From time to time I have read different posts on Greenbush products. I am curious to know who has had success with their products. I am thinking that the HBA, although it worked somewhat for me, just might not be strong enough. And because I don't know how much if anything is actually in these pills, I am afraid to really add anything to my routine. I was checking out their site and their prices are pretty reasonable so I was curious to know if anyone could give me any insight! I have less than a month left of the HBA pills and haven't attained my goal yet, so I know that the three months aren't gonna get me there. Any help please?!?!?!  Kelly |

Hi Kelly, I have had a lot of success with Greenbush Enhancement Blend.  Like you I started with HBA, had success with it, but stalled. Then I switched to Greenbush...but I also continued to supplement the Bust Boosters until I got "don quai" tan lines.  The Bust Boosters have don quai, summer hit and I was tanning very quickly, ME NO LIKE FARMER'S TAN!   So...go for it! I do like their products, they are VERY reasonable, and I get their shipments REALLY FAST, like in 3 days. Got no complaints here. |

I really like GB too. Like Momi said, they ship super quick, and they've always included a small thank you gift in with the order. (Caffeine free blueberry tea, one time.) One thing to note is that they have a $5.95 flat shipping rate, so it's the same if you buy 1 item or 10, so to save money I always try to get as much in one order as I can.
Oh, Joel (at GB) is so great at answering any questions you have, he really seems to know his stuff!

Would I be better off buying the Enhancement Blend, or one of the kits? Either way, they are all pretty reasonable...but I think it would be better knowing exactly how much I am consuming...that way when it comes time to tweak, I can know how much to increase...
I am thinking about placing my order today...so any input would be helpful!
Thanks,
Kelly

I do know from Momi's experience, that you know your exact dosage with the Enhancement Blend. Hope that's something.

I think it was one of the kits that I was looking at when online last night. I know they listed the mg's on that, but would have to look again at the Enhancement Blends...I don't remember if they listed it on there or not. I will look again!

Looks like the Enhancement Blend has 575mg per pill. It does add that these are equal parts between the herbs they use...I believe they are Fenugreek, Wild Yam and...I forget which other one...but anyway, I don't know if I should start this way or buy one of the kits. Any ideas? I am thinking about getting some of the extract to use in massages. I think one of the kits include this, but not sure...short term memory loss going on here! I wanna place this order soon, so I can get started on it, but need a little assistance with what might be best since I am already taking the HBA. Help is appreciated, Kell |

K, Greenbush has a cap of 575 mg of SP, Fenugreek, and W/Y. The jury's out to whether or not W/Y (Wild Yam) is really of any BE importance. IMHO(in my honest opinion), I'd go with the my own individs of SP, Fenugreek, and RC, especially if you have no problems with PMS. RC has phyto-estrogen and PR-blockers. [ftp]www.betterlife.com[/ftp] or [ftp]www.vitacost.com[/ftp] are great sites for getting individ herbs and extracts. There u have it, my two cents.  Oh, I will add, that Momi' used the Enhancement extract (which she says is rather putrid in smell) for massaging. She's done fine with it....so, I guess you could start with that, if u so desire...or make your own. Don't forget about using ylang ylang or geranium oils for massage. Others have reported progress with their use. I've done well with added peppermint extract in my batter. |

I'm another GB fan, loved their stuff!! Yes, super quick shipment. Although I grew from buying other brands, I believed the GB to be the most pure of the ones I've tried and credit most of my growth from it. I didn't buy the blend but their individual herbs and got good results from it. Good luck!!

Well I kept looking at their site and just kinda felt like I was still unsure of which route to go with...so I sent an email to see what might be recommended. They are really quick to send a reply! It took a total of 30 minutes...I have never gotten a response so quickly. Anyways, Joel said that the Enhancement Blend might be pretty good in my case since I have been taking commercials for over 2 months now. Said that the kits as well as the individuals were great too....so that basically made me decide to go with the Enhancement Blend...and the extract for massages...since the HBA stuff, in my opinion, doesn't really do anything for me. I am hoping that these will work out great. I am encouraged since so many either use or have used their products. Thanks for all the help, I will be placing my order tonight! Yea me!!! ;D I guess I will keep the HBA for maintainance since I don't have enough left to sell really...lol... Also, is it the Greenbush extracts that make u smell like u just stepped out of the IHOP? Should I add something to mask the smell? I was checking out others posts on the infamous boobie batter and saw that some were using peppermint extract...is this why?  Kelly |

Yep..peppermint oil it two for one..helps with smell, and is a vascillatory, so helps stimulate good circulation, great for pushing around estrogen to store good fats. |

Do I need to start slow with these? The reason I ask is cuz I have been on HBA for a while now...but I don't wanna overdo it too quickly. I know these are pure, and who knows how pure the commercials are! I should have these by the end of the week...so I wanted to know if I should start out with these as though I have never taken herbs before...like for the purpose of allergic reactions. Any advice would be helpful! Kelly |

Hi Kelly, You are doing EXACTLY what I did. Did HBA, then switched to Greenbush. What I did and did NOT experience any problems was supplement 1 HBA for 1 GB. If you are out HBA, then go for 2 caps for the first day, see how you react. Then go for broke. Take the full dosages 3x daily. When I switched I was taking 3 Ehancement caps 3x daily. Which equaled 1.8g. Now I am taking 2 caps 3x daily, mainly cuz I have lost weight and it doesn't seem to take as much to get sensastions. Plus gives me some "tweaking" room. Hope that helps Kelly! |

Hey Momi,
Just got the Greenbush stuff today. So excited to get started with them. I still do have some HBA left over, although not a whole lot. I went to go get the peppermint extract...and go figure they had none...either alot of people really enjoy baking with this...or there are alot of women out there doing BE that aren't telling us...lol...,I swear to u, there wasn't any left in the store. The only thing close was just mint. So I thought, hey why not. We'll see if it works...ever tried it? Maybe I'll check back in a week or so to see if they've restocked!
I was thinking that I would finish tonight with the HBA and wait til tomorrow to start the Greenbush herbs. Plus, I have to go to the dentist at 7AM tomorrow...just one big exciting day for me!!!
I will keep everyone updated on any progress from time to time...hopefully these will work better for me. I still haven't recovered from my deflation at all...so hope this helps me bounce back!
Thanks for the help,
Kelly
