Health Food Stores vs The Supermarket II

People sometimes have a difficult time with the idea of living a healthy lifestyle.  One problem people have reside in false notions about health food store items.  They believe that they aren't as good as the products that are toxic or processed; nothing is further from the truth.  The health food stores just offer more choices; often healthier choices.  Many of the products I buy are just as effective and they are healthier in the long run; in other words, they are BETTER.

I admit, it took me a while to find good and effective natural products that I’m happy with on a whole.  This is why I post information about my favorite products.  At least my readers won’t have to look too far unless a product isn’t available where they are.  This is a real bummer for me as well as you when it isn't.  The good news is, often these products can be purchased online if not from your local health food store.  Often, you can buy them online at a cheaper price than at a health food store too.

So where should YOU shop?  Well, many supermarkets have a health food isle.  Of course, I would only take that route if you want to limit your choices or if you already know that the supermarket carries a health food product at a better price.  Furthermore, it doesn't hurt to comparison shop.  For example, my husband found organic lemons at Wal-Mart for a NICE price a couple of months ago.  A Colorado supermarket chain is currently expanding their selection of organic produce which will make it easier for people who don't live very close to health food stores.

As long as you know what you are looking for, a supermarket may not be an entirely bad place to shop.  Just understand that your choices aren't limited to highly toxic foods and products that supermarkets usually offer.

  1. Many brands assume that once a retailer agrees to sell their product the job is done and that the employees of the retailer will ensure that their product is stocked and on the shelf for people to buy. Unfortunately, this is often not the case. Obviously, the cost to a brand when its product is not on the shelf is substantial.
