Surgery & Trauma
No products match your criteria
Physical trauma, whether resulting from an accident or surgery, requires an increased supply of nutrients in order to support the healing process. Specific nutrients can enhance tissue repair, reduce bruising, swelling, scarring, and pain. In terms of surgery, having both a pre and post-operative health plan can greatly speed healing. A comprehensive nutrition plan that incorporates a healthy diet, plenty of rest, as well as nutritional support can help to ensure that the body has what it needs in order to heal properly. It is important to discontinue the use of potential blood thinning nutrients and medications prior to surgery.

Essential Products for Surgery & Trauma
Proteolytic Enzymes
Proteolytic enzymes refer to the various enzymes that digest protein. Often used to enhance digestion, proteolytic enzymes also fight inflammation. Pathway PROLYT contains a synergistic blend of full strength enzymes, in addition to the bioflavonoids quercetin and grape seed pycnogenols. These nutrients ensure protein digestion and normal inflammatory response, blocking the enzyme that gives rise to histamine. This blend also helps to maintain strong connective tissue and trap free radicals. Proteolytic enzymes are shown to be helpful in speeding up post-surgical recovery.
Recommended: Pathway PROLYT
Glutamine
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body. Glutamine is depleted by stress, physical injuries and inflammation, in areas like the intestine. It promotes muscle growth, stops muscle depletion caused by the stress hormone cortisol and it is an alternative fuel source for the brain when glucose is not readily available. Glutamine can rebuild lean tissue after periods of convalescence, surgery or muscle wasting illnesses.

Optional Products for Surgery & Trauma
Zinc
Zinc supports healthy skin, bones and hair, and is a key component for hundreds of necessary enzymes. It is also needed for the support of other antioxidants and is important for wound healing. Unfortunately, zinc is often deficient in American diets. Make sure you're getting enough with this carefully formulated combination of zinc picolinate and zinc citrate, blended with the coenzyme form of Vitamin B-6 to ensure rapid absorption.
Recommended: Pathway DOUBLE ZINC PLUS
Vitamin C
Vitamin C plays an important role as an antioxidant, immune enhancer, and manufacturer of collagen. It is vital for wound healing, healthy gums, and preventing easy bruising. Vitamin C is a key immune system nutrient and a potent free-radical fighter. Vitamin C has been shown to have protective effects for many illnesses. Pathway SYNERGY C is an advanced comprehensive product. This unique formula contains a combination of Vitamin C forms plus powerful helper nutrients for added anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

Let customers speak for us
from 588 reviewsJust started taking this mag glycinate. Hoping it will help with sleep issues.
Highly recommended by my acupuncturist! It is a powerhouse!
I started useing this at first sign of tingling like others have mentioned and I reapply every two hours throughout the day . Its strong stuff just a thin layer needed. I'm on day 3 of use and my cold sore is 1/3 the size it normally gets . And no pain or irritation . I feel like it's starting to heal up already . Recommended to keep useing it even past the time you think it's going away. I really like this but have to eat tic tacos cause leaves strong taste in mouth . It's totally worth it !!!
I stated taking Nattokinase as part of a precautionary Spike protein detox. Since this is a preventative for me, not a corrective hard to tell if it’s working. But, it’s also supposed to help with Cardiovascular function.
it's very helpful to treat my allergies and sinus indeed. Works well!!! Thank you!!
Magnesium (citrate)
Gets rid of my cough quickly. Arrived promptly. I recommend.
I appreciate the very prompt and helpful service
I live in the desert. My sinus’s are always dry and in the spring I am bothered by allergies when certain plants start blooming. I prefer not to take allergy meds since they make me tired so I rely on this and herbal nasal spray to get me through.
I 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!
