Pesticides Linked to ADHD
A study published in the journal Pediatrics has linked the level of pesticides consumed in foods to doubling the risk of developing ADHD in children. Researchers used data collected from almost 1,140 children participating in the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's "National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey," including pesticide by-products found in urine. They found that in that group, 119 children met the criteria for ADHD. Children with substantially higher levels of a breakdown product of neurotoxic organophosphate...

The Magic of Muscles
Resistance and flexibility training are important to a well-rounded exercise program, but they’re often overlooked. I’ve seen people frustrated because they’re putting the time in on the treadmill but still don’t look or feel strong and toned. Many of my clients have purposely neglected weight training because they felt they would “get too big.” Without...

Staying Connected
A thought for today: stay connected with friends and family. Even with all of the devices at our fingertips to help us stay in touch, it’s so easy to get caught up in our lives that we forget to stay in touch. Think of what happens to a garden when it’s neglected. Flowers die, weeds...

Great taste! Great stuff

Fermented Cod Liver Oil & Concentrated Butter Oil Blend - Capsule

Pantethine

I have used these Quick Stop bandages for years they are great. When I got them in the mail a day later my son’s dog scratched my arm real bad. I’m so glad I had them. It took 6 of the bandages to cover the wound. I wish that they had larger ones. I will always keep using them. Thank you so much.

This product is amazing! I take 2 capsules about 45-60 min before shutting off the lights, and I drift into blissful sleep. I have tried so many products to help my sleep, but this is by far the best!

Vitamin D + K2 Liquid

Whenever I have a urinary tract issue, I turn to Uri-Control for relief.

I feel confident that Core Minerals supplies my body with what it needs.

Great product. Great company. Fast shipping.

Biotin

I am prescribed this detox kit from my biotheraputic oncologist. Village Green has the best price around. This kit helps me get through flu season as an elementary school teacher.

This has been a game changer for me I feel much more healthier.

I have now ordered this beet powder several times. I add it to my morning smoothie. It dissolves well, there is no noticeable weird beet taste to it and it makes my smoothie a much more "palatable" looking reddish-pink color (rather than the dull gray-brown it used to be from the protein and other powders mixed in with it). I like that I am getting heart health and other benefits without having to regularly consume beets!

PectaSol-C Professional - Lime Flavored Powder

ProOmega-D Xtra
