SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- USANA is proud to
announce it officially broke the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS
title for Largest gathering of people dressed as scientists
on August 16 in conjunction with the
company's 25th anniversary celebration at its annual
International Convention in Salt Lake
City.
To break the record that was previously set by Stivichall
Primary School and friends in Coventry,
United Kingdom on July 9,
2016, USANA needed more than 489 people to dress as
scientists – wearing a white lab coat, goggles, and test tube or
beaker – in an organized space for five-minutes. With an official
GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS adjudicator in attendance, the
company broke the existing record with 893 participants.
"At GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS, we celebrate impressive
achievements from around the globe," said Andrew Glass, official GUINNESS WORLD
RECORDS adjudicator. "The tremendous efforts of the USANA team
have resulted in a successful attempt to break the GUINNESS
WORLD RECORDS title of Largest gathering of people dressed
as scientists. We congratulate and welcome them into the
GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS family."

"USANA is celebrating a large milestone this year and we
thought, what better way to celebrate than by attempting to break a
GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title," said Dan Macuga, USANA's chief communications and
marketing officer. "This company was built on groundbreaking
science and industry-leading technology, so breaking the
GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title of the 'largest gathering of
people dressed as scientists' is a perfect way to pay homage to
USANA's 25 years in science and its founder, Dr. Myron Wentz."
This year, USANA's International Convention is focused on
celebrating the company's past and looking towards its future. It
is also a chance for the more than 11,000 USANA distributors in
attendance from all over the world to learn how to better build
their USANA business and to be health leaders in their
communities.
All proceeds from purchased USANA-branded GUINNESS WORLD
RECORDS scientist kits went to USANA's True Health Foundation.
The total amount raised came to $57,935, which equals 231,740 boxed meals for
families in need.
