The Kick-Start, Ab-Chiseling Warm-Up
A more effective warm-up than static stretching can consist of the elliptical, bike, stairmaster, jump rope, etc. Static stretching (when you stretch a muscle and hold it for 10-15 seconds) should not be performed previous to training, as research has shown that static stretching before training does not aid in preventing injury and it also decreases force production (Landin, et al, 2008), which will be detrimental to the client’s performance in the workout. The warm-up should consist of something to...

Going for Green Tea
I am a coffee lover. I love the smell of it brewing in the coffee pot in the morning, I love the way it tastes and the way it perks me up in the morning (pun intended). However, I am a three cup (at least) coffee drinker per day, and I know the beating it...

Red Wine for Slim Waistline
My parents are European, and as far as I can remember red wine has been at the table with meals. In fact, my father makes his own wine every September from scratch. Picks his grapes, squishes them in his garage and presses that yummy juice into barrels where it ferments for months before being bottled...

Heart Health
Other than fat loss, it seems the most popular reason to perform cardio routines is for heart health. Helgurud, et al (2004) found high intensity aerobic exercise is superior to moderate exercise as well when studying stable patients with coronary artery disease.

Loving Compassion (Heart Chakra) Essential Oil Pre-Diluted Roll-On
DIGITALIS PURPUREA 200CK MD
I am very happy with Village Green’s products and fast, reliable delivery of orders.
Used this product to relieve constant digestion, gas and bloating. Immediately helped me pass gas and use the bathroom. Suffer from constipation and sibo and this knockdown bad bacteria overrunning my gut. Strong you will hear at first so take slow.
Self Manifestation (Solar Plexus Chakra) Essential Oil Pre-Diluted Roll-On
Packaged well. Product was on time as promised
This is the combination my nutritionist approves
Outstanding product and ingredients for eye health with great results
Village Green staff is outstanding and helpful, Louis, Tatiana, Kirstie, & Kala above and beyond
I have used this for many years and like it a lot and will keep on using it
I've been using this for decades. Natural, minimal chemicals that retard the development of stink producing bacteria. Long-lasting on the skin, and months of use per item.
I was asked to write a review I don't know if what I have to say would help but here it is. I am 74 years old and have trusted Village Green for years. Trust is something you earn in my opinion, and they have fulfilled their side of each purchase with professionalism, and I fulfilled mine with loyalty.
Good product
