You can find natural products (bamboo toothbrush, chemical free toothpaste, body lotions, soaps) as well as unique stone jewelry, incense, essential oils, you get the picture. The naturopath was helpful in finding supplements for my needs. Another employee was a pleasure to chat with and she guided me through the entire store as I went on a mini shopping spree! If you enjoy a personalized, informative non pushy shopping experience definitely check this place out. Great for gifts too. They have mini incense variety packages and cute stones etc. They will help you find something that suits the person you are buying for. They also have an in store loyalty program.

I have been going to this store that sells health supplements, Ki Nature et Santé for years and…read moreyears. There are two stores; one on St Denis and one in Pointe Claire. The proprietor is Peruvian born Juan Wong. He studied pharmaceutical studies and graduated as a pharmacist. You can buy supplements anywhere but at 'Ki' there are naturopaths and Mr. Wong, himself who are available to advise you on lifestyle changes and which supplements can be effective, taking into consideration the medical condition of the client...and even what medications the person takes. Several years ago I was plagued with very itchy hives (urticaria) that would not go away. They had become progressively worse over the years, at that point erupting constantly. My quality of life was compromised. I visited two dermatologists and an allergy doctor who prescribed antihistamines...for life. The side effects were debilitating. After 8 months on the drugs, I went to see Mr. Wong at Ki Nature et Santé and the first thing he said was to stop eating all carbs (no bread, no sugar, no pasta or cereal etc.., not even fruit). and to eat protein and plenty of vegetables. I did as he said and two days later I was off the antihistamines...and the hives did not return! After a week, I decided to reintroduce a bit of bread and the hives started to return. I stopped all carbs again and they went away. I was only able to slowly reintroduce carbs after a month. To this day, hives will only start to return if I overdo the carbohydrates. It was Mr. Wong who explained that carbs increase inflammation in the body. And as we know, inflammation is at the base of so many diseases. I sent an acquaintance, someone newly arrived in Canada who was hit suddenly with a severe case of lupus, to see Mr. Wong at Ki in Pointe Claire. When I see the wife of this person, she cannot say enough about the help her husband received from Mr. Wong. Mr. Wong also keeps on top of the latest medical research and studies. He has helped many of my friends and family members with a variety of conditions. I thank him and his team at Ki for years of invaluable advice and recommendations.

They say they have "bulk delivery". You decide…read more Ali once claimed I was the St. Henri store's first customer. I have type-2 diabetes. Which I've mentioned multiple times to ALI, as I've tried for 40 years to get him to carry stevia, the only acceptable sugar substitute for diabetics (according to my doctor). So much fun realizing they just eliminated it from their shelves...altogether. But it was this bulk grain order that's turned me off this store, perhaps for good: I ordered 5 X 20KG bags of grain. Kamut, Spelt Rye, Buckwheat and Oats. The Kamut, Spelt, Rye and Oats arrived in a reasonable amount of time. And, as I am handicapped, Ali brought it right up to the third floor. Nice. I haven't seen any sign of the buckwheat, in the 5 months since. Despite Ali giving his word it was coming. But the oats were the kicker. "Not fit for human consumption" is the description I'd give them. Every mouthful a festival of oat husks, and I'm spitting that &^%%$ out for an hour after every breakfast. I told Ali about it, days after it was delivered, and again, he gave me his word it'd be replaced. 5 months later, I'm still waiting. When the weather's good enough for me to get to the store, with my two canes and without my ebike, limited to about 3 blocks range...I limp to the store and I'm told that "Ali doesn't want to deal with this." Well. I don't exactly want to deal with an enormous bag of pig-oats, which I'm now forced to eat every day. I NEED oats for my diet. And there's no way I can carry a 20KG bag downstairs to throw it out. So now I'm forced to eat BAD oats I don't like...and to wonder why I'm being treated so shoddily. So "bulk delivery"??? Meh. Use TAU

And if you bring your own bag, they just shove your purchases to the end of the counter and expect you to pack your bags yourself--paying premium prices for premium product and they just shove you off on your own. Their selection is somewhat limited at least at this location, although the store itself is fairly large. They also are frequently out of products--their organic cream, for instance, is completely out two out of three visits. We've been here about 7 times since we're new to the neighborhood but have since found much better natural food stores. Would love it if this place was even passable, since it is very convenient for us, but I think it's going to be a pass for us in most cases going forward.

They were known as the first natural products grocery store in Quebec over 35 years ago at the corner of Rachel and Berri Streets. Customers here love the organic, natural or local products free from chemical preservatives, additives, artificial flavors and colorings.

The prices area competitive in terms of organic stores is concerned, but definitely higher priced that a Provigo or IGA.

So I have to follow the keto diet now under doctor's orders,…read morewhich isn't a biggie since it's high on meat, lots of veggies, especially leafy green vegetables, full fat dairy (yay!) and some fruits. Meaning no more carbs, potatoes (and especially French fries which I love) bread, rice and sugar. I'm a big curry and stir-fry cooker at home so letting go of rice and noodles is hard for me. After doing a ton of research online, there are now keto-friendly breads sugar substitutes like munkfruit sugar and erythritol and rice and noodle substitutes like Shirataki Konjac rice or Konjac noodles, made from a Japanese tuber named Konjac which is very low in carbs. OK now I know what to get but where to get it without breaking the bank at specialty health food stores? I found a lot of keto dry ingredients at other places but keto bread and rice was still hard to find at an affordable rate. Well, I found the best prices for Konjac products here at Rachelle Bery. I also found frozen keto-friendly bread here which I haven't found anywhere else. I saw a lot of other specials here to like Veggie Stix snacks. Going keto doesn't have to mean going bankrupt but at least now, I know where I can find some options.

The selection of essential oils was modest but there were actually oils there that I've never heard of before, and I know my essential oils pretty well, so I was quite excited by this. I ended up taking home some familiar ones: black spruce, tropical basil, atlas cedarwood and your standard issue tea tree oil. The spruce/basil combo is going to make an excellent new beard oil for my manfriend, and smells nice on my skin, too. The oils were priced better than I've seen anywhere else I've looked in the city, so this will definitely be my go-to place for essential oils. The store also has a modest selection of natural soap and personal care products, spices and dried foods, legumes, etc on shelves as well as a packaged items in the back, such as coconut oil. It's definitely more of a specialty, rare goods type shop more so than a one-stop shop. There's also a great loyalty card program here, where you eventually get 10% off your purchase. The woman I interacted with behind the counter was really friendly and personable, and I felt extremely welcome there. Happy to have made a new acquaintance in the 'hood!

Their selection of vitamins is rather poor and so is their stuff knowledge about vitamins and health food.
