USA Luge

It’s the fastest sport on ice. And USANA will be taking the thrill ride along with USA Luge when they hit the Vancouver ice Feb. 13–17.



Thrill ride is probably the right way to put it, too.

Even though lugers are on their backs throughout the whole race, it’s no restful experience. Racers fly down a winding course, inches away from the ice below, banking high around corners, and reaching speeds approaching 80 and 90 miles per hour while dropping an average of 30 stories in elevation.

The sport first appeared in the Olympics in 1964, but USA Luge first achieved Olympic success at the 1998 Olympic Winter Games in Nagano, Japan, taking home silver and bronze medals in the doubles’ competition. They turned in a repeat performance four years later in Salt Lake City, and finished just out of the medals in fourth place in men’s and women’s singles during the 2006 Winter Games in Torino, Italy. Since 1994, USA Luge has also been a force in senior and junior international competition, earning almost 550 medals—making USA Luge the most successful Winter Olympic National Governing Body.

USANA is a proud sponsor of USA Luge, supplying them with the nutrition they need to fly down the course and onto the medal stand in Vancouver.

Don’t miss the action from the fastest sport on ice, Feb. 13–17. Check your local listing for times.

USANA Olympic Spotlight: Cross Country Canada

It’s not surprising the Nordic Vikings were the world's first cross-country skiers. There is evidence that the Scandinavian warriors used skis for transportation, hunting, and even in military battle. Eventually becoming popular all over the world, cross-country skiing was part of the first Winter Olympics in 1924.


Utilizing every major muscle group, cross-country skiing is one of the most difficult endurance sports in the Olympics, and USANA is ready to support Cross Country Canada in their pursuit for the gold. Help USANA cheer them on in their events February 15–28.

For many of the Cross Country Canada team, Torino was their first trip to the Olympics. Building on that experience, this stellar team has shown amazing improvement over the past four years and is now ready to contend with the best athletes in the sport.

With the strongest men’s and women’s teams Canada has ever assembled, many competing have already proven their talent by winning medals at the World Championships and the World Cup.



Cross Country Canada competes in the two styles of cross-country skiing at the Olympics:

Classical: Similar to ski-exercise machines, skiers use a straight stride and must stay within predetermined parallel tracks; this was the only style allowed at the Olympics until 1988.
Freestyle: Reminiscent of speed skaters, skiers push off with each ski on each stride; this type of skiing is much faster than classical.
Though it has a rich history, don’t think that cross-country skiing is a thing of the past. Cross-country ski competition is experiencing a revolution, attracting fans from all over the world. And Cross Country Canada is at the forefront of the sport. This is why USANA is a proud sponsor of Cross Country Canada, supplying them with the nutrition they need make it onto the medal stand in Vancouver.

Be sure to watch on January 29 as Cross Country Canada selects their Olympic team.

USANA Olympic Spotlight: Speed Skating Canada

USANA Olympic Spotlight: Speed Skating Canada
There’s the flash of metal blades. The reflections gliding around the glass surface. The tucked figures with arms swimming through the air. The fine mist of ice left as the racers exit the corners.

Those are the sights of one of the sports featured at the first Winter Olympics in 1924 in Chamonix, France—long-track speed skating. But speed skating appeared in Canada almost a century earlier, with the first recorded race taking place on the St. Lawrence River in 1854. And in 1887, the Amateur Skating Association of Canada—a precursor to Speed Skating Canada—became the country's first sport association.



Canada also had early success internationally, bringing home the World Speed Skating Championship in 1897, but didn’t earn an Olympic medal in the event until the 1932 in Lake Placid, New York. Since then, Speed Skating Canada has totaled 28 Olympic medals—including six golds—in the men and women’s long track competitions.

The sport’s younger, more compact sibling, short track speed skating, was officially granted full medal status in 1992 at the Albertville Winter Games. Speed Skating Canada has dominated the relatively short history of the sport, taking home a total of 20 medals—second only to South Korea.

USANA is proud to help power Speed Skating Canada around the icy track in Vancouver as they try to expand their total of 48 medals.


Event times are spread throughout the 2010 Winter Olympics, so check your local listings for dates and times so you can watch Speed Skating Canada in Vancouver.

The USANA Difference (Opportunity)

It's only natural and expected to approach any new opportunity with hint of skepticism, but once things check out you must then ask yourself, "what am I waiting for? What do I really have to lose?"

I can promise you thatg with USANA, the risk to benefit ratio is heavily tilted in your favor. "How can I be so sure?" you might ask. God brings people IN and OUT of your life for a reason. In 2009 he happened to introduce me to several families of USANA affiliates that made me realize that the "potential" success I had read about in the company information could in fact be real success for anyone willing to put forth the necessary work.

One of these individuals had a background very similiar to mine. He was a top executive at a large Chicago-based firm. He spent at least three weeks out of every month on the road. The frequent travel and "always on" work environment was beginning to have a negative impact on his quality of life. It was time for a change...

This individual was introduced to USANA and after coming to his own conclusion that the company, products and business opportunity were unlike anything he had ever seen before, he too left the senior management corporate world to leverage his corporate experience to the full benefit of his family.

Within a relatively short period of time he was not only able to replace his corporate salary, but he was rewarded with something that was much, much, much more valuable- additional TIME to spend with his family and as a result, an imporoved quality of life! This individual's name is Lloyd Singer and he is featured in the video clip below.



Because I can see examples of success right in front of my eyes (in the form of the success achieved by my USANA mentors), I am ready to run faster, harder and stronger with and for anyone who is up for the exciting journey ahead!

If you keep in mind that the USANA opportunity is a vehicle that can be utilized to "drive" you towards the lifestyle that you would choose to live were money to be no object, then you too will get excited because you will realize that "objects (your dreams) are closer than they appear."

Hear from REAL USANA Associates (including Physicians, Professional Athletes and USANA founder Dr. Myron Wentz) about what sets the USANA opportunity apart from all the rest. Whether its time freedom, better health, or a fabulous opportunity you are searching for, you'll see- and want to be a part of- the USANA difference.
