Swiss Kriss bulk is a lovely facial steam
My husband has been taken this as directed now for 4 weeks. It has helped him to cut down on his munching and grazing in the pantry at night. He loves that he has cut down on portion size and has lost 7 lbs so far. Very good product for him. Gave him the ability to do what he was already trying to do - cut back on food intake. This just made it easyier for him. Thx
Vitamin D3 Plus K2
I got very good advice about products I am currently taking, as well as ideas for replacement products that were more reasonable.
you had the products I wanted at reasonable prices and the ordering process was easy and helpful
I’ve been mixing the calendula oil with my regular body lotion, and my skin is ecstatically happy. And I smell great as well. Will purchase again.
I take them at night and they do not upset my stomach!
I visited Brian at Village Green in person in July 2026. He was a wealth of information.
My knee feels so much better, and with just enough pressure to hold it together without feeling constricted. Definitely use the size guide - I would never guess I was an XL, but it fits perfectly.
