Great decaf medium roast coffee. Wonderful
Everyone is knowledgeable and patient. Also, they have a variety of options and products.
Beef Gelatin Unflavored
Very effective when I combine it with slow release melatonin at night for sleep and stress. This was recommended to me by my functional medicine doctor. The allergy free type is good for people with food sensitivities.
Organic Bacopa really does help with my memory. I can tell the difference if I forget to take it!
This product works for me. Was hounded by my dr to start statins because she thought my numbers were dangerously high. I said absolutely not and added Cholesterice. Over this past year my ‘bad’ number is down 50 points and is staying down. Awesome product which really helped me.
Very glad I found Beberine to give me an assist with pre-diabetes and heart disease. Seems to be working really well.
