Sometimes we take for granted that everyone has shopped at a health food store at one time or another, but the fact is many people have never been in one. Reasons can vary from no interest, don’t know enough about it, maybe they think it's too expensive, or find it downright intimidating.

When the first health food stores in Canada started popping up here and there it was somewhere in the 1960's.  Most of the people involved were those who had almost lost their health and couldn't regain it through drugs or surgery so in desperation started searching for more natural ways.  Many got well with some lifestyle changes, healthy eating habits and incorporating things like basic vitamins, wheat germ, brewers yeast, apple cider vinegar and perhaps a few old "folk remedies" that were tried and true.  Then, of course, they wanted everyone else to know and have access to what they had used, thus health food stores had their beginning,

Over the years as the public became aware by word of mouth that people were getting well by using herbs, vitamins and healthy food choices, the demand for more and more has brought the health.  food industry to where it is today.  (Let’s face it folks, most of us want to keep all our body parts as each and every one serves an important purpose)

Health food stores carry everything a modern family needs.  Healthy personal care products like toothpaste, shampoos, soaps, cosmetics, deodorants, vitamins and herbs in handy pill form, dried herbs in bulk, bulk spices, organically grown food (rice, beans, cereals etc.) sugar-free juices (delicious), healthy snacks, soy products (organic), oils, butter without coloring, etc., etc.  Remember when Mom said "Eat your veggies"?  Well now we even have a blend of all the "green foods" in handy powder or pill form for those on the fast track.

As far as cost goes, we normally get what we pay for.  Quality is worth the price when it comes to our health.  Someone can always make it cheaper but at the expense of quality.
