“Let food be thy medicine; and medicine be thy food.” – the words of Hippocrates
In an ideal world, the food we eat would all be produced ethically and sustainably, devoid of chemicals, pesticides and antibiotics. But in the real world, that’s sadly not the case — the food industry lost its way decades ago, no thanks to a few greedy stakeholders more interested in turning a profit (selling GMO- and mass-produced crops) than in the wellbeing of our planet and its inhabitants.
But there is some good news… Over the past two decades the world has seen a rise in the demand for (and supply of) naturally produced food – a movement, we’re pleased to report, that is trickling down to United Kingdom shores.
Healthy, chemical-free living is no longer a pooh-poohed and overlooked alternative, it’s become a bona fide movement, driven by conscious consumers demanding answers about the provenance and quality of the food they eat.
We have compiled a list of some stores in London, UK that are selling healthy, organic food products.
We understand that these may not be the only health and organic food stores in London, so if you know of any store that should be on this list, do not hesitate to contact us.
