Is there any 'Holland & Barratt' type shops?

Can anyone recommend a shop in the South of TF that is like a 'Holland & Barratt'. For those who don't know them, they sell health food items, organic makeup/creams etc and vitamins/sport supplements.
Thanks for your help.

There's one in Avenida Suecia in Los Cristianos. Go from behind the church down the one way street and it's about half way down on the right.

Hi Janet,
Thanks that's great. Their turnover will double, my husband already thinks that I am Holland & Barratts best customer

It's not actually a H&B, but it's definitely a health-food shop.

The majority of the Farmacias here also stock herbal remedies.

I am so impressed with the alternative medicine facilities over here, much better than in the UK.

But look out for any "Herbolario"

Yes, I understand, H&B will be sad to loose my trade hihihihi

The one in the CC where Hiper Trebol is by the Adeje roundabout isn't bad and is certainly very convenient - easy parking. There is a great one in Los Cris called Luna Nueva near the post office, and another Herbolario down the road from the bus station on the same side. There is also quite a good one in Playa San Juan called Aloha. It's down the main road towards the sea just round the corner from the bakers and the shoe shop that are by the sort of roundabout! Not great directions I know, but can't think of how else to describe it

.

Not sure how much they sell in the way of organic make up, but they all have great health food and supplements. Most will also order you anything they don't have.

Hi Rachel, Thanks that is very useful and I will certainly check them all out, sounds like I will get everything that I need.

The Egyptians used Organic Makeup, and also a lot of Arsenic.

There's a lovely health food shop in Las Galletas, one in San Isidro, one in El Medano as well!
