As a parent of two young athletes, I know the importance of proper nutrition, particularly when it comes to protein intake. Protein plays a vital role in the growth, development, and performance of young athletes.

from 579 reviewsI have used Newton's Menopause drops for years and have never had to take hormones. They are getting hard to find. I googled them and found them at Village Green Apothecary. I had never heard of Village Green and was a little leary of ordering from them, but I did anyway. They sent my order in a timely fashion with no problems.
good
When I was having reactions to everything, I tried MANY probiotics but reacted to all of them, finally I found this one, a low histamine probiotic...and it worked. Thank you :)
Makes us feel mentally more alert!rain
This is a great way for me to help my blood pressure. I would recommend.
I've been using this spray for a few years. Don't know how I'd get through sinus season without it!
Great!
I'm not sure of how to rate 5 Stars for this review but that is what I rate it. For some reason it's becoming hard to find this product and Village Green had it. I can say for Men it stops a receding hairline. I sure hope the product is not being discontinued.
New Traumeel Ointment
On 2 separate occasions, my cardiologist prescribed a statin drug, not because my LDL was high, but merely because I was a diabetic. The first time I only took it a few days as I read about them and decided I was not confident it would benefit me. The 2nd time, I took them for about 6 weeks and began losing my memory. Things I talked about all the time were suddenly impossible to access. I quit them again but the memory did not recover. Someone I trust was speaking one night on the benefits of Iodine therapy for brain fog and I started them soon after. It has been about 5 months now and while I still have trouble grasping a word occasionally, the fog has lifted. Just my experience.
